Crow_Nest Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Originally posted by Master William I can't join a single server with this mod because I get the error "Couldn't find siege classes" or "Server uses protocol 24" or it even starts up and then suddenly shuts down. Protocol 24 means the server is using the retail version. (1.00)
AJL Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 That is very good map but it would have been nice to have FFA version of it too... And because of some unknown reason my mod doesn't like that map very much...
tFighterPilot Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Originally posted by manoman81 Yeah I was on a server where this person or whatever decided it would be funny to fly ships into everyone. The team I was on couldn't even come close to completeling any objective because of this kid.... On the subject of Jedis jumping the aircrafts, someone jumped on me right as I was lifting up to take off and I sorta killed....Sorry who ever that was.... Happened serveral time to me. Why are those idiots jump on my X-Wing?!? It's quite funny when 2 imperials are trying to get inside the same ship, and one of them drops down to space
Master William Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Yep, I got 1.01. It has been giving me this "Siege classes could not be found" error even before I downloaded this map. I get the error on all Siege servers. I can create a server with the map though...
Kurgan Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Maybe it's time to clean up your /base folder (remove all the mods except for destroyer) and reinstall JA and the 1.01 patch. Then try it. Maybe there is some file you've got that's conflicting.
Crow_Nest Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Y'know when i first saw the map i was smiling, but when i played it i was like :\
Dr_night Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Hey, did ya know that once the shields are down (tractor beam is all that's left) you can board the imperial hangar and take ties, I've had the rebels leave the tractor beam until 30 seconbds left after stealing all 8 imperial ties (teams were unbalanced) and leaving them stuck in the hangar! Also, if you low down your ship as much as possible, you can pass THROUGH the shield as both imperial and rebel, but you'll usually get shot before you can try it.
manoman81 Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Question: Has anyone tried using Teamspeak or anything like it with this yet?
Andy867 Posted February 27, 2004 Author Posted February 27, 2004 You mean like voice commands and such? I use them all the time. Like Stick together, and I require some assistance, or I'm coming. Just stuff like that I use. and the occasional "MEDIC":)
Amidala from Chop Shop Posted February 27, 2004 Posted February 27, 2004 Originally posted by Andy867 You mean like voice commands and such? I use them all the time. Like Stick together, and I require some assistance, or I'm coming. Just stuff like that I use. and the occasional "MEDIC":) Teamspeak and Ventrilo software allow Voice over IP (VoIP) communication, so you can actually talk to other people you are playing with\against in an online game. Yes, no more typing, no more "chatkills", no more chatbinds, just real-time voice communication with wireless (cell phone) sound quality. And it's free! If everyone used it, online gaming would be so much better. Unfortunately, 95% of people are too lazy to download free maps, map packs, client-server mods, etc., even semi-offficial JA Bonus Map Packs from Raven, much less something like Teamspeak or Ventrilo that takes 5 minutes to set up, so forget it.
Andy867 Posted February 27, 2004 Author Posted February 27, 2004 Ahh ok, never head of teamspeak, but I use ventrilo, actually thinking about using at our "testing", Amidala:) have a couple people be on the rebel server, couple be on the Imperial server, and let them have their commands.

I'm just fine with my ocasional (when with rebels) Red_Leader: Red leader standing by (when with empire) Alpha_Leader: Alpha leader standing by (yes, I have binds that changes my name )
manoman81 Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 OK I was just wondering. I have yet to use it while playing. Is there any difference between Ventrilo and TS, one better than the other?
Crow_Nest Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 Originally posted by manoman81 Question: Has anyone tried using Teamspeak or anything like it with this yet? No, it causes lots of lag with everyone speaking. Chatting normally is better.
Andy867 Posted February 28, 2004 Author Posted February 28, 2004 Contemplates onto whether he should tell the public that Asteroids is now coming with a new version of... Or maybe tell them the new version has new... Or maybe... Oops I've said too much
Kurgan Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 Now Andy, what did I tell you about not getting the fans too excited before it's time? ; )
Crow_Nest Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 Originally posted by Kurgan Now Andy, what did I tell you about not getting the fans too excited before it's time? ; ) Andy has gone mad ever since the day before the release of the star destroyer map
tFighterPilot Posted February 28, 2004 Posted February 28, 2004 remember me in the game |GG|Crow_Nest? I was Red_Leader and\or Blue Leader
Kurgan Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 Thanks for the tips AIVAS! Those voice programs sound interesting. As long as they don't require any special equipment (maybe I'll get one of those microphone headsets just the same) or cause extra lag I'm all for trying them out. I remember back in the day people raved about Roger Wilco, but it was shareware and didn't work with my soundcard (at the time). I never did get around to trying it for online gaming... Voice Commands are rather helpful in Siege and in Destroyer especially!
Master William Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 Wait a second... I thought Asteroids was the siege_destroyer map? Oh god I'm confused...
SlapNut Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 not many servers have it yet, and the ones that do make me have 300-400 ping and i have broadband.

Kurgan Posted February 29, 2004 Posted February 29, 2004 Wait a second... I thought Asteroids was the siege_destroyer map? Oh god I'm confused... Destroyer is the two hangars and the small asteroid field around the ISD. Asteroids by contrast is two (slightly different) hangars and a HUGE asteroid field. It actually has two maps, one with an addition giant asteroid in the center that you can fly through, and the other without the giant asteroid. Asteroids adds four new ships plus numerous tweaks and bug fixes to the formula as well.
