Support Requests / Ladder games.

« on: August 16, 2019, 08:33:30 AM »

So now there's 2 admins involved in the discussion, can someone answer my original questions?

So how do we get the game where me and kangar00 beat jordan and strata yesterday to be included on the doubles ladder?


Is it not there because jordan disced at the end?

Congrats to tk and tora for totally ignoring this request for information about the ladder but continuing to post in the same thread. Great admin work guys

Couldn't really care less about one silly 2s game but can someone please explain how this works?

Server.War2.ru / Some idiot is attacking the forum?

« on: August 16, 2019, 07:05:51 AM »

In the last 10 minutes the number of guests has been fluctuating between 2000 and 2400, this seems a tad high no?

-- edit --

also saw all AH connections simultainiously elapse on the status page, but this seems to have fixed itself now.

Server.War2.ru / Winchester's mother is fully pro

« on: August 10, 2019, 01:48:02 PM »

Oh I didn't know your mum played. You should get her to make her own account

If you wanna instead talk about my mum though (changing the topic yet again) , she played warcraft 2 on the playstation with me when i was 8 years old. While she wasn't the best, she could still 10-0 you after 20 years of not playing the game, with her using the Faster speed while you use Fastest speed while being limited to the playstation controls after not touching a playstation in 20 years. much less warcraft 2.

Thanks for sharing all that stuff about your mum. I feel we're so much closer now

At first I thought this was just Winchester showing his normal position on the spectrum, but the more I think about it the more I am facinated by this pro wc2 playing mum. Sounds hot right? I mean .... just how good is she? While Winchester himself is about as interesting as the back of a refrigerator, I'm thinking his mum is some serious MILP action.

Server.War2.ru / [RETRACTED] Winchester is Dellam

« on: August 06, 2019, 11:10:43 PM »

Lol, Forum smurf, i don't hide that i'm Praisevivec, Mrlemonade, or Mrlemonade[iS], only reason i have the name

You forgot:

Snake888
Dellam
Della.AUS
Night~D.o.G

...and all the rest, you ginger muppet

ENOURMOUS ILLOGICAL PANICKING DUMMY SPIT REMOVED see it HERE if you want a laugh.

They are Winchester's AKAs.

Winchester is Dellam. I've known for years anyway, but now it's proved.



** EDITED BY MOUSETOPHER **

After some discussion, Lambchops has retracted this accusation in this post: http://forum.war2.ru/index.php/topic,5073.msg81373.html#msg81373

I have to admit that after this discussion I am now pretty sceptical about the whole thing for the simple reason that I really don't think that the person who owns the brain that produced the posts in this thread is capable of pulling it off.

In short: I think he's too dumb to be dellam. I am now more inclined to think that it was a remarkable co-incidence (and probably an ill-conceived smurf name one night).

As a result, Winchester I apologise for and withdraw my statement that you are a worthless piece of shit, as I now believe that was inappropriate. You remain a really creepy weirdo, and a grade-A douche. My condolences to your mum.

Mods & Development / CPU saver plugin

« on: July 10, 2019, 12:44:17 PM »

iL asked me to have a look at this so I made one.

Seems to work ok. My CPU usage shows 0 most of the time.

Have tried it in a couple of games with no lag.

Please test 


-- edit --

Have made this 2 plugins. There is 'C' for Channel and 'G' for Game.

You can use either one or both of them. If anyone has problems using this in-game, they can use the 'C' only and give their CPU a rest between games, although I am having no problems using it.

Note: The "Game" starts in the pre-game lobby, everything else is "Channel".

General Discussion / Good or Evil?

« on: February 03, 2019, 06:39:08 AM »

I was talking to Sepi about this yesterday, so I thought I'd post it here. There are crossovers with game theory and life in general.

If anyone here is into thinking and hasn't heard Radiolab I highly reccommend it, particularly the earlier stuff. It's been being produced since 2004. Here's a couple of episodes I was talking about.


The Good Show (Dec 14, 2010)    [MP3]

The Bad Show    (Jan 9, 2012)     [MP3]


They look at being "good" and "bad" and discuss the advantages/disadvantages.

Radiolab generally doesn't preach, push any particular agenda, or even draw any conclusions - they just present facts and research in an interesting and thought provoking way.


*PLEASE NOTE* - This is not in any way related to religion.

Server.War2.ru / Van for admin

« on: September 13, 2018, 01:28:49 AM »

I think Van would be a much better admin than tk.

These days noobs just don't get called worthless piles of shit enough, and I also think it would be awesome to see some hard-core lynch mob racism in admin blue print in the channel - but the main reason is because I think the focus has started to drift from what we should really all be thinking about: Tractors.

There's just not enough tractor related games and conversation on the server any more and I think appointing Van as an admin would go a long way towards rectifying this.

Perhaps if tk spends a lot of time hanging out in games and the channel abusing and threatening people, then goes and practices rebuilding Massey Ferguson engines for a bit then he might have a chance, but at the moment its no contest.

P.S. You all suck you bunch of newbie scrubs.

General Discussion / Carjacking Aus Style

« on: June 30, 2018, 05:34:54 AM »

Here's what happens when you hit an adult Kangaroo that's in mid-air.





That's a dead roo in the back-seat after going through the windshield. The driver's seat is on the right-hand side in Aus, so you can see here that this roo totally ripped the passenger side headrest clean off and bent the seat back on the way through.

Luckliy there was no passenger at the time and the driver survived. He was also lucky that the roo died on impact or it could well have disemboweled him trying to get out of the car.

NSW Ambulance said at least 83 car crashes resulting in injuries had involved kangaroos so far this year and warned of an expected sharp rise in that number over winter. SOURCE

Mods & Development / Handy PUD bitmap maker.

« on: May 27, 2018, 01:47:56 AM »

Looks like mostly my SS grabber is only being used to make pics of maps - not really in game SS, so this is probably much easier to use.

TuPaC asked for this so I just did a very quick and nasty hack of my pud editor project and made it a console app.

Just unzip then drop a .pud file onto pudpic.exe and it will make a .bmp file, without having to use war2 at all.

128x128 full map bitmaps are over 16MB so you will probably want to convert to png or jpg or whatever.

There's no error checking - if you give it a rubbish file it will just crash.


UPDATED 9/2018

Will now resize &/or save to jpeg format (see below).

Server.War2.ru / a new name

« on: April 04, 2018, 03:39:13 AM »

I don't know who all these other fools are, Mikoo and Miker. but I am the only one. I might have to change my name to snugglebear or some such shit.

That's a real dilemma buddy. Let's get the whole community together and brainstorm this issue.
