Hey guys,

Slate here from Adrenic.net, Recently we began hosting a 24/7 AoS server named BluevsGreen TDM. After tweaking some settings and what not and we've noticed that it's been fairly successful. AoS seems to have a bright future and i for one am a fan.

Due to the success i have been searching the forums and i stumbled upon the Simple Zombie Mode here: http://ace-spades.com/forums/topic.php?id=6429

What i'm wanting to know, is if we setup an additional server using that Zombie Mode, would the community here be interested? Or would the server be empty?

Setting up an additional server would be near effortless except for the fact that the AoS Servers do not have a Bind address feature, so it would have to be on an entirely different PC. That is why i'm here seeking feedback.

Thanks for reading,
Slate.

The best way to find out would be to test the theory in practice!

Dont use that version cause its not optimized and it lags and crashs loads use the optimized version ...

You Could also use my skin pack which has zombie mod support ...

Tbh, Idk about this zombie craze anymore.
I agree that Dany0 did a good job, but nowadays we're fussing over nothing.
Normal modes own zombies in every way, zombies just can't compete.
We need the mode to be more interesting.

^ you mean like having to upgrade guns buy ...

/buy smg

and upgrading bullets ?

/upgradebullets #

Idk, It just seems incomplete.

it would be could if you got points which you could buy stuff with... like blocks that take longer to break ...

Just do it.

Your feedback is now seeked.

I liked it when CH had a zombie server, and it was fairly popular.

Good Idea. Try it out

I would say... just try it :D I would be interested of course :3

The next day you run it you have permament 32 player server.

Here is the deal:

1.) You can have full zombies. This script is server heavy but it has a lot features, and I mean a lot. Also as an admin you have a lot control(zombie health, shotgun damage multiplier, how high do zombies teleport), as a player you have access to new zombie-optimized buildings(7 of them) and quick shortcuts( /q and /b ). I recommend it if you have a fast server. Oh yeah and the zombies can't place blocks. And humans can medic eachother, and zombies can change weapons w/o dying.

2.) You can have simple zombies, which is very little less server heavy but has almost all of the features. It's simply stripped down of the admin commands. Do not recommend.

3.) You can have the very simple zombies, which is the most stripped down and least server heavy version. Recommended for first-time admins.

4.) And then you have the zombie/classes pack. That's if you want overkill or players really really want classes. It kinda works but it's never been run on a 24/7 server so I can't tell how well would it be played. But I must say, when zombies are assasin and humans are sniper, it's kinda fun!

So basically choose between 1.) and 4.). Also 2.) and 3.) weren't really tested much, they work, 'probably'.

And hey, I waited for someone like you for some time >=((!

EDIT:
Oh yeah I forgot, try to have some kind of a fun map that's not a cliché. Eg. not pinpoint or izcool or anything like that. Island, Assault, South Park, Favela, TRB, this kind of maps.

You can make Normandy like the last zombies 24/7 server had, but I personally got bored with it :P

Also I will be working on a full zombie-optimized WTC9/11 map, it's gonna be fun!

I cant wait for a zombie server!

And slate? Visit the IRC.

edit:
and frosty? the development halted cause I can't run a server anymore and no one else runs it
