Played an entire map rotation tonight on the new gfm server, with Somehelp, Gereau, Crossofiron, Flatliner and Crazycanuck.. I think it was a very god mix of maps and a few new ones that I have never seen before. Everything was ok but one thing, I could wish for the players to move a little faster..It also seemed like people had problems with dowloading some of the bigger maps....... would be a lot more fun with maybe 10 people on each team.

Over all I had a great time.... thx

I too liked this rotation. There was a map on there from the final scene of Saving Private Ryan. The same one with the bell tower from my sig, lol.

Pssst ( I told him that )

OH yeah,
I was there for about 11 seconds... I swung the shovel, and then "wes" snuck up on me while I was changing my son's diaper... So yeah, I was there.. It looks great!

It was fun....got NOTHING and GOOSEDOWN with the shovel and TP with the knife.

Very well done!! If you could add a voting system to choose maybe, game mode like CTF or Domination, this will seriously rock! Nice maps, nice realism, had lots of fun tonight.....



Thx Mike!!

can someone please tell me how to log on to the gfm??where is it?

I think it is: 8.9.4.82:28961 (not :28960)

Funny how we got this on our server.
Rommel posted about getting the map [Frontline] to our server and in his post he added ss from the wrong web site with the German Front instead of the map [Frontline]. Anyway, the German Front Mod is very nice with great graphics and several maps. And the thing with dividing teams into different special units, add a new dimension to the game play. And the knife and shovel is cool for sure!

Wow! You mean all I need to do was to load that single Frontline map?

Well now I must insist that Rommel stay on the new MOB German Front Server 24 hours a day as punishment!

Anyway, it was an interesting challenge to get the GFM MOD installed. Give it a week or two. If it does not become popular, I'll remove it.

Oh yeah, I enabled the vote option.

Old Man Mike

im not complaining! it was a good mistake.

Yes i will try, but my problem is that i have high ping 999. I dont know why, but i have tthe same problem when i try to play Broadsword.

Actually GFM Is pretty cool. We should try and advertise it on the other servers...like fly planes.
I love the skins and everything its really cool.

P,S.
Rommel Try changing your Connection type in Multiplayer options....It might not be what you have..and that sometimes causes lag.

I agree!
Hopefully gfm will run on my laptop also!
You did a great job, Mike!

I will try, thank you Spartan

I can't wait to play the GFM mod. I played it a lot in a prior version. I hope we get the traction to keep it up. The shovel is great and squad roles are nice additions that keep it interesting.

i would love to challenge our previous oponents to some matches . ive sent emails to alot of them just letting them know we have the mod running but im not ssure if we could have a match on it yet.

Ive got an idea. why not just put the map "Frontline" into GFM soo that its part of the rotation?

Or add frontline in a rotation on the Broadsword server.

I jumped on the server last night, had alot of fun. You guys have got some serious skills, I got owned hard a few times. GFM is a fun mod I hope it picks up more, maybe throw a BAS map into the rotation Anyways great mod thanks for the cool servers.

thank you MOB I have not played TDM in so long been playing BASE but GFM TDM thats a different game all together i will be on alot.I also think it will do real well alot of people miss GFM. Thanks again

GFM is a very good mod.

Here is a list of maps you should get for the server.



GFM The Hill

GFM Saint Lo at Night

GFM Road of Death

GFM Bazolles British

GFM Authie

GFM Valley Day



If you need them i can send you the maps.

GFM is great.

I want to find out how to get in the tunnel that goes under the river on the bridge map. Crossing those bridges is murder.

Fun mod for sure...spent way too long playing it today.
Will definitely be playing on it more, and suggest to others to give it a go too - it's well worth the 370mb(?) download

That Kar 98 is just vicious

Oh yeah, one other thing: If Leadmagnet is your medic take cover - that "does anyone need 1st aid" call is a sure death knell

Tell me about it, i think he was just following me around cause he knew i was going to get shot. I gues he just likes to touch me, lol. everytime i kneel down to get medication, i could swear he's using a date rape on me

most of those maps are available, but the current rotation is strictly Amer-German; you have to vote for them. Also, there seems to be a problem with the changing gametypes option, because it wont switch from TDM to CTF or BAS....(please advise, mike)....


Lead





yes, that first aid call is definitely a harbinger of doom.....i just like playin the medic, until i run out of morphine to inject you with.....

I dont understand the point of a medic....You heal some1 and they go off into a stream of mg fire and die.....I would much rather be an officer or Assault troop...maybe even light infantry. The rules of war arn't followed.....( Never Shoot the Medic. )

Hey Mike

The German front server is nice and fun thank you. Wish I could survive a bit longer but seem to get my arse handed to me which I contribute to puter probs.

