Hey all,

New admin here setting up XP2.0a Excessive5 on my server (Chicago, US). I'm assuming the Borg and JDS 2.0a CTF servers are using the included "excessive5.cfg" on their servers for matches? I watched some demos of Evil vs. JDS and everything looks great. Just wanted to make sure folks weren't using some slightly tweaked or modified rendition of it.

Thanks!

Breakneck,

Some others are using e5r, which is a config with instant switching (even after shooting) and where rail is insta, but since you come from pants you would probably like excessive5 the most. You could also experiment with excesissive1-4, which come already with the default 2.0 installation.

Btw, as i stated on other forum, feel free to add me to msn and i can assist you with any question you have, im also interested in an usa excessive server, always liked the speed that ctf games can get.

Thanks Beast, in the process of adding you to MSN. What I need is a copy of the excessive5 config folks are using. I'm not interested in others. Don't want insta-rail. Like the insta-weapon switch.

I'll be in touch for sure!

Breakneck,

the config you saw on Evil vs JDS is the one included with E+2.0a.
Borg server does use a modified one.
When seeting up a server watch out for these settings:
[code:1] set xp_config "conf/excessive5.cfg"
set xp_railgun "0"
set xp_warmuprespawn "1"
set xp_space "0"
set xp_physics "0"
set xp_unlagged "1"
set xp_matchmode "1"
set xp_suddenDeath "1"
set xp_teamBalance "0"
set xp_chatProtection "0"[/code:1]

Excellent, that's what I was wondering. My first attempt to get things up tonight left me pinged out upon connecting (constantly). MOD changes had taken place though, it was weird. Wiped, reinstalled and gonna try again.

Only changes to the excessive5.cfg are under the MISC { section:

$xp_physics = 0; <---was already added
$xp_corpse = 2;
$xp_unlagged = 1;
$g_speed = 400;
$g_knockback = 1000;
$g_gravity = 800;
$xp_solids = 0;

Here is my server.cfg so far (CTF):

// Breakn3ck CTF | XP+ v2.0a Excessive5 Server Config
