TF2 PropHunt

[Geitiegg]

Hey everyone, i didn't see a topic on this here and thought it deserved one. (Even though I've seen a fair few of you on the server)

Here's the description of the plugin from the steam forums;

Random Info:

• !rank and !top10 allow you to see your stats and the top 10 players respectively.
• Active "CP Bonus" by standing on the otherwise inactive control point. This will give you a health boost and can be used once every 55 seconds.
• Hold ATTACK2 to lock your model in place. Handy for looking around, or seeing yourself as others see you.

Servers:

• UK (GamingMasters.co.uk) 32 slots - 81.19.212.48:27019
• UK (GamingMasters.co.uk) 32 slots - 81.19.212.48:27029

• Italy (WantedGoV.it) 28 slots - 194.177.96.192:27055

Alternatively search for "PropHunt" rather than Team Fortress in the Game column.

ive seen this in action and it looks fun. too bad that guy wont release the plugin and the servers are full 24/7.

[Geitiegg]

We've added more servers into the mix (They aren't always full, try the Alpha-Omega Server), and if you wish to have a copy of the plugin on your servers, just ask either myself or Dark and we'll get a package ready for you.

The reason the plugin isn't released publicly is because of it's huge list of requirements, which is why it only runs on select servers around the world.

ah, see I wasnt aware of this so i made some generalizations. my apologies. i did try joining some of the servers, it was 15min before i stopped trying. i guess it goes to show how fun this game mode can be.

mind listing some of the requirements? a post or pm is fine.

thanks geitiegg

The full servers more likely to unprecedented hype, rather than anything else, the amount of new players every-day is still in the thousands though.

Anyway, here are most of the requirements;

• Windows (We haven't been able to get it stable under Linux [Even though the extensions are cross platform])
• Sourcemod 2.3 (Latest Dev snapshots)
• Metamod:Source 1.8 (Latest Dev snapshots)
• Hooker Extension
• Dukehacks Extension
• RunTeamLogic Extension (For servers over 24 slots)
• Sockets Extension (For Global Stats, and keeping remote control over the plugin)

Ok, so it's not huge, but the plugin vary's in performance from system to system, which is why we like to know what hardware the server is running etc etc (Servers can use up to 4x the normal amount of RAM when running prophunt.)

Also, Fun Fact;

• The plugin is 2400 lines long, 400 of those lines are dedicated to individual prop lists for each map.

i have to say id also like to know the requirements...

makes me tempted to go buy a server again

EDIT: i really need to remember to refresh the page before I post <_<

Thanks for the info, now how does one get the code if they meet all the server requirements?

Just add me on steam, or via MSN rory_king@hotmail.co.uk and we can negotiate it.

hmm...after playing it for a bit, and looking at the required extensions it seems that it would be difficult to enable and disable the plugin...so...putting it on one of the the tf2maps servers might not be the best idea...

just seems to me like something that requires a server dedicated to it

Quite the opposite, the plugin could be unloaded and reloaded without any trouble, heck, it could be based on map if you wanted it to be.:>
