Get on WaW #1 Server Thursday for Pubby Play!

Yes you heard that right....Bleed bug fixed! If you've missed favorite maps like Bastogne 16/32, Brest 16, Port En Bessin 16....THEY'RE BLEEDING NORMAL NOW(Thanks to Trexer for that!)!

Let's get enough people on to not only play favorite smaller maps but also some big ones!

People usually start drifting on around 8pm eastern time. So please join up and once you do please STICK AROUND for a while!

(Thought of just bumping existing Thursday pubby play thread but bleed bug fixed is BIG NEWS!)


EDIT: I also started thread over at main FH2 forums so if you wanna bump that to build excitement too then go for it: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php?topic=18587.0

Agreed! And I plan to be there, and on time for a change! (in my case 9 EST or there about is on time)

Time again for Pubby play, Thursday & Friday!
Please join us!

Ill see if I can get some people together for tonight. Should be some fun.

I might join up tonight.

It is Thursday once again, please join us tonite for public play!

I will be on tonight. Looking forward to it

I had some good fun with Ug.

Really great for just practicing team firefight skills, on the small maps that were on rotation this evening. It'd be good to get in with some platoonmates for practice at basic FPS skills!

Our new server is now in the FH2 Awards database, WaW #1 2.45 RANKED - bfewaw.com.

I am trying to get stats that were linked to our past server, WaW #1 2.45 RANKED bfewaw.com, linked to our new one. It doesn't impact your personal awards, but keeps things nice and tidy. :D

Show up for play this Thursday to get some stats put on our new server. :victory:
Play usually starts around 8pm EST (New York).

Melvin, thank you much for fixing it, though I am perplexed as to why you folks didn’t just go to stats backend for an old server and changed the IP (that’s what our admins at F|H did when they changed the server).

P. S. Can you also please update Mumble info with 762, so that new server works there as well?

I'm sorry you are perplexed. Perhaps you should get some medicated cream for the condition.

It was funny that I had explained to the guy about the old server going away and needing the new server ranked. I only explained that because their site was giving this error:

Forbidden (403)
CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.
More information is available with DEBUG=True.

He fixed the error to allow me to proceed. After everything was working. He THEN said:

Do you know that you could just edit the old server in the awards backend and change its IP?

:rofl:

So, I was able to get possession of the old server and changed it's IP and updated the appropriate file on our server. Let's see how that works. Nothing has been attributed from tonight's play. I guess it takes a while. At this time, it's been ab08t two hours since we had numbers high enough to count for stats.

I have a question for you guys. I don't do pubbie much these days and I've forgotten about how certain Awards work. Today a few of us got the Bronze Objectives Award. That's for getting 3 control points in one round. But we already had more advanced awards, (Silver and Gold). Should it have announce the Bronze Objective Awards for us?

If whatever needs to be done with Mumble can be done, I'm sure it will get done...

I remember something similar happening with the old Wolf server(s), whenever we would get a new one. I don't know specific details, but I think it was something to do with the server not connecting properly with the master awards tracker server doohickey or something. That's why everyone's rank last night showed as a private and we were all starting over with awards.

Thanks. I'll check with the Awards guy about that.

I think they are having other issues, too. I just got a "500 -Internal Server Error" when clicking on a player name at their website.

The FH2 Awards guy assures me it's working. The awards link is: WaW #1 2.45 RANKED - bfewaw.com.

Ignore the wrong IP number listed at the FH2 Awards site. He changed it to the wrong one because he says that's how the FH2 Award interface will check. I told him that is our PR server with the same (BF2 default) port. No explanation, but I'm guessing the data is qualified (FH2 or PR) and the FH2 Awards filters appropriately.

Everyone get on tomorrow (Thursday 5 December) so we can confirm. And gaud help us if we move server IP around, again.

Game officially starts about 8PM US East coast time Thursday, (0100 GMT Friday).
Things might take up to an hour to pickup, but try to arrive earlier than later.

Yeah. FH2 Awards stats are working again. Now, don't touch anything! ;)

The Custom FH2 Maps events are back. Today's Friday session will be same maps and rotation as last time. There will be something new for Sunday's game.

Where is everyone?

Not on 762 I TRUST....

8 to 10 of us were playing before and after your post. Not much of everyone, though. :(

There's been some pub admin talk that got moved out of this thread. It as the idea to use Mumble.

Also, note the server was moved to fix some problems. It is now at 209.222.20.115 (had been x.x.x.116).

Geopat tells me that VOIP is fully working again. That IP change was my last try. I think it's the pesky FH2 persistence code that had been causing problems for FH2 Awards not working previously. Now, there is no need to do a workaround for Awards and the VOIP works. For tonight's play, I confirmed it showed up on FH2 Awards.

Although, I still don't understand why VOIP fully worked for some of us on x.x.x.116 but not for others. Anyway, I hear it even worked for Professor Anthrax with the move to x.x.x.115.

As for Mumble, be aware that the code has not been checked-out by WaW. We appreciate the people who have modified the Open Source code for FH2, so if it works for you then good luck and enjoy. If not, I hope VOIP is fully working for everyone now. And, we have our TeamSpeak3 server at ts.bfewaw.com. Just join the FH2 Public Play channels near the top of the channel list.

TS3 has a listening volume feature that allows one to set the volume for listening on a player by player basis, as well as all together. This is handy for hearing particular people with quiet microphones (by boosting volume just for them); or, if you are in a noisy vehicle and need a little more volume to hear anyone (use global volume boost). For fun, when in TS many of us just like to stay in the same channel even if we are on different sides. We can use VOIP for team private stuff. It's fun to have the common channel but we do have separate Axis and Allied channels to use if you want.

one of fh2's facebook admins is reaching out to get waw more players for the pubby and beyond...



see here : http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/inde...opic=16791.915


please have all pubby admins respond if they can!

Jan says he sent you everything, Kevin.
You might want to send us that as well.

What ever it is, he probably needs the admins with actual decision making ability.

PM it to Melvin

This is Jan Kurator's original message:

Who is WaW server admin/admins? I need to contact you guys with some nice offer which hopefully can help increase american playerbase. If you are interested send me a PM, please ;)

yeah i posted what he sent me in the admin section... just wants to know what to put on the facebook page about waw pubby play, how many admins, etc....

Here's a reminder for Pubbie Thursday. There is also a countdown clock on each forum page.

Event: Pubbie FH2 Thursday
Date: A weekly event -- Every Thursday
Start Time: About 8PM EDT (New York), 1AM Friday BST (London)
Server IP: 209.222.20.115
Server Name: WaW #1 FH2.48 RANKED - bfewaw.com
Password: There is no password.
VOIP: Active.
TeamSpeak 3 Server (*): ts.bfewaw.com, see FH2 Public Play channel near top of TS3 channel window.
Awards: Active.

(*) Using WaW's TS3 server adds more options for game communications, but still allows VOIP. Play in a common voice channel with opponents or go in separate team channels. Totally customizable voice volume control for yourself and those in your channel; FH2 VOIP does not have this. If a guy has a soft mic, turn up his volume. Obnoxious spammer, mute him. Your tank noise too loud, turn up your overall voice volume input. Use a separate key for each, VOIP and TS3. With practice, you can have both Team and common communications: have fun in a group talk in the common channel, but use FH2 VOIP for battle talk.

Good turnout for an American server. About 35 at the moment.

By pure chance I got FH2 installed just now and jumped in for a few minutes! I got shooted a lot with 300 ping, then punkbuster hated me to death.

SUCH FUN

best night of gaming in a long time, thanks everyone!
GG's to the max.
