Since chatbox messages seem to get lost/ignored/done incorrectly.
Replace your current smac_cvars.smx by compiling the smac_cvars.sp below. Use this to compile it: http://www.sourcemod.net/compiler.php Or rather, you can't -_- sourcemod is confused easily it would seem. Instead use the spcomp.exe in your \hidden\addons\sourcemod\scripting folder to compile it.
Another thing you can do is add the following to the end of your smac.cfg found here: \hidden\cfg\sourcemod\smac.cfg
//Fullbright smac_addcvar mat_fullbright equal ban 0
I met two cheaters yesterday that were clearly using mat_fullbright -_- I'd send you their SteamIDs along with the demo files I recorded, but why bother. All you need to do to remedy the situation is add my suggestions to your SMAC. Good luck CG.
Offender's name in-game: Grimreaper, more or less.
Date/Time of the offence: Today
SteamID: STEAM_0:1:81831218
Server: Hidden: Source
Any administrators on the server?: Not anymore.
What was the problem/offense?: Hackin'
• Proof: Demo files
• Other comments: Appears to have either deleted textures or found some other way of hacking. I have more demos but I can't upload them/don't feel like putting them up on filesmelt, so these 2 will do.
Note: His account seems to be a dummy/throw away account, banning him won't keep him out for long if he's determined.
Which server(s) are you resigning from?: Head Admin of CG's Hidden servers, of course. I'll keep Vet Admin I suppose, for now (assuming of course I'm allowed to).
Steam ID: Irrelevant, I'll edit my permissions myself in SourceBans.
Reason for resignation: Inject, you've removed my FTP, without due cause I might add. No FTP means I can't do anything to fix the ranks, add new plugins, etc, etc. Why should I hold a position that isn't real, Inject?
Temporary?: ... Who knows.
Comments: Don't post anything stupid or foolish on my resignation guys, I'm being perfectly serious and I want you all to be civil.
If you are going to be away for a period longer than 2-3 days, make a thread with the following information.: Mkay
Name: Dark Red, as you can see by looking at my forum profile -_-
Time you are leaving: Now of course.
In Which server you are admin on: Hidden I guess
Estimated time/date of return: ... Not really leaving. I don't know, eventually, a few weeks? The heck should I know.
Additional Comments: More of an inactivity notice, I've got some personal stuff going on right now + other things. I'll still be here just not as active, PM me your problems if is hidden related and I should be able to take care of them. ------------------------------------------------------
Remember CL's and HA's are not exempt from using the Admin Time Away Format. Please do not misuse the format. Thank you.: Mkay.
Put the tag (=CG=) at the beginning of every server, like how ZPS has its server. It will put us higher on the list (when listed alphabetically) and make it easier for players to find us. Example: (=CG=)| Hidden #1| P-Shove | Random |ConjointGaming.com (=CG=)| Hidden #2| P-Shove | Weighted|ConjointGaming.com (=CG=)| Hidden #3| P-Stick | Weighted|ConjointGaming.com (=CG=)| Hidden #4| P-Stick | Weighted|Custom Maps| ConjointGaming.com (=CG=)|ZPS|Slaughter House | Conjointgaming.com
Do you have past admin/forum experience: Yes to the admin experience, no to the forum experience.
What makes you want to apply for this position/admin: The sheer amount of inactive admins we have here in CG is stupendous, I can help tidy things up. Not only that but the servers need some help in major ways as well. I am on the forums a lot. I tend to read everything be they weird topics about undying animals to extremely important topics regarding CG's future. I know what's going on.
What admin-like/helpful qualities do you possess: Most of them I'd like to think. I'm fair when fairness is due, I'm kind when kindness is due, and I'm just when justness is due. I tend to keep my cool pretty well when I'm angry. I love to help people. I'm not scared of reading large walls of text if I know it's important, heck, I'll even read it if it's unimportant, it doesn't matter to me.
Do you use a Microphone: Yes.
What position are you applying for: GM, however I'd like to opt in for GA.
Do you use our TS server: I do if need be. I have it on the task-bar of my computer, so it's always within easy reach. In other words: Yes.
Please list at least 5(Because I don't know whether the position of GA would be considered to be that of a forum position or an admin position or a combination of the two) CG rules in your own words and why they're important to CG:
Spoiler for Hidden:
No Personal Attacks: Basically this, if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all. Keep your thoughts/feelings about someone to yourself, what's the point of hurting someone and making an enemy who you'll have to deal with every day that you're in CG.
Thread Spamming: Don't post random nonsense on threads, especially important threads. Why bother wasting everyone's time by spamming pointless posts everywhere, what is the point, there isn't one.
