    moviebattles.org is blocked in Russia

    I'm no expert (indeed I have no knowledge) of how Russian ISPs/law operates, but I believe It could also depend on how cloudflare is balancing traffic or if you're accessing the site via IPv4 or IPv6.

    Do you like new DOTF?

    I actually did some profiling of the new DOTF just after launch. With JKA hitting it's natural max framerate (approx. 580 FPS on my system @ 1080 * 1920, max graphics), it only uses about 20% of the power my GPU has available (GTX970) whilst maxing out one CPU core constantly. I am hoping to...

    try mono32 instead of mono. I think that's what its called.

    VOIP (Voice Chat)

    I can see the benefits in theory over using an external provider such as discord. However, in practice voice chat in games is rarely utilised to it's potential - in my experiance, so I doubt it would be worth the engineering effort to implement.

    The Evolution of Duel of the Fates

    Correct me if I'm wrong Mace, but most of that difference is probably getting rid of pit though I imagine.

    Technical Issue Game crashes when connecting to server (Steam) (Mac)

    I think this is going to take someone with more knowledge of OSX than I. The only thing that really stands out to me is the warning right at the top about forms not working in 64bit mode. A quick search suggests adding the flag --arch=32 to the mono command or using the command mono32 to launch...

    Technical Issue Game crashes when connecting to server (Steam) (Mac)

    did you download the Mac version of the launcher? That's the most likely cause for Mono not being able to load it.

    The Evolution of Duel of the Fates

    Catwalk will be available through another exciting mechanism called "Loot Boxes"! In all Seriousness though - Mace this is nothing short of a master piece. I tip my hat to you.

    Hosting Server How to Make a private server

    Need some details of your setup to really be able to help you. How have you setup your server? Are you trying to connect over lan or internet? If over the internet how is your connection set up? Have you enabled things like port forwarding?

    Activity dropped recently?

    Obviously easy enough to do, I still think that there should be a more engaging way to get the basics accross with the written guides for people that want the extra depth. I think most people want to dive straight in and having a massive "read this first" can be a massive turn off.

    Devs watch this

    I have sympathy for that guy, but this is less clear cut from a gameplay point of view I think. A lot of what he's complaining about is down to server admins - cant design around that. Other places, for instance where he's talking about being pushed over and easily killed as a soldier get less...

    Devs watch this

    Yea, I see a lot in there we've talked about internally. When I have the time i'll literally sit down with a pen and paper and note everything he found less than intuitive. Our new player experience isn't great maybe theres some low hanging fruit we can get sooner rather than later.

    Looking for moderators!

    I don't think that would stop anyone. As long as you are generally of good character then your application will be considered. A totally clean record is not a pre-requisite - though if you have been banned and not shown a willingness to post within the forums rules since returning that would be...

    Your 5 changes to sabering

    Whilst I agree with the number of hidden parameters I don't think you'll ever be able to totally eliminate it. If you consider gun play to be binary, the sabers are very much analogue. Gun play is easy. A shot is fired, it hits or misses, depending on what fired it and where it hit defines how...

    Your 5 changes to sabering

    Exactly this. Any game system should be explainable at a high level in no more then about five lines. I'd be pretty sure the number of people that could describe the saber system as is 100% accurately could be counted on 10 fingers.

    Improve administrating a server

    On a slight tangent to this - would particularly server owners find a lightweight server side auto-updater useful?
