website: http://elementxclan.blogspot.com/
forum: http://elementxclan.forumotion.com/

We hope you join :D.

This is both the forum and game FAQ.
Here are some answers to some common questions floating around the forum...

Forum FAQ:
- Q: How can I change my forum avatar?

A:Avatars in this forum are linked to a global site called gravatar.
By creating an account on Gravatar (making sure that you use the same email address as that you use on the forums), and uploading your custom avatar to their site, it should automatically synchronise the two accounts within a few seconds.

- Q: How does the text formatting work here?

A: The basic formatting information is displayed to the right of the text box you use to create a post, but here are the tags again:
Create a link: <a href="">Create a link</a>
Write some code: enclose your code within ` (commonly used for quoting other users also)
<strong>Write in bold</strong>: <strong>Write in bold</strong>
<em>Write in italics</em>: <em>Write in italics</em>
And lastly:<blockquote>Write inside a blockquote</blockquote> (this entire paragraph is in a blockquote)

- Q: My threads are being closed/posts being deleted - why?

A: Likelihood is you are breaking the forum guidelines.
These are the guidelines that both users and administrators should follow. At the end of the day, it is the admin team's discretion on whether a thread/post stays or goes (based on the guidelines).
Excessive arguing about the discretion in thread will likely provoke an admin to punish, so all complaints about such matters need to be presented and dealt with in an official manner through posting an aptly named thread in the Support forum.

- Q: How can I be a good user on the forum?

A: In one sentence: follow the forum guidelines.
In more than one sentence: keep thinking whether what you say is related to the topic and is not some junk and/or designed to provoke anyone. Keep threads as 'clean' as possible and make sure than any links to external websites are not advertising products or hacks of any kind.

- Q: How can I edit the title of my own thread?

A: Click on the 'edit' button by the original/first post you made, and change the title from there.

Game FAQ:
- Q: How can I change my ingame name?

A: Your ingame name is defined in the 'config.ini' file in your Ace of Spades installation folder.
So to change it, simply go to your Ace of Spades folder (often 'C:\Program Files\Ace of Spades'), then open the file 'config.ini'.
Inside there is the line 'name Deuce' - simply change 'Deuce' to the name that you want (remembering to keep a space between 'name' and the name you choose).

If you get permission errors, then you shall need to: copy all the contents out of 'config.ini', paste it into notepad, delete the original 'config.ini', now change your name in notepad as described above, save it onto the desktop as config.ini (remembering to make sure it's saved using 'All Files' option rather than '.txt' if using notepad), then copy/paste that desktop 'config.ini' back into your Ace of Spades folder.
Step-by-step video of this process can be found here (Thanks to Andrea for the video).

- Q: What is the purpose/goal of this game?

A: Ace of Spades is an FPS (First Person Shooter) with sandbox terrain. The goal is to capture, and return to your Command Post (marked as a team-coloured '+' on the map), the enemy Intel (marked as a square in the opposition colour).
By capturing, you increase your team's score and you receive the ability, for one minute, to see all enemy movements (as red circles on the map). You have limited ammunition on your player, but you can restock your supplies at your own Command Post.
You have two digging tools, a rifle and some grenades. The pick-axe is used to gather blocks, destroying one block at a time; the spade is used to destroy three blocks at a time (destroys the block you point at, plus the blocks immediately above and below it - useful for making tunnels).

- Q: How can I play the game on linux?

A: using WINE. Details on how to do this can be found on the Wiki.

- Q: How can I play the game on mac?

A: Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?8zhioibefcxb0ak
Unzip then right-click on the app and select "view contents" to access the config.ini file.
(Thanks goes to knottycorpse for creating the original app, and Pwaa for highlighting and updating it)

- Q: How can I remove the fog?

A: You can't, and it is considered a hack if you do so..

- Q: How can I change my controls?

A: Unforunately control-changing functionality has not been programmed into the game, however Ben Aksoy (the developer) has said that custom key bindings are on the agenda for future updates.

- Q: I cannot load client.exe, what is wrong?

A: Ace of Spades works by webpage sending information to 'client.exe' to load it automatically with the correct settings. This means that you can't just load 'client.exe', you must choose a server from the play page and let it load itself.
Currently there is no GUI (Graphical User Interface), however some members of the community have created their own alternative server browsers with nifty extra features, more notable ones being listed here.

Hi, I have noticed people have wanted the original game files and have posted for help on the forums, most of the time they get "Just re-install the game". Well I have put all the default files and put them in a zip folder and uploaded them on mediafire. This includes every game file as of Beta 0.60. I personally just wanted to help so people would stop complaining.

Well here's the link:

Your welcome,

Some sad but very true tales of ace of spades.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7K-pY7purDI&feature

Just making fun of the games quirky parts of the community.

Make a client with in-game serverlist. Also: medkits.

Can someone make this for me but with a orange ball not blue, http://www.hitechreview.com/uploads/2010/12/PlayStation-Move-Sharp-Shooter-Attachment.jpg

Thanks.

CAN I ALSO HAVE ARMS ON ALL OF THEM?