Minimal Cussing: Don't swear a ton for no reason, there's no point to it. My opinion has always been that if you are going to swear then it should be for a good reason, otherwise all it does is make you seem childish (in my opinion). Try being creative, blight, mother trucker, and oh no are all favorites of mine. We mean it dammit blight it.
No Posting Pornographic Content of Any Kind: Frankly I can't imagine why anyone would even think of doing something like this on a forum. We have young members here in CG for one and it would be the equivalent of distributing pornography to minors (there are many more reasons I could list but that'll do for now). If you can't look at it in a living room surrounded by your grandparents, aunts, uncle, etc then you shouldn't post it.
Do Not Post Personal Information of Others Without Their Explicit Permission: This seems obvious but people still do it anyways. Many people enjoy their privacy, especially over the internet, sharing their personal information with others against their will is a huge violation of their privacy, don't do it.
Additional Notes: I've combined the requirements for an application between a forum position and a server position due to the fact that I'd like to be a GA, which appears to be a combination of the two.
Were you recommended by an admin? If so state the name: Old Crow (I think he still counts), Burgers, and hopefully the rest of the hidden admins too.
Do you have past admin experience: Yeah.
Why you wish to be CL: Forums need some help and I think I definitely can.
What country are you from: USA
Age: 17
Additional Notes: I can help, I tend to get along with most of CG and when I don't I can generally keep my mouth shut and grit my teeth. I understand the responsibilities that would become mine. I can talk to people and help their problems.
If you are going to be away for a period longer than 2-3 days, make a thread with the following information. Mkay, will do then.
Name: ÉŒed
Time you are leaving: not really "leaving" but after I finish this post..
In Which server you are admin on: Mostly Hidden..
Estimated time/date of return: 3-4 weeks at the most, 1 week at least
Additional Comments: Sorta tired of admining right now, I'm sure lots of you know what that's like. I've also gotten a bit "too" good at the game (no I'm not being big headed or trying to inflate my ego.. It's true), it's kind of tiring to constantly win over and over. I need to play other games for a bit (which is why I'm making this time away, since I won't be playing much Hidden).
Also, I'm writing this at 12 am and I have a massive headache so I blame that for any grammatical errors I have in my time away post...
Note for the other Hidden admins:
Spoiler for Hidden:
I will still be available if you need me to addbans and edit bans and you can always ask me for advice. I'm taking a break, I'm not resigning or something, so I can still help you guys out if need be.
Estimated time/date of return: Unknown, I'm just so tired right now. Gonna play MC for a while. Everything that occurred previously is resolved in my opinion.
Additional information: I will still be on the forums, I just need some time away from admining the servers, it will make things a lot more calming and less stressful this way. If you have any questions PM me on steam or here in the forums.
Specific people needed to read this: Anyone who can help, as always
Summarize help request in one sentence: I want to make a small hidden server
Additional Info: I just wanna know how I would create a server in which I could have 2-3 players max that I could lock to play The Hidden in. I've tried the create a server option in the game but all that does is open up a LAN and no one who I'd like to have in my server would want to do it via LAN. I know there's a way to do it with this one thing (I think it is called hamachi or something?) but that seems... Not difficult but pointless and annoying. I intend to try to teach players what I know in hidden without having other players join and stop the lesson. Also it would be fun to have some 1 on 1 against some of my friends. How would I make a server, and how would I put it up on the server list? I've wondered how to do this for several months now but I figured I might as well ask now cause why not.. Stupid idea? Yeah maybe but I might as well ask anyways.
Specific people needed to read this: Anyone who can help, any suggestion that could help would be appreciated
Summarize help request in one sentence:Myself and several people I've met and played with (not all of them mind you) have had an issue where the mouse will randomly... pause then skip over a space then repeat; this causes a jerky effect that makes it very hard to aim or move smoothly.
Additional Info: I think I summed up the issue, most of the mouses are 2.0 (from what I've heard, but the computer mice in question are all supposedly in good condition) we also have them plugged into the right USB ports so that's no issue as far as I know... Suggestions?
Importance level(low,medium,high): Not too high, between low and medium.
Steam related?: Sorta, it's not as bad when I'm not playing a game, actually the only time I have this issue is when I am playing a steam game, which leads me to believe that it's steam related. I don't know if this is the same for the other people (the steam bit).
3 days away... or more (heck if I remember), gotta spend time with my relatives. Won't be leaving until about 8 P.M. to get to the place that I'm going but I have to work until 6:30 so I won't be making any posts or doing any administrating on the servers either. Ta-Tah, have fun kiddies.
