Id gladly accept any help offered. I'm currently working on a major revision to the source code involving lots of clean up and refactoring and new stuff added. I don't seem to be receiving emails from this forum on pm either =\

If anyone needs me my msn is [email protected] and my email tarendai ' at' darkstars.co.uk

by the way, is this interface in any of the official builds yet at all? Or the nightlys? I'm not exactly uber active in this forum, if someone could fill me in it'd be much appreciated.

I am pretty sure it is in the nightlys, and it will be in the beta 3 when that finally gets out.
It has been a bit slow as of late, most devs are in crunch mode for exams.

guys? its since a half year very hard to get a 2v2 game in gamespy.
it would be nice if you do something similar fast for wz 2.x (with main chat, thats important).
a main chat is always good to find friends and enemys^^.
it can be to late for wz if this comes with 2.2. say something when i can help there somehow.

I haven't forgotten about this thread...

The needed commands to launch warzone via a external application are in 2.1 beta 4.

Just have to get in touch with AF-TNowell, and see how his progress is.

We also have to decide which server should host the lobby code...and I don't think that has been talked about much.
It might be pretty nice to pick a game of either warzone or TA springs...at least more users will be shown :)

I thoughr may be add for "--host" an optional parametr "--iplist" < there should be IP's of clients that were in external room(TAsprings or whatever). So whan host press "Start" in the external program, everyone who is connected will be in the warzone host room( connect player "onfly') :rolleyes:

Aegis has a project called UberServer which adds additional field to the existing TASServer protocol for game engine and version. Its python and quite fast and actively developed.

Battlehub/aflobby etc is going slowly just right now as I started a new job and Im taking a week or two to adjust to the new regime. If you wish to contact me, my msn and email are: Image

If only I had more time... sorry it is taking so long, been very busy, and not much time devoted to warzone right now. :(

I would not worry but I would suggest keeping me on msn ( [email protected] ) as I have so many forums to look at I tend to check this forum every 2 or 3 weeks or even longer apart.

It may also be useful to read and comment on this in anything you may feel would affect warzone 2100
