General Discussion / WSE2 Has Been Added
« on: June 16, 2017, 04:27:09 pm »
Since I still don't have permissions in the announcements forum and nobody posted a new thread about it I figure I would take the pleasure in letting you all now WSE2 is back on NA servers. EU servers should have WSE2 up soon (if it isn't done already). If you have any questions about EU Servers message Pestdoktor in Discord.

Now that WSE2 is fixed our goal is to get the custom banner system working and then pushing the patch that was slated for January. Once that is done we can finally start working on new content. Thanks for being patient with WSE2 and go kick some ass on the fully functioning server!

General Discussion / cRPG Discord Bot
« on: June 12, 2017, 02:52:25 am »
(Placeholder for cooler looking design)

If you manage a discord server and want this bot on your server click here: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=322930098846302208&scope=bot&permissions=3072

Added a discord bot that has a lot of nifty features that integrate with the cRPG servers. By typing !commands in the crpg_bot_spam channel on the discord server (also by direct message ot messaging in your own server) you can see the commands you can perform with this bot. Right now the most useful command is !servers which will show the populations and map that the servers currently have (updates every minute). Hopefully by next weekend I will have it to where you can ask the bot to PM you when server populations are above a certain number. For now it is kinda nifty to check the server population without having to go in game.

Let me know if there are any features you would like to see added as well. So far I only have a plan to add the server pop notification and it could use a bit more beyond that.

General Discussion / New Launcher Download
« on: June 03, 2017, 05:11:19 am »
Note 10:30 AM MST: Launcher will be down while I transition the downloads from bitbucket to a web server. Hoping to get it up pretty quick.

Download: http://crpglauncher.site.nfoservers.com/cRPGLauncher.exe

note: antivirus software will probably complain so if you are nervous feel free to scan it. It is the basically the same exe you have all ran before

Hey folks,

Finished up the launcher! It should be functioning at the same level it was before it broke and it actually has WSE2 as well (Big thanks to Lemon and Marcus and anyone else I forgot to mention!). Going to take a look at getting those servers up and running tomorrow but in the mean time, feel free to play on the Chinese server.

If there are any bugs with the launcher post on the discord, the cRPG Technical Problems forum, or PM me (Forum or Discord). There is a known bug where if you have an older version of WSE2 and try to launch the game it will fail. You can bypass this for right now by doing a clean install of Warband and then the running the launcher with WSE2 enabled. I should have a permanent fix for this Soon™.

Have a good weekend everybody!

General Discussion / All Points Bulletin for crpg_beta.exe
« on: June 02, 2017, 11:56:28 pm »
Could you guys check your Warband folder for a file called "crpg_beta.exe". It might be exactly what I need to make WSE2 work. It should only exist if you downloaded and played with WSE2 enabled so if you haven't no worries. Thanks!

Edit: Closed! Lemon helped me get it working. WSE2 will be included with the launcher

cRPG Technical problems / I don't have a problem but I do need assistance.

 I need my CD key transferred from a non-steam cd key to a steam CD key. Normally I think I would need to contact Meow to do this but he hasn't been around for awhile. If anybody knows who I have to contact to get this done:

General Discussion / Admin Abuse?
« on: October 03, 2015, 06:56:48 pm »
This post is not necessarily for everyone on this forum but mostly directed at the admins/people of authority. I was in TS with Jaren last night when he said he got banned when he wasn't in game. He posted in the Ban section about it and here is that post: http://forum.melee.org/na-%28official%29/banned-que/.

Apparently he had been shit posting in a ban thread here: http://forum.melee.org/na-%28official%29/ban-request-for-aldo_thedandydiddler-cairo-testicleez-ogerp-kennyfuckingpowe/ and got banned by Froyo for teamkilling.

In a reply from the above ban thread Froyo says that "Spam posters will be banned for obstruction of justice." Now my question is: why does Froyo get the authority to ban someone in game by just saying so on the forums? The rule Jaren broke was: "Do not post unless you have something case related to say. No spam allowed." The only info about punishment for spam is: "Failure to follow the above rules may result in a forum mute." Nowhere does it say there is any punishment that will be given in game.

 I agree that shit posting in the ban section is stupid and can prevent the ban from being dealt with but that is why admins can Mute people. In this case he didn't even mute Jaren or give him a warning on the forum. He just banned him in game. If you start banning people in game for things they do/say on the forums no one is going to be able to play. I know this community is a monarchy and admins can do whatever they want but this just seems a bit too ridiculous to let it pass.