As for the Frontline map.. that map is great in my opinion. I play it as often as I can. Just wish we did have it available on one of our servers. It really is a fun map.



Doyle









I like that idea... or how about a rotation with Barb or Broadswoard?

I think it would be a great idea to put frontline into rotation and maybe remove carentan but thats just my oppinion

maybe a vote is in order?

My vote for Frontline is a resounding YES!

There are 18 new maps in the GFM server now, many of which have not even been played once. The map vote option allows selection of any of those maps. Before we add any more, how about first picking the best of these 18 along with the preferred gametype?

Also, some gametypes are not compatible with some maps. Some_Help has matrix which shows the combinations which do not work. (might be good to copy that list to this thread). I recommend that folks not use the vote function to select the gametype unless you know the bad combinations since it is likely to hang up the server. I will eventually modify the MOB control panel so that it can be reset like the other MOB servers. Until then, please be careful.

Old Man Mike

Just wondering if the lack of crosshairs is part of the mod or a server side option?

I would like to know 2 things about this server.

1. Can we increase the speed at which we walk/run, or maybe the amount of time we can sprint?

2. Can we increase the amount of certain weapons that are allowed per team? Example, some maps are geared toward sniping and each team has only one scoped rifle. Can there be 2 or 3 allowed?

Here is the compatibility matrix OMM speaks of...



We were checking out almost all of the maps last night (late), and if you do change the map, stay with TDM if you dont have the matrix handy because there are no problems with TDM and any of the maps!



Some very cool maps.

The Tiger is AWESOME, we should totally port it to tuchola forest!

I agree with nothing, Sprinting is very cumbersome...we run slower than any server in mob it defiantly should be made quite faster and with a longer sprint time. Medics only have the option of selecting the weaker Carbine...Snipers are limited. Light assault troops are overstocked...and on top of it all theres like no cross hair whatsoever...I think we need to fix some stuff...I also think that most of the stock maps aren't necessary. By the way I would also like to recommend Putting in a blood mod.

P.S,
If the tiger is gonna be put somewhere it should defiantly be Barb.

not having any cross hairs is the best thing about GFM keeps the bunny hoppers grounded

OMM I was wondering If we could put that Merciless Blood Mod on the server?

Make everyone but me really slow....

i want to be razor fast. and have flames.

I also want to be really good with the ladies, like I am in real life.

the only thing that needs fixing is spartan. He needs to be neutered, Like bob barker says.

cannot have the likes of him breeding. We already know of the mess that Undead has caused with his demon seed, jeez. now i must train MY son to be prepared to meet his....



OHHH as far as the mod goes, I love it. the sprinting is brutal, especially coming from Ms Steels killer modern weapons freakzone. that is death squared.

and undead smells.

Quoted for truth

One of the main attractions of the GFM mod IS the limitation of the Snipers. As the team size increases another sniper slot will become available, IIRC. They tried to add more realism in this MOD hence, no crosshair unless you are using the scope.

IMO lets use this on an "as is" basis for a little while before we start monkeying with it.

I like that!

Don't Hate, that I get more action.

OMM

Thanks for putting the Frontline map on. But did you have to limit the tanks to only 10 rounds? It takes 3 tanks to take down one bunker with the rounds limited to 10. It takes exactly 24 direct solid hits to take a bunker down. When you have to fight other tanks etc... it makes it very hard to do that. You also have tanks littering the battlefield because they are abandoned once the 10 rounds are expended.

I play this map on other servers and they have the tanks set like you have the tanks in Barb or Tuch or Broadside set, without limits.

I am not asking for unlimited.. that would be nice and normal.. but more than 10.



Thank you..

I have just set the ammo to 32 per tank, the max that the GFM mod allows. Frag on!

Thank you, Steel.

i noticed on the matrix we have a few of the maps that can play in dom mode , is it impossible to have 2 base assault maps a few dom and a ctf? does it have to be all one game type? i know alot of people dont play dom but i absolutely love it,fast paced action!

Thank you Steel,

You're the best.

Undead ..I believe in-game voting is still there. Just pick a map and gametype you want and put it to a vote. If I'm wrong about in-game voting still being activated, just ask someone with admin to switch the map and gametype. All the gfm maps are still in the server, so they're still there ready to be played.

And of course, if everyone would rather have a rotation of maps and gametypes than playing Frontline BAS exclusively, it will be done. :-)
