Well, this is a different plugin, but if you'd prefer not to contribute further, send me a PM with the details of the original payment and the email address you want the plugin sent to.

don't worry about it falcontx, but i do have one question. i have four other guys watching the server cause i can't do it 24/7 so will running the adaptive server size plugin and ultimate map manager plugin while other people have procon open without plugins cause problems?

No, it won't.

for the first list I have the min player set as 0 and the max set as 28, for the second list i have the min set to 32 and the max 56. are these settings properly configured ?

I'm curious to try it out but honestly I have my doubts that a special map sequence is going to bring people in any quicker than just setting to "24/7 Metro" or "24/7 Caspian" like those servers you see full all the time with no special settings - I assume its just because theyre already established and have been favorited by enough people..

 

Anyway can someone recommend a configuration/map sequence that's worked for them in jumpstarting a new/empty server? I *really* don't want to sell out to a 24/7 Metro scheme just to get people in. Thanks!

I start with noshar canals IN TDM mode 2 rounds, then metro conquest 2 rounds also and by the time the first metro map finishes the server is full.

it is full now and all thank is due for falcontx ultimate map manager and adaptive server size.

 

but seems like whatever i try I can't compete with a 24/7 metro only server, I know they are full all the time but where is the fun in playing one map all day long_? I have most of the maps in rush and conquest except for siene crossing conquest casue I don't like it :biggrin:

 

Do I need to post my paypal email here?

no you don't. I just asked this question on page 67:smile:

No, Adaptive Server Size doesn't need to match. In fact, it shouldn't. If you set the max to 28 in ASS and the max is also 28 in UMM, that means that the server would have to be 100% full in order for the map list to switch, which probably isn't going to happen. You don't have to set it to max in ASS, but it should be at least 32.

 

And no, they aren't. You shouldn't have a gap between the two lists. For example you don't have a map list set for 29-31 players. You should do something like 0-28 for the first list and 24-56 for the second. This way, the second list will load when there are more than 28 players, but it will not switch back to the first list until there are less than 24 players.

There are no special map sequences, but as you mentioned, some maps are better for a low number of players and others are good for a higher number. This plugin allows you the flexibility to do that. Getting the server started is the tricky part. In my experience lately, you'll probably need to seed the first 8 players in order to really get things going, regardless of what maps you choose.

I've emailed the plugin to everyone who has contributed. Please check your spam folder. If you still can't find it, send me a PM.

Is this normal? It is possible for the server to overwrite the min players and don't change map immediately after the 2nd round finishes.

I don't think I have enough details to properly answer your question, but I'll give it a go. The only reason the 2nd round wouldn't start would be if the number of players drops below the minimum for the current map list, in which case you should consider reducing the minimum value.

Yeah that's the problem. Is there anyway to force the 2nd round to start, despite having the minimum players go down the limit, so both teams have a go with both sides (defending and attacking). It's a bit weird to play a 1 round rush game.

Not at the moment. I'll consider adding such an option in the future.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. Players feel 'cheated' if they don't swap sides for Rush.