So my question is to the all the admins out there: Was this a justifiable ban? Please note that I am not complaining as much as I am curious about other admins opinions.
Before I drop the mic I just want to say that I think Froyo is a very good admin.This one instance does not define who he is as an admin but something needed to be said.

General Discussion / Read This for the Love of God
« on: December 28, 2014, 10:03:59 pm »
This post is probably going to upset a lot of people, but I am tired of seeing posts about requests for changes. So let's begin.

M0d is dead (your filters cant stop me). That is pretty damn obvious but it is not because there isn't interest from players with the game, it is because there are no developers who are going to work on it. It has been about two months with no official hot-patch for the "patch of destiny", when fixes come within a few weeks at most. Considering there hasn't been any official patches then it is safe to say they haven't been working on any new content either. That also means any requests you guys have are probably not going to be considered because nobody has the time or patience to do anything on the dev team. Even the requests to convert to old cRPG will be overlooked and would probably be detrimental to the potential player base (will talk about that later). So for the last time NO NEW CONTENT IS COMING YOUR WAY, get used to it and accept it for what it is.

Now I do have a few theories as to why the "patch of destiny" is the last patch, but I could be completely wrong. The last patch was really oriented around helping out newer players. The free respecs and easier leveling really helps out the newbies more than the older and more experienced players. That makes this patch perfect to just leave it as it is and kinda forget about it. New players can come and not be demolished by more experienced players so the player base can grow a little bit. This patch could essentially be described as self sustaining, it doesn't really need balancing from a newbies stand point or anymore content. Again, this is a theory not fact so don't take anything I say as the truth. It is just my perspective of the situation and you can take what you want from it.

Why old cRPG won't come back: It is based around the fact that kills will give you more money and exp, which means you need to get kills to advance in the game. This is probably one of the worst systems for getting a larger and newer player base because you destroy all chances of the newbies getting any advancement. That is why it was most likely done away with in the first place. It only lets the rich get richer so to speak.

Please don't get any jimmies rustled over this post. I stand by the statement that I could be completely wrong. In fact if any dev would like to disprove me on any of these statements I would be stoked. I'm pretty sure everybody would like a god damn update on whatever the fuck is happening in this mod's development, not just me. I feel kicked under the rug as a player of this game for not being informed of what is going on. If M:BG is going to consume everyone's time now that's fine, just fucking say something so the players are not in the dark. See you all in the chamber of tears.

« on: November 19, 2014, 10:15:42 pm »
It costs you nothing right now and gives the game publicity on kickstarter! I don't want to play a piece of shit mod, I want a nicely functioning game that the developers actually care about! Please help make it happen!

General Discussion / Requiem for a Siege
« on: October 19, 2014, 11:40:05 pm »
I know this might be a long shot but I want to see if the revival patch has the ability make things right. Siege has been a POS for a very long time (as far as NA is concerned) and there needs to be change. Its really quite simple and its just one word:
(click to show/hide)
You bring back these babies and you open up a whole new reason to play siege. Make them only usable on siege and plan a new siege rotation to have maps that accommodate ladders. This also gives people a way to learn how to use ladders so they are not sucking it up on strat trying to get the ladder right. For the love of sweet baby jesus let this happen. It's been too long with out ladders, make it right. Discuss now.

Spam / Re: Ban Stratigos_Cosmas_Palailogos
« on: June 18, 2014, 12:19:18 am »
Taken from official server rules posted by cmp

Bolded the more relevant shit.

  • No leeching
    OK: Being a bad player and getting no kills
    NOT OK: Standing around away from keyboard. If you're away, switch to spectator mode
    NOT OK: Running around without no weapon. Not contributing is leeching, naked runners don't contribute. This point does not apply to Rageball, as long as you are actually playing the game.
    NOT OK: Autorunning your char to enemy to die

These seem to apply here. You could also do the whole chadz and common sense but meh.

General Discussion / Flags: Fix or Not to Fix, That is the question
« on: May 23, 2014, 03:49:09 am »
So recently I have seen a couple rounds where a team would have won if the flags weren't glitched. When I lose in this way it is a pain in the ass, but it is always fun to watch a decent player clutch the round with a good 1 v 5 victory. This makes me split on whether the flags should be fixed or not. If they fix the flags the sweet clutches are going to be few and far between, but on the other hand it is annoying as hell when you have to find the last guy who is afk in the corner in order to finish out a round. That is why I decided to make this thread, to see what the community thinks about the flag glitches and what the devs should do about. Attached is a poll that will not affect shit but show what you guys want. (For reference, a flag glitch is when a master of the field flag gets to the top and a team doesn't win.)
