blackdog~ 0 Posted August 21, 2003 I finally got my dedicated server up and running... it doesn't have much on it now, but it will soon! It's IP address is simply tacticalblunder.com, on port 2302. I hope I see you there. Plans for the future: - addons and maps... of couse... just need to upload them... - different addons on different nights, example: - sunday, all addons - monday, bas addons only - tuesday, rhs addons only - wednesday, nam pack only - thursday, suchey and earl's stuff - friday, all addons - saturday, all addons - then again, i might do all addons all the time Any suggestions, guys? PS: Server won't have an addon pack, simply a list of addons to download. Edit: Well, I would think that all of us forum people would keep our addons updated frequently, so when new addons are released we will play the missions which _should_ come with the addon.

blackdog~ 0 Posted August 21, 2003 Oh... and I need a good name for the server.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cloney 0 Posted August 21, 2003 I happen to like that idea of different addons for different nights. Maybe you could have a night reserved for newly released addons, like if a new addons is released, it could be scheduled to be played on a certain night that week. If it is popular is could get a permanent slot for a period of time, 2 weeks, a month, etc etc. ...and for god's sake don't make any of the forum mod's admins. That would be retarded. Names: blackdogs~ Fire Free Zone blackdogs~ Field of Fire Addon Server blackdog~ is a shithead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crashdome 3 Posted August 21, 2003 How about "Mabel" . . or "Larry" in all seriousness.. how about a name that is detached from military or OFP speak (which can get confusing when every server starts to sound the same "Fire Zone", "Zone of Fire", Place of Severe Fire", etc...) and more of a "stick in your head" type of name... like ... like................. ............... well.... "Stick in your Head" Â ROFL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Frenchman 0 Posted August 21, 2003 ...and for god's sake don't make any of the forum mod's admins. That would be retarded. What?! You know just as well as I do that there needs to be a server where all the forum celebrities ( ) and ALL of the BI forums mods can be seen and heard. And if one of the mods makes you mad, there is no ban button to save them from getting thier pixel blood all over the map. Â Â Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdog~ 0 Posted August 21, 2003 http://www.tacticalblunder.com/ofpserver/public_html Started on the website... it will be more or less a place to download the addons needed on the server than a public gathering place, because I'm sure the OFP forums will make do.

The Frenchman 0 Posted August 21, 2003 Oh, and my ideas for the name...... *Right wing *Grounded eagle server *Blackdog~'s krazy glue server *The Frenchman and blackdog~ server BTW, what happens when a mission requires both BAS and RHS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jinef 2 Posted August 21, 2003 Hmm, sounds good, although remember us normal people don't have earl and suchey's or RHS addons yet... *grumbles about the upper class OFP elites for a bit* I will be in there someday to find out what it's about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Frenchman 0 Posted August 21, 2003 The T55's are released when that happens ;) Hmm, that must mean that these addons should be released soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdog~ 0 Posted August 21, 2003 The T55's are released when that happens ;) Hmm, that must mean that these addons should be released soon. Â Â I would hope so Anyway back on topic, what did you guys think about the site, and what did you think about the addon days idea? Or should it be 24/7 all addons all the time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Frenchman 0 Posted August 21, 2003 what did you think about the addon days idea? Maybe you should use more mods. I like the idea but you might want to use more mods on certain days where you have all addons (FDF maybe) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonko the sane 2 Posted August 21, 2003 Nice one  I agree with The Frenchman...a FDF day is a good day  One good thing would be to have the daily required addons on with the servers name so when u browse u would see i.e:BAS addons blah blah...depending on the day. About the site: Maybe u could also specify which addons are the days "piece de resistance"? *Edit:Just another suggestion...Nam day? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Koolkid101 0 Posted August 21, 2003 Why not just name it Tactical Blunder??? OR blackdogs boot camp? It'd make me really happy if you played Crazy Chopper or plane frenzy once in awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Frenchman 0 Posted August 22, 2003 There was this coop where you have to escape from a POW camp. I think it was called Prisioners of War. Operation Lojack would be nice too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
