Hi Everyone

Well I have been working on a number of things in the back ground to spice things up a bit.

Big one first.... IW4X https://xlabs.dev/ have a look here it explains how to setup the game etc.

This is the latest conversion for MW2 and in my opinion it is at another level in comparison to other conversions of previous cod games. It has a huge following regarding development and has quite a good player base. This browser image was grabbed at 5pm today.

There is also a great admin tool to manage players and stats, the guys have also added anti cheat plus VPN detection.

I have setup three servers under the name OGHF and also setup the admin tool @ http://iw4.oghf.org.uk

Would be interested in feedback and any current game admin who gives it a whirl let me know and I will set you up with the same level on these servers.

One thing I am very interested in is the effectiveness of the admin tool as this will also work with cod4x, the developer is very active and releases almost daily. Things like VPN detection maybe useful on other servers. It is too new to just start using instead of B3 but we can gain experience with it during our new iw4x journey.

Finally there are also a fairly large number of custom maps available for IW4X too.


Next is our voice server offering, currently TeamSpeak is our choice for the main tool, historically we have had a dabble with discord and the server is still live but the two are disjointed. Discord integrations add lots of useful tools for players and admins.

So my plan is to link TeamSpeak and discord, the TeamSpeak server will be the foundation and I will rebuild the Discord server to match. This is an experiment and may not be permanent but I can see a lot of positives that can come from the use of discord integrations.

One key point is don't get to emotional if you loose roles or stuff from discord as my approach here will be pretty much a clean start.

Well this should create a few comments etc over the next couple of weeks..

Cheers

Still away at the moment. Looking forward to downloading it and giving it a bash when back. Maybe even organizing an evening on it and getting as many there as possible.
But did I read somewhere Wax was doing that ? ;)

Now were I to go ahead with this I don't want you guys getting all upset when the CoD4 servers are empty and tumbling down the world rankings :p Especially as there is a nice MW2 TDM server sat empty most evenings which would be a great opportunity for those asking about another TDM server to play on :p ;) and the IW4x offers a complete game set up so people don't have to purchase anything to get playing :)

TDM server is good but the FFA server is better due to the maps.

I'm on most evenings, find that the FFA server attracts more players than TDM/CTF. Anyone wishing to have a game tonight, i'll be there.

The admin tool is really good. You can checkout each server and view live radar of all players. If a VPN is detected the player is banned automatically, also has anti cheat detection and bans automatically.
Seems that there are auto demo's recorded but am unable to find a player so far. Will keep looking.
robby uses a VPN lol "insert evil laugh here"