Alright, I'm not sure if outdated forum games are allowed here, but what the hey...

In this game, the objective is to appropriately screw up the wish made by the person who posted last, and then make one yourself.

For example:
Poster 1: "I wish for an anti-virus thats not fake, but works"
Poster 2: "You get Norton, which is the worst anti-virus ever. I wish my house was warmer"
Poster 3: "Your house burns down. I wish [etc etc etc]"

You get the idea.
Oh and remember, no flaming or overly offensive stuff, though that should be kinda obvious I guess.

Right, well seeing as I'm the first poster, I guess I'll start.

I wish that i had more upload speed.

Heres how this works: Write 3 good things about the person above you (make them good... don't be a dick or a clown).

<+HeyJD> http://www.abc.net.au/tv/goodgame/video/default.htm?src=/tv/goodgame/video/xml/20110809_2030.xml&item=07
<+HeyJD> ^^ That is Ace of spades being mentioned in an Australian Game reviewing show.

the AoS footage is shown for only a few secs @ 4:09 but watch the whole thing, it's an interesting 5 mins

We are currently making and sharing, "Custom Packs : Character : Weapons :Sounds"
We accept suggestions.
Everything was made from SCRATCH, so if you use this pack somewhere else, please give us credit.

{Indian Pack}

First pack I (StpdKlown) ever created. I felt like making a pack, that included arrows and bows, and who use arrows and bows more than anyone else? Indians, back then, of course. Spent maybe 16 hours creating this. Had problems to fix and more!

1. Download one of the packs.

3. Open your Ace of Spades folder.
4. Last, drag the folders into the Ace of Spade folder.

Perhaps they can add a weapon shop with a shotgun, rifle and a proper sniper? or multiple snipers, rifles, and shotguns. you get money from each point you have in games.Do you have any suggestions to add?

I wanted to start a private server so me and my friend could build the ultimate bunker on pinpoint and save it to use online once it is finished. He brought his computer over, and I started up the server by opening the Ace of Spades server application, and loaded the pinpoint.vxl (without the .vxl of course) set max players to 2, and said no to master server advertisement. I went to Spadille and went to favorites and loaded local server and it loaded up pinpoint with only me on it. Then he connected to my Wi-Fi and opened Spadille but there was no option to connect to a local network. Then he set up a server, but this time it said that the local server was either full or misconfigured. When I tried to reconnect to mine, it said the same thing, and now it won't work no matter what. What do I do?

since there are many class suggestions out there, i thought i might throw in my own ideas on the subject, this is an EXTREMELY simple class system
3 new things here:
Medpack: drop on ground, will despawn after 2 minutes, once picked up by a teammate it will bring their health back to 100
Supply box: drop on ground, will despawn after 2 minutes, once picked up if any teammate is low on ammo, blocks it will bring both ammo and blocks to regular
Pistol: does 40% the damage of the semi, and has less zoom and range.

Assault(SMG):smg/2 grenades/50 blocks
Sniper(Semi):Semi/2 grenades/50 blocks
Medic:Pistol/2 medpacks/50 blocks
Support:Pistol/2 supply boxes/80 blocks( blocks take 4 hits to take down as opposed to 3)

Basically, we want games.
If you can get your clan active enough (6 people-ish) for an agreed time, we'll gladly play if we can get the people on at the proposed time.
Bear in mind that the most of us are EU - based, so mid-afternoon/early evening for GMT would probably the best for us.

Thanks in advance,

I have a habit of minimizing games a lot to check things online. Whenever I do this while playing AoS I either return with 28 health or Die/Re-spawn. Is there a way to minimize the game without dying?

I think we need a general tactics discussion thread. I see lots of people are forgetting to use the advantages of this game. Few people build walls for cover when they see enemies coming, they rather strafejump, and die. Some forget to mend their walls in important places, and are surprised to be overwhelmed by the enemy. And some build bunkers and covers whithout questioning its usefulness, and waste lots of time with them. Lets change this.

So here is the point of the thread:
- discuss the tactics that are unique to this game (what, where, and when to build), even the most basic ones
- the tactics, that are considered good by the majority, could be collected and put in the wiki, so new players can read and learn from it

These would make the game a lot better, Ben!

1. serverconfig.ini
This would make the game so much better for server administrators. Options like map, player count, capture count, and server name could go in here. Scripts could then start server.exe much more smoothly, or in combination with scripts, as well as making server.exe much simpler for the server administrator, providing a console only for kicking. It would also open more options for server administration in the future, such as, perhaps, "registered users only", or perhaps a blacklist of certain nicknames.

2. escape context menu
Pressing escape to close the client is really handy. But it's also common for beginners to have difficulty locating config.ini, and there's some options that might be better handled in-game with an escape menu, like team, votekicking, or "main menu" as described below goes into effect...

3. client.exe
client.exe is only really nice for the end user right now when he wants to connect to a server, and even then, the server is called as an argument. It'd be really nice if opening client.exe would provide a frontend for config.ini (change nickname, resolution, so on) under a settings option, a server list (maybe under play?), and then a "help" menu with instructions for playing.

