The [FGS] Clan

Hi, Yeah I'm on both Steam (https://steamcommunity.com/id/aleksio/) and Discord (AlexR), feel free to add/message me. As for the upload page, I had to disable it because I moved the actual storage of the files away from the website itself. I'll try to reinstate the upload form soon'ish, will have to...

Actually, Sunny Side is still up, but unfortunately it's not linked to the new IP of the masterserver, because the score type is set to frags instead of time. I just did a round against myself (yeah, I won!), and made sure the map reloaded so the server was connected to the masterserver again. So it...

Even though you say you have compiled it, let me tell you how I compiled it: I always use the DXMTLDummy with the MTLExtender executable (I am aware of the fixed DXMTL152b1, but I never used it myself). You can find both here: http://www.dxalpha.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17032 Then, you need to have...

How did you compile ANNA103?

The hosting provider of the primary masterserver announced today that they will be performing maintenance on the physical server which runs the masterserver. Unfortunately this also changes the IP address of the masterserver, and includes some short downtime. No ETA was given, but I will monitor it ...

Got to admit, the past 2 days dxalpha was spammed up as well, they bypassed several of our spam protections.

I just implemented the API of StopForumSpam.com, it seems to work pretty well, so I can recommend it (over Akismet, which we used before)

Hereby the source of ANNA and EMMA is released. Source of ANNA101 is here: http://deusexnetwork.com/files/DX1/multiplayer/mods/4742/ANNA101_with_source.zip This should contain the working source of ANNA101. The latest development version is here: http://deusexnetwork.com/files/DX1/multiplayer/mods/7...

Just a quick update for those interested:

The 'lease' on the masterservers has been renewed recently, whilst doing that I also dropped the Californian (backup) server as it was too unreliable to my liking, even for a backup server.
It was replaced by a new server in Dallas, Texas.

Anyway, the last nail really was when gamespy masterserver went down. We still have another official masterserver domain which is the fragaholics domain. I've spoken with the owner about the domain which is [CG]Nathan. He told me somebody was already hosting it in Deus Ex. From what I remember the ...

Hi guys. Just a quick post: The ANNA version with DT in the display/scoreboard is a dev/beta version, and I asked Ken to get a heightened FPS so I could check if DT actually changes (which it did not - damnit). As for other accusations concerning cheats like trigger bots and cheat engine: unfortunat...

Hi mikak, I'm afraid you made a slight error. Here's a corrected version: [DeusEx.DeusExGameEngine] CacheSizeMegs=4 UseSound=True ServerActors=IpDrv.UdpBeacon ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerQuery ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerUplink MasterServerAddress=master0.gamespy.com MasterServerPort=27900 Ser...

Hi all, yeah something is up with the masterserver. The primary masterserver went into maintenance last night, after which a secondary server kicked in. Deus Ex servers and clients automatically connected to the secondary server, but unfortunately it didn't go flawless. Here's why: When a Deus Ex se...

Hi Fear, unfortunately the masterserver had some downtime. It went offline around 22:55 GMT and at around 01:30 GMT I noticed and manually switched to a different masterserver.
The automatic failover didn't kick in because it wasn't in place yet. I'll try to look at it the next few days.

bitching? If you want to take this as bitching, so be it, for me it just looks like being impervious to advice. And there is no need to become hostile now with this crap like "think you can do it better", that's not what I said or meant. PS: and no need for further hostility, I won't wast...

First of all I'm sorry that I wont go in on every point you made. As far as I know, I setup a masterserver and a tool to switch from Gamespy to this masterserver. If people want to use a different solution (such as the multi-masterserver lister), that does not conflict at all. My "tool"/so...
