Comment | | Ban/Abuse Area Updates by Supernuker |
The old ban/abuse area has been closed to make way for a new and improved method and format of handling the requests in that area. Let me go ahead and go over what has changed.
First, we have split it up into three separate areas, Unban Requests, User Ban Requests, and Admin Abuse Reports.
Second, we are using a new required format for both the topic and body of the post. We have also made the body easy to copy and paste, theres a button which selects the format you need then all you have to do is copy and paste.
Third, users can no longer reply in the ban/abuse area. Too much trouble, flame wars, and confusion on part of the poster are just a few of the reasons why we have done this. Now only the admin handling it will reply keeping everything nice and readable.
We hope this new ban/abuse area will be a lot more user-friendly and will work much better than the old one. |

Comment | | New Abuse Manager by Supernuker |
I'd like everyone to congratulate Crimson13 who has been promoted to the rank of Manager. I'm pleased to announce that he will be serving the NukeSilo community as our new Abuse Manager and will be taking over all future admin abuse cases as well as ban/unban requests.
He has not only done an excellent job serving as a Senior Admin since he was promoted only a few months ago, but has gone beyond his duties to help further improve the TSRP Server and NukeSilo as a whole. Without him I doubt the NukeSilo Community would be what it is today. I know he will continue to serve and improve the community as the new Abuse Manager. |
Comment | | Left4Dead Update Released by Supernuker |
A Left4Dead Update has been released, which includes many much needed fixes for exploits glitches and other bugs.
I posted the full change log under the l4d general forum as it is quite lengthy. The topic can be found here.
The update has been successfully rolled out to our Left4Dead servers |
Comment | | Left4Servers now full version, TSRP now holds 30 players! by Supernuker |
I have upgraded the Left4Dead servers to their full versions today. Last night there was crash issues with the dedicated server across the board so I could not upgrade them to full versions.
However they are fully upgraded and running.
Outbreak is an advanced coop server now. (If you think this is too easy (or too hard) then vote to change it) It will cycle through the four campaigns, if you don't want to do the campaign it is currently on, then start a vote to change it to whichever one you want to do. If your the first one on you basically get your pick of the campaign without having to get someone else to approve it.
Infection is now a verses server. The only noticeable complication with this is it sends you right into the game on a random team, you don't get to pick which team your on. However just press your team select button (m by default) if you get sent to a team you don't want to be on (assuming there is slots on the other team).
All this information as well as how to join the servers is listed at http://forums.nukesilo.net/viewtopic.php?f=112&t=6968.
In other news, the TSRP server has been upgraded to 30 slots. We are running 30 slots in a trial period for one to two weeks. We don't expect lag issues, the server box has plenty of resources at the moment (even with the two new l4d servers). What we are evaluating is if admins get overwhelmed or, if there is too many players that it causes confusion in the middle of roleplay, and other similar things.
If you have any questions or comments about the l4d servers, or the TSRP server upgrade, then please let me know. Feedback on how the TSRP Server is doing when it fills up to 30 players would be greatly appreciated. |
Comment | | Two Left4Dead Servers now Online! by Supernuker |
NukeSilo is now hosting two public Left4Dead Servers for the NukeSilo Community.
They are running the demo now but will be upgraded to the full versions when the full game is released.
Outbreak is currently running on expert difficulty
Infection is currently running on advanced difficulty
For detailed information on how to join the servers with valves new join system please read my post at http://forums.nukesilo.net/viewtopic.php?f=112&t=6968.
Finally, there will not be admin applications for the servers, nor will there be any sort of amx_page system system available. If you require an admin for some reason then please utilize irc. Senior Admins or greater will be given rcon to the serve rand that is how we will manage it, if necessary we will seek out an admin system after the full game is released (we do not foresee needing to do this for the demo).
If there are any questions or comments please let me know. |
Comment | | TSRP Update on Oct 26, 2008 by Supernuker |
A TSRP update has been released!
We have added a jailtime mod for law enforcement.
Here is how to use the mod:
-Once the prisoner is in a jail cell, face them and type "/jailtime " to set a jail sentence on them.
-Once the jail sentence is up it will automatically uncuff them and teleport them out of jail to the pd lobby.
-If you do /jailtime on someone who has a jailtime it will tell you how much time they have left.
-You can cancel someones jail time with /jailtime 0
-If they are let out early it will also cancel the time and inform the arresting officer. |
Comment | | Servers back online by Supernuker |
Thanks to a tip from CPeanutG I was able to get the TS servers back online and running.
I am not sure if everything is running 100% yet, and there may be some plugins broken by valve.. let me know if you see anything that's broken.
The one thing we are aware of is the player count. The player count will now read 21 or 17, which in fact the max players are 20 or 16. The extra slot is for a admin to join on a reserved slot it needed and was hidden before. Since they updated it the ability to hide that slot has been broken but it will still return server is full if you don't have a reserved slot and attempt to join to the 21st or 17th slot. I've already knocked out the reserved slot out of the cs server but unsure if we are going to do the same with the tsrp/tsdm or if we are going to readd them to the cs server yet.

Comment | | Valve Broke the servers by Supernuker |
There was a server updated released shortly ago. We went to update our servers and now the servers will not start.
We are working to resolve the issue and figure out why as soon as possible. I"m sorry for any in convince caused, If required I'll be rolling back to an older version, though I doubt that will do any good in a few hours since everyone will have the newer version and the servers won't. |
