General Discussion / Re: Question regarding usage of music in sound addons. (for gamemodes)

It should be ok as long as you cut the song down, the way I usually do it, is if a song is 3 mins then I cut it to 30 secs. This is for both copyright reasons and for less waiting times. Note that Badspot only checks sons posted on the forums. So if it's a private add-on you should be ok as long as it isn't some major artist or popular song (#dmca).

Your ATM idea is good but you will probably need it inside a building (bank shop etc) since players will get very annoyed with putting money in only to be sniped after putting 200 in.

The guideline for making any RPG is:
If you think, hey, people should not be able to do that, then restrict it by fixing the error yourself.
You have a good RPG, if you only require limited admins to tackle situational problems. Rules should only be basic and if you find yourself going into specifics in restricting something, then you should focus on fixing the error within the setup.

Agreed, I've been on a city rpg where it had 20 different rules. You should only need the basics ie. No spam. I might make a city rpg from scratch if I have enough time.

We've all probably heard of the gamemode 'city RPG', and all know there's alot of problens.
So I think we should discuss all problems of city RPG and try to find ways of fixing them.

Let me start us off:

"People always spam vehicle spawns"

Well you could just limit everyone to one vehicle spawn per player, I once made a fort wars gamenode (Long lost now) where it would keep track of how many bricks you placed. This was easy to make and could easily be implemented into city RPG to make sure you only have 1 spawn.

Is there a legit reason why gas is going down so much? I guess the companiss need a break from money gouging.

It's because 'Murica found a hell load of oil under the ground and can now extract it using fracking. So that means Saudi Arabia and that lot can't keep the prices high.

Is it even worth celebrating Christmas anymore since I know a lot of people who aren't even religious and to me it's just a way of shops getting lodsemone.

I just thought, wouldn't steam workshop solve all the problems in this topic? But Badspot probably won't add it  .

Ehh they technically can but not through normal server operations. You'd get the virus through HTML page the client loads when you join. There is a way in Source to disable the HTML loading but I forgot how.

On TF2 You just go into adv. options and check "Disable html motds"

Oh, I see it now. Well that's a real shame, A lot of my old game-modes I made relied heavily on sound effects. And it was pretty annoying when a lot of people couldn't even hear them.

Doesn't a .wav file go like:

000000
001100
010010
100001


How can you fit malicious code in that lol?

This isn't even close to reality holy stuff lol. The only custom things that servers can download to you are models and textures, they can't be used to give you a virus

I see your point, but how can a .wav file give you a virus?

I know, it's not like one person can't get a virus on a TF2 server either. All servers can give you a virus if you go on the wrong one...

Well it seems like most people like the idea, they are just worried about viruses. I wish Badspot would implement this but I guess we'd need some kind of system to report "naughty servers".
