Mumble 1.2.3 is out

=MUPP= oGre — Sat, 19 Feb 2011 22:54:21 +0000

Get it here.

Read all about the new stuff here.

The servers will be updated shortly.

Official release note is here.

HLStatsX CE updated

=MUPP= oGre — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 21:34:07 +0000

1.6.13 of HLStatsX:CE has been released.

The tf2 servers have been updated.

tf2.muppfarmen.se up and running

=MUPP= oGre — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 00:41:43 +0000

MYSQL and lighthttpd have been chosen to handle the workload. HLStatsX CE is installed and the server is fully functional again.

tf2.muppfarmen.se in the virtual xen-space

=MUPP= oGre — Fri, 21 Jan 2011 07:56:17 +0000

The work involving tf2.muppfarmen.se and mumble2.muppfarmen.se is progressing.

The server is now a minimal Debian Squeeze running as a XEN appliance. The next step is to set up a http server and a MySQL server for web and database duties.

mumble2.muppfarmen.se is up and running as of now.

tf2.muppfarmen.se is up, but the HLStatsX CE engine is not up yet, since we haven’t set up the database and web portions yet.

tf2.muppfarmen.se down for maintenance

=MUPP= oGre — Thu, 06 Jan 2011 19:54:54 +0000

tf2.muppfarmen.se and kf.muppfarmen.se will be taken down for a while. Killing Floor will move to another machine on a static IP (hopefully tonight), and tf2 will rise again as a virtual instance on our upcoming XEN based cluster. The upcoming virtualization will take some time, so don’t expect the server up and running within the next week or so.

Also our backup mumble server mumble2.muppfarmen.se will be on hiatus.

Mumble 1.2.3 RC released

=MUPP= oGre — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 10:02:38 +0000

The Mumble team has released 1.2.3 RC1. There are still a few bugs to iron out, but rest assured that 1.2.3 will arrive soon. The news in this release can be found here.

We have already updated one of our servers to the new release (found a bug as well..). If you want to try the server, make sure that your sqlite database doesn’t have a table named servers_old (which it will if you upgraded from 1.2.1 to 1.2.2). Otherwise the database upgrade will fail. FINALLY they have decided to use ordinary bzip2 compression on the server archive.

Left 4 Dead servers get shiny new SourceMod + MetaMod:Source

=MUPP= oGre — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 13:10:36 +0000

Since today’s patch Left 4 Dead is getting more like left 4 Dead 2 and Orangebox based games. This means that an all new MetaMod:Source and SourceMod snapshots are needed until the next version comes along.

https://bugs.alliedmods.net/show_bug.cgi?id=4680

The latest snapshots have been installed on the servers.

Sourcemod 1.3.5 released

=MUPP= oGre — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 12:57:14 +0000

This version includes updates for TF2, L4D and L4D2. However, in order to get SM to work with Left 4 Dead you have to run a snapshot of MetaMod:Source.

The Left 4 Dead serves have been updated, and the others will follow soon.

Check out what’s new here.

Hlstatsx updated on tf2 servers

=MUPP= oGre — Sat, 16 Oct 2010 16:32:21 +0000

The statistics engine has been updated to 1.6.11 on all tf2 servers.

Mumble 1.2.3 is coming

=MUPP= oGre — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 07:08:03 +0000

It’s been a while since 1.2.2 came out and the Mumble team have been busy redoing the overlay (again) and working on exclusive audio output. The features should be listed here. According to a blog post, the release could be sometime in August.

A nice thing about the new overlay is that it is very customizable, with the default being a square slot per player showing their avatar and their name. You can also bring up the full Mumble window in the overlay, making it possible to change channels, settings and so on from within the game. Everyone trying to alt-TAB out of a source game and back again knows how painful that can be.

If you want to try it out and help the team squash the last bugs before release, just download the latest snapshot and give it a try. A few of us have been running snapshots for two months without any serious problems.
