Please don't post on the forum asking for pirated software.

These last few payments bring the total amount of pre-paid players to 15. Still 25 other players who have stated intent to attend, but have not pre-paid yet.

Yes, registration has been extended until June 4th June 3rd @ 11:59CDT. As of right now we have 12 ready teams, including Classic Mixup, Froyotech, Exertus, Street Hoops, and 6cuties. If you want to see how you stack up against the best in North America, this is your chance.

EDIT: Thanks Spangler

You can play anything that is installed on the PCs.

That actually might be possible to do server-side. I think the formula for tf2's damage falloff is readily available so this could potentially be calculated. It does get tricky though because you also have to account for the spread of the scatter pellets. At 100 feet, each pellet may do X damage but it's not possible to hit someone with all of them like it is at close range, so that would need to be accounted for.

Oh wow, either that has changed since I first started developing MGEMod (almost four years ago!) or I was doing it very wrong. Good to know! I guess accuracy stats are no longer that absurd.

That said, I haven't touched the MGEMod codebase in quite some time and am busy with other projects. Though there's nothing stopping any of you from adding them and submitting a pull request!

Class limits have nothing to do with the actual SOAP TF2DM plugin, and are set on a per-sever basis by that server's administrator. Talk to the owner of your DM server if you want to see class limits changed.

?

TF2_CalcIsAttackCritical is a good candidate, but if you turn off crits that event never fires. Additionally, last I checked, leaving crits on to take advantage of this event but programmatically disabling crits by returning PLUGIN_HANDLED (or something similar) results in prediction errors for the client. In other words, the client would still see and hear crit effects when they were expected to crit, but would not actually do critical damage. While this is only a cosmetic issue, I feel it would cause significant confusion.

Why are stats important in DM? Why does it matter who is doing the most damage and who is cleaning up?

That probably also uses some kind of OnGameFrame-based workaround, though I can't be sure as his plugins are closed-source as is TFTrue. I'd be happy if he came in and announced there was a better way of tracking accuracy though.

Far too many things can happen between the time a player is hit twice. What if, between the first and second hit, the attacker shot 3 times and reloaded? What if the attacker shot once and reloaded? You would not be able to tell between those two scenarios. There are several other scenarios like this that all make that method inaccurate.

EDIT: I suppose you could look at reserve ammo as well, but that is also not reliable because they could pick up ammo, or die and respawn, etc. The number of workarounds built on top of workarounds rapidly spirals out of control and takes over the whole codebase just for this one feature.

More or less this. Determining accuracy in MGEMod involved, on every single game frame, scanning every weapon held by every player and checking to see if its ammo had decreased. To my knowledge, there is no in-game event that can be hooked when a player shoots and misses, so this was a workaround. It's possible there are better workarounds, but it was way too much hassle for a minor feature that most people did not care about.

Yes, outside food is allowed. Ignite asks that surplus food be stored in our private room, and not out on the main floor.

You are welcome to bring as many or as few cookies as you like.

There are 55 computers. The max capacity of the venue is about 150 persons. Obviously, not all of these persons can be on computers at the same time, but if you just plan on hanging out then you can do so.

Refunds will be available until about a week before the event.

ATTENTION:
Given the unexpectedly large amount of people attending, this event is no longer pay-at-the-door. Additionally, the price has been dropped from $55 to $48 per person. To be guaranteed a seat, you must pre-pay. As Ignite has no ability to accept advance registrations from individual attendees, they have asked that I collect all the registration fees and forward them as one lump sum. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please email me at email@alexvan.camp