4. server list
If a clientside server list does go into effect, it'd be great if clicking on a server could show a short description (maybe number of players, team distribution, ping in relation to player...) could happen. If the serverconfig.ini happens, a description field could be used with this. And then, favoriting based on server name or IP would be a great completion. This could be as simple as a little star to the left of the name.

These would be things that would improve the quality of the game immensely without really affecting how it's played. I'm not an excellent writer, but the general idea of what I'm trying to convey should come across. I don't think it'd be incredibly hard to implement serverconfig.ini, at the least.

"BOB''

I was unsure where to put this, so off-topic will have to do:

I would like to request either this be a mod or for it to be included in the vanilla server!

I would like to be able to see the chat, kills, teamkills and the intel captures in the console. Just from a moderators POV if you lag your server by being in-game there's not much point you being in the server, so to moderate you need to have the ability to see the servers 'chat' elsewhere, possibly in the console. That way you could communicate with the players, and after confirming the situation with the players kick and or ban someone.

(i would also like to have accounts and banning of the accounts, but i cant ask for everything straight out :P)
Thanks
Nico

i cant login to a server because when the DOWNLOADING MAP bar fills completely.... the gameplay window closes. PWEASE HELP MEH!!!

Hello people of the Game,
It would greatly please me if someone can enlighten me on a way to run this on Snow Leopard without installing Windows.
Thanks,

If crossposting is prohibited, then sorry.
In the first place, though, I don't know if it's considered crossposting since it's linking, but yeah.

1. You can build on top of a player. This can get him inside the unrendered part of the voxels, +leaving him stuck. The only ways out are suicide or waiting for someone to dig you out.
2. Looking straight down or up is jerky and adds charm to the game, but you can see every entity (players, intel, tent) through the block you're standing on/right over you. I've killed a few people using this AND was killed by a few people because of this.

This is something that I wrote in another thread, but it was mixed in with a bunch of other stuff. In my opinion, these three classes would be balanced and add variety to the game.

Solider: This is what we have now. A rifle, 2 grenades, 50 blocks, all that jazz. This one would stay the same.

Technician: This guy would be the "builder." He wouldn't get grenades, and he would be armed with a pistol (if pistols are being added). His main ability would be a second block type. It would be in the 5th inventory slot (were the grenades are). Placing this block would take away 5 blocks from your reserve. They would be light gray in color. They can only be destroyed by another technician (but would take 6 hits) and shovels won't affect them. The can also be destroyed by explosives.

Point Man: This would be the, well, the point man. He would get a shotgun. He would also get Dynamite instead of grenades. It can only be tossed one or two blocks, but blows up big after about 6 seconds. It would be useful for blowing a hole in Heavy Blocks made by Technicians.
(Shotgun: 7 pellets per shot. Each one does 25 points of damage regardless of hit position. The spread would be man sized at about 1/4 of the fog range.

This would add variety to a game that unfortunately is becoming stale fast (though is still major fun). It would also let you make fortifications that aren't made of wet newspaper. To get by these walls you would either need to bring a Technician (with a crappy gun) or a Point man to break through.

Thanks for reading, please don't flame ;-)
Discuss and tell me if you think it could work.

Hello people each time i try to install the game from the download link it loads a new page or ses that im denied from the page can someone tell me whats wrong.

Edit: Oh shit there's a wiki with a buildings page, please delete this

Gentlemen, this is a tutorial on how to set up a server without using Master Server verification.

Step #1

Download the following file: http://www.2shared.com/file/uVJJDlg3/AoSNoMaster.html (the file is from http://mango12.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=12425), and doesn't have any viruses in it. Scan it on virustotal if you want to be a douche.

Password to the file is "lol9000", without quotes.

Step #2

Place AoSNoMaster.exe into your Ace of Spades directory.
Once the file is in the directory double click it, and a window should pop up saying "Patch Complete!" (or something similar...)

Step #3

Run the server.exe and test it, I assure you it works!

!!!!MAKE SURE YOU'VE PORTFORWARDED ON PORT 32887!!!!

Step #4

To connect to your server, create a text file and insert the following into it:

client.exe xaos://16777343

Save it as "anything.bat", then run it, it should connect to your server

Step #5

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Step #6

PROFIT!

NOTE: Full credits to the user "saltwater" on Mango12 for releasing the patch!

I have a habit of minimizing games a lot to check things online. Whenever I do this while playing AoS I either return with 28 health or Die/Re-spawn. Is there a way to minimize the game without dying?

hi i finaly joind a sever and the window opens but it closes imedentlyand when i reopend it in closed again!?!?! any solutions?

I love the game, but I think it could use a little more variety. I'm not too fond of CTF, and I think the game could appeal to another group of people by just taking the flags out of the equation. Instead, you have the two teams spawn on either side of the map with just a very basic fort and then the rest of the game is up to them. I think we'd see a lot more creativity in the game if it were about the two teams vying for control of the map. Instead of the action taking place over one tunnel and mountain (as is usually the case right now), teams would formulate their own objectives and goals and build more freely.

Discuss.
