Anyone with an idea of what happened here ...

Last night I was in a server and the screen froze for a few seconds, went black and then came back up and it was like this ...

This happens to me occasionally in source games as well. I don't think I've seen tf2 do it though.

That could be true, but it was the last stage of Gold Rush, which favors Red spamming. Though, Blue, not surprisingly, won. And, when I went to spec to take the screenshot and people started getting auto balanced they, they just disconnected, not wanting to be on the loosing team. One guy got autobalance, disconnected and reconnected to get back on Blue!

I play on No Heroes (I pay for VIP) and stacking is an issue. Especially on their payload servers. People pick teams to join their friends. 4 people on the Blu team are on my friends list (and they are pretty good) and none on Red.

Also, VIPs don't get auto balanced and can switch team with a command that overrides the auto balance which makes it easy to stack.

Good place to play is definitely the KritzKast servers, or Facepunch (Remember to mute micspammers if you don't like it though).

Also, update.

Three new community maps added in the latest update (Koth_Lakeside, PL_Frontier and PLR_Nightfall). Thank God there are no more CP maps, I hate CP.

    • what other retro software do yall use

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
