Here's the place to post if you want anything changed on the sh0ttyfest server. Maps you'd like to see added, server settings you would change, etc. Not all the suggestions will necessarily be implemented. Also, don't ask to change away from the current shotgun format.

We value your helpful input!

Rotation:
cs_12gauge
office_shottie_mania_v1
aim_ak-colt
hh_sgassault_expanded
fun_windtunnel_fix
aim_map_usp
shotgunknivez
ms_shotguns
awp_map_rm

Other maps (not on rotation, but admins can ma_vote):
Funmaps:
aim_deagle7k
scoutzknivez_2008
fun_allinone

Shotty:
aim_47th_nightoftheshotgun
shotty_coloured
joop_shotty_map_b13
shotty_rem!x

All of the maps on/off the rotation can be seen with ma_listmaps (as long as you're an ad-man).

Misc. settings
10 minute maps (7 minute non-sh0tty)
225 gravity (normal grav non-sh0tty)
500 airaccel
Unlimited ammo

On another note...now that a few of you have played the rotation extensively, we can start doing some custom map configs. I've already started this a little, if you look at the rotation list above, I put different gravity on some maps.

If there's a map you hate switching to, tell me and tell me why. If it seems pretty universal, we can either take it off the rotation or set up a custom config to make it stay on that map for less time or whatever.

If there are other custom tweaks you'd like to see on a map-by-map basis, feel free to post them.

you guys need to advertise the server more in main or something get more of a constant population going so that its not just n00bs playing

yes sir

I editted the manimod adverts file for the main server so we should have some automatic shout-outs every now and then...but admins repping it is always appreciated.


On a separate note, some people (like SK-XIII) really like knife rounds. Admins can use ma_knives to make the next round a knife round, but you have to put ma_unrestrictall during the knife round to make the next one return to shotties.

bind f1 "ma_knives"
bind f2 "ma_unrestrictall"

This lets you hit f1 to make the next round a knife round, and then hit f2 during the round to make the next return to shotguns.

DON'T ABUSE THIS ABILITY. A few knife rounds a map is plenty to keep things interesting; if admins are setting way too many knife rounds I'll have to change the server config to restrict that command to higher ranks.

good stuff judi! lol. i didn't even kno cadets had that power till today.

also, for those that want to, u can advertise the shottyfest server with this command in console

bind <key> "ma_say Join us at our ShottyFest server! 63.209.35.80:27015"

Also, we're going to try something new out as far as the rotation goes.

Every 2 shotty maps (10 minutes each) there will be a 5 minute aim map. These maps will have normal gravity, and hopefully provide a little break from the shotgun chaos. For now, the three maps will be aim_ak-colt, awp_map, and aim_map_usp. I've also added these maps to the rtv nominate list. You can see the change on the rotation listed at the top of this thread.

-shotty_rem!x is off the rotation; the map is too big and provides too many places to hide, even without camping it's easy for people to go around in circles following each other.

-ms_shotguns stays on for now; it's a simple map, rounds go by quickly. If the water makes you lag, I recommend setting your reflections to simple in the advanced video options, that's how I have mine set and it's smooth.




And just for you, purple, airaccel is now 500.

Another power not to abuse.

I've seen way too many people spam the F*CK out of the Main with that crap.

Added 5 seconds of spawn protection on awp_map_rm.

how about Scoutsknivez?????????

Oops, I only tested spawn protect to make sure it was working on awp_map...didn't check if I had blocked it right on the other maps. Fixed!
