Server suddenly removed from Doomseeker list

#1

Post by therourke » Fri Jan 31, 2014 3:14 pm

Hello.

I have been running a Doom 2 server under the name TACTICALGLITCHES. It was working great for a few days, and then disappeared from listings. No amount of tweaks will make it reappear.

I wonder if we have broken any rules or been added to a ban list range? For a short while we had an official Doom2 wad in a zip we linked to, which was removed once it was noticed. I assume this might have been the cause?

I can get it to show up if I direct to my ip addrss, custom server, but it doesn't show up in the public list (I have ticked the 'show in master server' button).

I can send ip address etc. if necessary. Any help much appreciated.

And yes it was banned from broadcasting on the master because you distributed Doom2, which is forbidden.

Thanks

Distributing the Doom2.wad was an honest mistake on our part. Have we done enough to rectify the problem or do we need to rebuild our wad file?

Any unmodified part of doom2 (such as textures, sprites, etc) should be removed considering doom2.wad is automatically loaded upon joining the server.

I might need a bit of advice. I have repacked the map, you kind see the file here:

EDIT: https://www.dropbox.com/s/em0ahn7h8afv5 ... ACTICS.wad

Would this count as acceptable? If not, I need an easy way to repack without any official stuff if you can advise... Thanks

Edit to above post...

I think I managed to remove everything. Please see the above file and let me know. If we can start running the TACTICALGLITCH server again with this WAD I would be super grateful. Please let me know

Yup! You're good to go friend. I will restore services here shortly. Check the server list about 15 minutes from this post.
