🥝 Community Kiwi Fortress - An unofficial Kiwi Farms Team Fortress 2 server.

[DOORSTUCK]

After a quick sesh last night I noticed a distinct lack of custom sprays. Get it together, guys.

 

[Darkholme's Dungeon]

Another kf community tag given! So it begins... Soon the farms will be ahead of you, beside you -- it will be part of everything on the parallel Internet.

 

[Pierre D'Olnique]

Redownloaded and holy shit why is the game almost 30 fucking gigs?
To my surprise my old configs, keybinds and whatnot are still there and work as they used to.

Happy to see I didn't completely forget how to move around on soulja, at least with the Quake RL. I can't fucking pogo with anything else, it just doesn't work. I'll probably go Medic first because I know nothing about maps released post 2013.

Can you disable or minimize player character's voicelines cooldown? Although that would require you to mute in-game chat messages for those voicelines with a plugin. The chat will become unreadable if not disabled. Could be fun to spam "pootis" with "Place Dispenser" command as a Heavy, make Scout say "sneed" with spamming the same command or "Place Sentry". I really doubt that will somehow affect the gameplay.

I set this for a trial period, it'll be undone when I restart the server tonight to apply some minor system changes.

Think people would need to run the same patched version of the game then as far as I remember from past Vanilla TF2 projects.

You can install it in steam under the sourcemods folder, so it's easy to install but has like one server that is constantly empty. In my opinion it's not worth it as it's an incredibly early version of TF2 with a very limited map rotation and only stock weapons.

A neat addition would be something like the Gimme plugin. That way any free-to-play alt has access to every weapon with a command. The plugin can enforce class limits on weapons and has a "permanent" mode that doesn't reset your loadout when you die or touch a resupply locker, only upon map change.

I've heard of Gimme but I'm not sure if it's good idea as a free-to-play can easily get achievements through SAM or an achievement server.

How is the workshop thing going?

There's a bunch of good weapons that aren't achievement items. Even if you're willing to grind out all the weapons you need, the F2P starting backpack is one page which is almost nothing. I have all of the achievement items and a few weapons and my backpack only has 7 slots left. So you have to wait until Christmas to get a backpack expander.

Hmm, I'll put it up to a poll after the next poll.

That might be caused because I host my textures in a separate folder within the materials folder called custom

Spoiler: What leads to the custom folder

/tf/materials/custom

If that doesnt work download the textures and the VMT file here

https://soyjak.download/f.php?h=2w-FDpNC

[/spoiler]
Also watch a tutorial on how to add custom textures to Hammer
Also to compile a map open the VMT in hammer ,click file and then run map.
Hover your mouse over the compile log and wait for a few minutes

Yeah you'll need to pack the textures into the map (or look up how to) since I can't accept the map like this as it'll genuinely take several minutes to download a 1 MB texture file without FastDL being available.

Also hear ye hear ye, since I am a retard that set the poll duration too long and can't be bothered to talk to the mods or wait two weeks to do two polls at a time, I am using strawpoll to raise general consensus:

1. Should CTF be turned into a "chill gamemode"

2. Should there be a plugin that allows players to spawn weapons?

3. Should we keep the player anonymization plugin?

These polls are valid until September 30th

So I decided to compare gamebanana and the steam workshop to see what old maps got ported over. I mostly got maps between 2007-2009, maps ported from other games, and others. I also found the original toyfortv2 on the workshop.

[skunt]

a possible workaround for opsec leaks would be just banning every single (numerical) steamid and only allowing new accounts created after the purge - they're numbered sequentially. have the ban message be something like, "create a new account retard"
if anyone gets doxed after making a brand new account, then they deserve it.

this also has the upside of annoying people who wanna show off their fancy fag hats.
one notable downside though is you'd have far less tourist players

People shouldn't get kicked because of some retards who can't opsec. If you get doxxed through a steam account, it's on you. Otherwise, use a burner account.

no shit they shouldn't. however most people are lazy/dumb/ignorant or a combination of all three so if some form of anonymity is necessary, forcing people to create new accounts is basically the only way.

 

[Rembrandt]

I don't think it's necessary. I appreciate the altruism but you'll lose your mind playing caretaker with online retards.
At best, for those who are interested, the OP could suggest steps for proper opsec. I'd leave it at that, rest is up to the users.

Redownloaded and holy shit why is the game almost 30 fucking gigs?

imagine if they added this map, but a 100 times individually

that's what they basically did

These are oficially in the game btw. You are downloading these when you download TF2

hard no, it's a logistical nightmare and it will create a lot of unnecessary false positives, if people get fucked up by their opsec it's on them, they get laughed at and it stays there, nothing more nothing less.

 

[get_ur_gamon]

Kinda like with the Space Station 13, we need to find a day where loads of people can jump on. The other option is adding a few bots to make waiting for other players more tolerable.

Added into rotation.

I have also received a tip from a kind kiwi and have closed a potential loophole which would allow the server IP (not the true true one) to be obtained for a very short period.
Unfortunately, this comes with the side effect that the server looks as if it had 255 players connected, this is not the case if you right click on the server in the browser and click on "View Server Info". I believe there is nothing that I can do about this as this is a SDR bug.

Also small server update, @Flaming Dumpster has kindly provided a US located machine for another instance of Kiwi Fortress to be setup on. This has taken place, for the moment please don't announce this on community happenings until Friday as I want two days to iron out any kinks and make sure everything is up to spec.

You can find the US West server on the server browser.

i really hope this doesn't fragment the playerbase
