ManiaPlanet 2 Beta Server 2012-07-25 - beta1.2

[xbx]

Hi!

beta 1.2 update!

You can find the download there:
http://files.maniaplanet.com/ManiaPlane ... -07-25.zip

as usual there's compatibility old/new clients with old/new server, but it's best to upgrade to get all the improvements.

the titles were updated, as well as the scripts.


To run a trackmania platform server, the procedure is the same as for elite, joust & co...
That is to say:
1- "buy" the title with the master account (that is the account with which the server accounts were registered) by loading platform into a station.
2- run the server with /title=Platform@nadeolive [note that's @nadeolive and not @nadeolabs unlike for joust, elite and heroes] (or change the title in the config file)

example:

Code: Select all

./ManiaPlanetServer /game_settings=MatchSettings/CanyonPlatformA.txt /dedicated_cfg=cfg1.txt /title=Platform@nadeolive

there are three playlists included in the pack, CanyonPlatformA, CanyonPlatformB and CanyonPlatformC.

EDIT 1 :
I just released 1.2b : it's a minor update including only server-side script bugfixes. Only useful for Shootmania

Siege:
+ Fixed: Sometimes a pole was skipped (double capture)
+ Show the number of Laser, Nucleus and Rocket in your team during the weapon selection sequence

Royal:
+ Automatically activate the pole after 90 seconds (can be edited in the settings)
+ Use correct sounds for messages
+ Show the name of the winner at the end of the map, even if he's offline or in spectator

Joust:
+ Fixed the server script error when a player leaves the game

The patch for the dedicated server can be found here : http://files.maniaplanet.com/ManiaPlane ... ta1.2b.zip
Unzip over previous server folder.

EDIT 2 :
Here's 1.2c : Fixes the Joust script crash
The patch for the dedicated server can be found here : http://files.maniaplanet.com/ManiaPlane ... ta1.2c.zip
Unzip over previous server folder.

Where I can find the maps? I just loaded Platform A and want to have B and C maps too on the server, but I cant find them on the dedicated server.

xbx, here's your standard reminder to fix the help strings for some methods.

Also don't forget to update this topic with 1.2:

I just downloaded the update and I can't see any "Platform" related files other than "Packs\Platform.Title.Pack.Gbx". There are no Platform matchsettings files at all?

From the first post in this topic:

there are three playlists included in the pack, CanyonPlatformA, CanyonPlatformB and CanyonPlatformC.

Check the first post to see instructions on how to use them and how to start the server for the Platform title.

So how do I get the CanyonPlatform playlist files so I can edit them to create custom settings?

If you just want an example matchsettings (i started a ingame server and sent a SaveMatchSettings to get it)

If you also want the maps, the easiest is to wait a complete archive with maps+matchsettings, but you can also get them by launching an ingame server then connect on it with another game to save each map one by one :p
