Howdy all I've been checking these out on my server and they seem pretty legit however I've been having tons of issues with CLOSE QUARTERS DM.
I've downloaded it via both the Game Modes forum and RTB and there's a few differences:
RTB has a Bow, Spear, and Deagle looking pistol whereas the forum version has a frag grenade, Discombob, and is missing a weapon across from the LMG.
RTB is also missing the parkour add-on. (intentional?)
The forum version doesn't allow you to zoom out into third person.
The forum version's LMG is really buggy. You can fire it but when you let go of the trigger and attempt to fire again the LMG disappears and is replaced by an empty hand. To get it back you have to cycle to another weapon and then back to the LMG. Also the weapon slows you down while firing which is fine however if you hold down too long you become stuck at that speed regardless of what weapon you're using. Killing yourself is the only fix.
The horse on the map is really annoying because of the invisible walls around it. People empty entire clips into it before figuring out that their opponent is using it as a shield.
Most importantly this game mode causes major server lag depending on which version you download:
The RTB version spams the console with some crap when I use trace(1); I can't figure out where it's coming from. This is with one player online.
The forum version's parkour is broken. It spams the console with a 'is player on ground' check which causes a lot of lag with just 2 people online.
Lastly the RTB version is missing a few files:
Emote_Critical,
Weapon_Package_Tier1,
Weapon_Package_Tier2.
Basically at the moment this game mode is unplayable.
:(
Edit:
By manually installing the missing add-ons and removing the forum files I've managed to get the game mode to work. So far anyway. I'll mess around with it and if I noticed anything funky I'll post it here.
