I can make available a BF1942 server in London, England and Gravelines, France. I would prefer to play our match there, if our opponents agree, instead of SoH server because the pings would be about equal for both teams.

Quality-wise this video looks like it was recorded 10 years ago. Do you play in 640x480 resolution? And the rifle sounds are so weird.
Nice video, though, with some very good kills. Good killing spree at 14:00.

Well, in ziggo's defense, he has very few kicks by minus score. I think he deserves another chance.
Please, be careful, ziggo, next time. Report disruptive players and they will be dealt.

Hello Caslon,

You can change the tilde key to bring up the console to another key in Common.con file. It is located in <BF1942 DIR>\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles\Custom\Controls. Open it with a text editor and edit this line:

ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_GIToggleConsole IDFKeyboard IDKey_Grave c_CMNonRepetive

For example, change IDKey_Grave to IDKey_F9 to assign the F9 key to console.

To disable permanently the radio icons, I don't know how this can be done.

recent three years' monthly averages for simple fra, according to the perhaps slightly imprecise gametracker

tomorrow the old ip redirection will be turned off, and the first ip switch for simple fra in 6+ years will be complete

latest rumour has is that 20 % still are using the old ip

there will be a player loss, both in the short and long run and maybe even permanently

i hope simple fra will recover as well as possible

just for fun, here's my predition of the monthly averages for the future :

( 80 % of 34 is around 27, so first month should roughly be at that, but i somehow think it will be much lower )


after one month :             20

after four months :          23

after a year :                     26

I think your prediction is probably right, but I hope you are wrong. smile

You make it look easy flying, smooth and calm play. Very good video! Now you should work on your video editing skills, not to cut the video abruptly at the end and connect the sequences better.

#495 Re: News and Announcements » Moving to Paris » 2018-02-26 00:28:48

This would be a lot easier, if everyone used hostnames to connect to servers. Instead of updating server lists and favorites, to reflect the IP address change, you would connect to team-simple.fr or play.team-simple.fr, which always points to the new IP address.

#496 Re: News and Announcements » Moving to Paris » 2018-02-25 23:52:11

What do you mean by disconnected? Your game crashes when map changes or you get "failed to connect" error message?

#497 Re: News and Announcements » Moving to Paris » 2018-02-25 13:05:16

I don't think so. Only trolls do it. The rest of the players are not tech-savvy to update their game and servers list or they do not simply understand english.

T-BONE has been warned before not to cause trouble again.

#500 Re: News and Announcements » Moving to Paris » 2018-02-25 12:06:01

The old server will be shut down next Wednesday. Around 20% of the players are still connecting to it, which probably means they won't connect to new server after it gets shut down. They have been noticed, though.

#501 Re: Technical Help » Overclocking your monitor » 2018-02-24 12:36:25

A note of warning, if you increase the refresh rate of your monitor too high and no image is displayed,  you have to reboot your computer and start Windows in Safe Mode (press F8 key before Windows boots). Open CRU.exe and delete that resolution entry. Reboot again and it defaults back to original refresh rate.

#502 Re: Technical Help » Overclocking your monitor » 2018-02-24 12:04:55

No, it will automatically edit some Windows inf files that override EDID to allow custom resolutions and refresh rates, that way you can easily test your monitor. You can read more information in the webpage of CRU.

#503 Re: Technical Help » Overclocking your monitor » 2018-02-24 11:49:42

You don't need to edit the EDID of the display, unless you want to make permanent changes. You can use a program in Windows called CRU. More on that later.

Great, thanks tuia. How many players do you think could register?

As many as possible. Not too many, as it can lead to delays scheduling the matches.
Tournament's idea is to first have a group stage, each group has 3 or 4 players and the best two advance to the elimination phase. There will be seeded players to balance the groups.

I recently found out it is easy to overclock your monitor, either in Linux or Windows. The purpose of overclocking your monitor, is you can increase the frames your monitor displays to match your graphic cards frame rate, giving an overall smoother gameplay without any stuttering. Usually most monitors are at default 60 Hz refresh rate, and can be overclocked to 75 Hz or more. Please note, that overclocking can shorten the life span of your monitor or even damage it. You do it at your own risk.

In Linux you can overclock your monitor  with the help of xrandr tool. I have a malfunctioning 24'' BenQ monitor, model GL2460HM, default resolution 1920x1080 at 60 Hz, and could, by trial and error, increase it to 82 Hz at 1920x1080. I followed this guide: https://github.com/kevinlekiller/linux_ … erclocking

Basically, you first compile cvt12, which is an improved version of cvt, to give reduced blanking timings. You type your desired resolution and refresh rate:

./cvt12 1920 1080 75 -b

-b switch is to calculate for reduced blanking timings, modern LCDs use it.  The output for my monitor is:

# 1920x1080 @ 75.000 Hz Reduced Blank (CVT) field rate 75.000 Hz; hsync: 83.925 kHz; pclk: 167.85 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080_75.00_rb2"  167.85  1920 1928 1960 2000  1080 1105 1113 1119 +hsync -vsync

Then, with xrandr you create a new mode line:

xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_75.00_rb2"  167.85  1920 1928 1960 2000  1080 1105 1113 1119 +hsync -vsync

After, you add the mode and output it to your display connection:

xrandr --addmode HDMI1 1920x1080_75.00_rb2
xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080_75.00_rb2

That's it! Your monitor blanks and you should have a higher refresh rate. If it goes out of range and no image is displayed, you have to reboot your computer or you can add a safe resolution command as explained here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xr … esolutions

xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080_75.00_rb2 && sleep 5 && xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080_60.00

It will revert back to default 60 Hz after 5 seconds of new refresh rate.

After you test and find the desired resolution and refresh rate, you can make those changes kick in after you login to your Linux distro. This procedure is specific to your display manager. I use LXDM and Xfce as desktop environment. I added to /etc/lxdm/PostLogin:

xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_82.00_rb2" 183.99  1920 1928 1960 2000  1080 1109 1117 1123 +hsync -vsync
xrandr --addmode HDMI2 1920x1080_82.00_rb2
xrandr --output HDMI2 --mode 1920x1080_82.00_rb2

Here is the proof my monitor is running at 82 Hz:
