Nutter

Out of all the pointless suggestions, you're going out of your way to make a suggestion urging for us to re-title the server because we have 40MB of non-generic downloads? Sigh

Thank you to every battalion lead and officer who sat with me in Discord to collaborate on this update Battalions that did not receive an update were either inactive or did not have a battalion commander who had any ideas in mind for anything that needs to be changed. In any event, you are free to DM me on Discord of Steam and I will follow up with an update for your battalions! Inventory System Corrected an error that was affecting a small number of users, allowing them to once again utilize their inventories Added a 60 second delay on player initialization on the server to prevent a players' inventory opening too soon. This should solve ALL the problems we have currently got with inventories Battalion Overhaul/Facelift I have made a ton of undocumented changes, and also FINALLY got around to the inclusion of some sprinkled VIP roles, as we have not had any clone VIP roles since the start of the server a year ago. This is something that got brought up on many occasions. Notes for future reference: No follow up from 104th - inactivity within the faction, and recently gotten an overhaul (but I did add my own little shit to it - and now there's plenty of damn classes) No current follow up from 212th - lack of ideas currently, will wait on follow up (ALSO THE BATTALION HAS A TON OF JOBS, SO AN OVERHAUL MAY BE UNNECESSARY) 104th Battalion *NEW CLASS* 104th Battalion : Medic *NEW CLASS* *NEW CLASS* 104th Battalion : Pilot *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 104th Wolfpack : Warthog *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 104th Wolfpack : Gunner *NEW CLASS* *VIP* 212th Attack Battalion *NEW CLASS* 212th Battalion : Medic*NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 212th Battalion : Boil *NEW CLASS* *VIP* 501st Legion *NEW CLASS* 501st Legion : Medic *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* Torrent Company : Hardcase *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 501st Legion : Pilot *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 501st Legion : Hawk *NEW CLASS* *VIP* 41st Elite Corps *NEW CLASS* 41st Elite Corps : Medic *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* Green Company : Combat Medic *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 41st Elite Corps : Jet Trooper *NEW CLASS* *VIP* *NEW CLASS* 41st Elite Corps : ARF Trooper *NEW CLASS* loadout presently incompleted *NEW CLASS* 41st Elite Corps : ARC Trooper *NEW CLASS* Green Company : Lead & Ward Jetpack added onto loadout Rancor Battalion Set to replace arc-y bois.

Oh, you just re-open the UI and the ability to purchase it is back. It is just to note what you have already bought, so you don't end up double-clicking.

Dear @Ghostieee, I hope you're able to buy a gamery mouse soon, and if not, hopefully you don't feel like you're missing out on any features that were targeted at players who have a mouse I expedited this update because the "get a mouse" comments made me die laughing. The Scrollbar Update Vending Machine Before After That one was overdue for an overhaul anyways. Made it look a little bit nicer i'd like to think Another nice thing is.. once you buy a perk, its buy button will be removed: Impromptu pricing changes: Discounted all wearable materials by roughly 25-50% across the board! Biomechanical 500k>250k Beacon 750k> 450k Smoke Trail 750k> 500k Dark Abyss 1m > 600k Red&Blue Smoke Trail 750k > 550k Dark Clouds 1.75m > 1m Artifact 3m > 1.5m Ghost 5m > 2.5m Propbuddy Before After Umm peep the search bar ^ Party Management Menu Scrollbar added, information condensed Before After I was considering just doing a search bar, but holy, the server was not happy. Neither was my brain.

Pointshop Exchange NPC As an alternative to purchasing Pointshop points or farming hours on the server to prestige, myself and @Proggy came to a nice compromise, Moving forward, players may exchange their RP cash for Pointshop points, at an exchange rate of $1500:1, or in other words, $1,500,000 for 1000 Standard Points. I even doubled down on the 'close' buttons so nobody can claim they accidentally made a purchase Upon completing the trade, you will receive a confirmation of your new balances Free VIP Trials! A new NPC class has been added onto the server, Non-VIP users may utilize this NPC to exchange RP cash for a week of VIP Each time this NPC is utilized by a player, the price of VIP will climb up by a set percentage. The first time purchase is a mere $5m Store Portal INFLATION HOUSING MARKET ADJUSTMENT I guess you could say the upper staff team got together and made a little inflation adjustment to our store. In the past, our packages were a $1:25k in-game cash at worst, and $1:42k at best WELP, with the recent events of players openly venmoing cash for RP Money trades, I thought it'd be the best time, as did the management team, to make a little adjustment to pricing The new rates are you can see will no longer get you mocked for buying RP cash, and they're the only safe and condoned way to exchange USD to in-game currency New rates are $1:300k at worst, and $1:$333k at best Miscellaneous Players can no longer arrest Staff on Duty

The way I look at it is even if he does end up leaving, it's not like there's any harm done. Yes, he's left in the past at critical times where he was needed, but at the end of the day. atleast for the community it's a net positive, having had somebody around who cared about the community and encouraged others onto the server. Good call

New IP & General Upgrades Similarly to DarkRP & MilitaryRP, this server has been migrated to a new datacenter, under a different host, with upgraded hardware This had to be done for all of you who were experiencing anything less than perfect performance, with prolonged downtimes and lag due to our last hosting arrangement (which we had been using for nearly a decade) The new IP is: 104.152.143.175:27015 The original server has been shut down - and will purely be used to redirect players to the next IP! The server's tickrate has been raised from 11 to 16 with the potential to go even higher in the very near future Droid Weapons Fixed an ancient bug that caused droid weapons to appear in their crotch, similarly to a penis All NPC behaviors will work correctly moving forward

You are standing on ancient grounds. Move along.

It was indeed a host issue, we had outdated hardware that our host refused to upgrade for 3 years, and that became accompanied by network instabilities. A big portion of hitreg involves how optimized a server is, but a large portion is also dependent on server hardware and networking to result in lower ping. take a look at mrp today and tell me how you feel

We have the most up-to-date vanilla keypads. The addon you sent is not keypads, it is a re-write of the code, which we actually use on our StarwarsRP server. Unfortunately I do not see a good enough reason to add it onto DarkRP, and if you have any 1 specific feature that you enjoy, please let me know and I will add it!

The server's tickrate has been raised from 30 to 40! This insane change will result in unmatched hit detection to other servers and movement, let alone will over 60-80 players online. I do not know if this change will be absolutely stable seeing as this change is downright stupid, but we should at the very least be able to handle 33 why not start big and see if we can handle it? NOTES: Passive Events have been temporarily removed from the server due to the fact that their author must whitelist our new server's IPs!

I read 1 sentence into @Corbzz's post, facepalmed, and stopped reading. Our server has hit 128/128 for years before alting was even an idea in people's head, and anybody who claims that "alters are the only reason we hit these pops" is a moron. I won't deny that alting is a meta that is helpful to the server in some ways, because at the end of the day we are competing with servers who do not have any alting culture, and as such resort to LITERALLY botting their servers. I personally see no issue with alters using their alts in order to farm printers for themselves, but the moment that money gets into circulation, it becomes an issue. I really don't see myself disallowing alters in the near future, but I do see myself and @Proggy cracking down on alters who are trying to sell DarkRP cash like it's RuneScape gold. WITH THAT BEING SAID, to address some of the noted concerns in this thread, IE: lower prop limits, or a full server, here is how we will address both: A) Prop limits being negatively affected by a fuller server isn't necessarily a bad thing, however, I can understand people wanting quite a bit more props. Roughly 2 months ago, we have increased our overall prop limit by anywhere from 25 to 5 depending on the time of the day, this was done to the fact I MASSIVELY boosted server performance with optimzations. As of today, we switched to a much more powerful machine, that can easily handle more server tasks. Our hardware is literally OVERKILL. B) When it comes to our server being full, I have firstly raised the limit back up to 128 from 118. Secondly, I may create a system where if a player has been online for over 24 hours and does not have any printers spawned in (IE: if somebody was raided while alting) they will be kicked for the reason "Prolonged AFK session with a full server" in the event that there is a queue. HALFLY ACCEPTED?

I will add as much protection as I can to prevent users from ever abusing our Cinema system to get our IP blocked. Director Rank Fully implemented, congratulations @stretchy and thank you for your hard work! Chess Returned, server stability up, 0 crashes in Janaury (will monitor in the future) Word Unscrambler Time duration has been doubled Word list has doubled (thank you openAI)

Ye man. We've always been located in Texas, so southwest/central south if that's a thing?

Our host was never located in the midwest, the new building is very close in proximity to the current from my understanding. Not sure if sarcastic or not, but your hitreg on MRP is about as good as GMod can get on a 50+ player server. We literally cannot be competed against in that caliber. rip Hopefully you've seen how much better Rust ran on wipe, 2 days ago.

Helping pop in the early mornings is about the only reason I considered allowing alting, and the fact that all our competitors seem to be doing so to heavily bot their way up the charts. Your comment of "You brought that upon yourself" is incredibly stupid. I allowed people to bring their alts to get printers if they choose to do so, I had never allowed them to use this in order to sell said printed money for real currency. If you want stuff to do with in-game money, maybe be useful and post a suggestion? OH OOPS - you've never went out of your way to try and bring new ideas about, just complaining. You guys are actively destroying this server and ruining the economy for regular players, by reaching unrealistic wallet amounts. While this will still not be actively moderated, because frankly, neither me or @Proggy want to deal with the hassle, just know you're viewed as nothing by a rodent who's hurting the server for their own financial benefit.

I would also suggest wiping people's wallets when they are caught in the act, but everybody already knows that this is how I feel about the issue. There are no positive aspects to people exploiting the economy of this server by hosting a plethora of alts in order to sell the money for real-cash transactions. Proggy seemed to be in disagreement of banning said players, and I will leave it at that.

Dear Members of the Garnet Gaming community, We understand that recently, our gaming servers have experienced some challenges due to host-related issues caused by DDoS attacks and general changes by said host without our consent. This has led to many crashes and unsatisfactory performance, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this situation has caused. On the contrary, we are happy to announce that we have acted proactively upon this situation and decided to switch to a new provider that is dedicated to providing a secure and stable gaming environment for you all. This change will greatly improve the overall quality of our servers and eliminate the issues that we have been facing for these past 3-4 days. Furthermore, we should also see some better server performance as all our machines are being upgraded to more recent hardware that can withhold higher populations. Myself and @Proggy have spent an obscene amount of hours (working until 5:30AM in instances like today) to ensure this change goes smoothly. As of right now, the scheduling of our migration to the new hosting service is looking like so: Rust > 2nd week of February 2023 Garry's Mod > 2nd week of February 2023 OR SOONER SQL databases > 3rd week of February 2023 OR SOONER Web Hosting > 4th week of February 2023 OR SOONER We appreciate your patience and understanding during this transition, and please make sure to stay tuned to any IP changes coming up this following week! Best regards, Garnet!

Hello Draig and thank you for your interest in becoming a moderator on our Starwars RP server. I appreciate your dedication in making this post and reviewing the rules. However, at this time, there is really not much of a need for additional moderation within our server. While this isn't grounds for denying your application, I am just letting you know there will be limited room for growth/promotions in the meantime. Instead, I would encourage you to consider becoming a Game Master. This role would still allow you to help create a positive and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone. Would love to know if this is something you're interested in, as the application is slightly different.

Hello Garnetto SWRP players, Please warmly greet @Verax as a new executive member to our community. Verax will initially be working as a contractor for the community - particularly focusing on the ClonewarsRP server, but based on his performance and enjoyment of being part of our community, as well as the results he is able to produce as to help our community operate smoothly, he may hold a permanent executive role. With his successful track record of leading thriving communities, I am personally confident that Verax will play a significant role in the growth and success of our CWRP server which has been at a stale position/decline for the past 6 months. For just 3 hours Verax has been observing the workings of our Clonewars server to identify areas for improvement and provide valuable feedback to streamline the work of our GM team. This update is aimed at easing the GMing system currently present on the server: Lunas Flight School Addon updated to the latest version! *NEW* HMP Droid Gunship *NEW* One more entity to our LFS arsenal to be used during events, particularly for CIS utilization NOTE: this is a large entity, GMs, please beware of where it is spawned *NEW* NU-Class Attack Shuttle *NEW* A predecessor to the Lambda, to be used by the Republic Navy during events This shuttle features a full interior with 15 seats Gamemasters Tool Gun Re-disabled sound functionality from the tool. This was over-written the last GMod update Physgun Glow associated with physguns has been removed from the server. This may take a restart of HL2.exe in order to apply onto clients Loadouts Upon switching to the Gamemaster class, your inventory will be stripped of all but the bare necessities to complete your duties - including donator weapons, and inventory access. This will allow GMs to easily switch between their 3 primary used tools, including a physgun, gravity gun, and tool gun. Godmode Due to the fact that No-Target tooling by itself wasn't enough to prevent NPCs from accidentally shooting you down as a GM completing your duty, I've added "Godmode" functionality to staff members who are noclipping while on "admin duty" This will prevent AI or players alike from shooting you down while you're trying to host events. Hologram Creator Tool Utilize left click or right click while aiming at a player in order to materialize them onto a hologram, utilize right click in order to turn yourself onto a hologram NPC Control Tool a suite of NPC-related tools which may greatly enhance RP NPC Controller - this tools allows you to select an NPC (Left Click), and then make that give NPC follow a path which you determine (Right Click) NPC Follower - works similarly to NPC Controller, however, the target they follow cannot be a chosen location, but rather another player or yourself NPC Health - this tool simply allows you to override the health of a spawn NPC NPC Proficiency - Allows you to set the aim proficiency for a class of NPCs, IE: all Security and B1 droids. This ranges from poor aim, where they will hardly hit a player, to pin-point perfect accuracy. NPC Spawner - the most thorough tools of the above, this tool will allow you to set a pre-defined spawn point from which NPCs will spawn on intervals, with a given list of weapons, as well as pre-defined intervals. This way you may create a steady flow of NPCs without having to continually spawn in NPCs Over time I will refine and re-create all of the above tools to work seamlessly with our own assets Chatbox Optimization A very thorough optimization patch was pushed through to the Chatbox, including the deletion of old messages, and better caching. This was done so that now that we have boosted client performance somewhat, we can take it away by introducing far larger acceptable string lengths to chatbox messages, allowing GMs to input very long and thorough lines of text in events. At this point of time, I do not have the knowledge on how to do so, so I may need to reach out to another developer contact :^) Medical Duty Wardrobes More wardrobes have been added across the map, a few notable locations include all of the outposts present on the map, as well as directly outside of Clone and SOB bunks. This will alleviate the issue of players being unhappy with the wardrobe addition. Additionally, the command /medicalduty has been enabled STRICTLY for off-world events! Offworld: Onworld:

The portion you love is actually by @Ozzy lel

This update was planned to be significantly larger, but I presently do not have anybody to test with, so the remainder of our planning will be pushed to another day. Gamemaster Made wooden props and props from breakable categories take damage again for event uses Added bypass for physgunning vehicles to not detect player collisions/change collision category Made physgunning props more forgiving when it comes to player-blocking detection (physgunning a prop into a player) Added Rope tool back to selection Added Nocollide tool back to selection Added Button tool back to selection Added No Target tool back to selection Head Gamemaster has been given the ability to spawn props Quiz Desk A QoL feature to help players who are connecting for the first time and do not wish to wait north of 30 minutes for somebody to train them (the case more often than not ANYTIME i'm online) I really apologize for the lack of proper attention this server gets my dudes. Weapon Balancing update commit done by @Ozzy Change Log Fixed Honey Badger to have proper muzzle flash Increase UMP magazine size to 30 from 25 Decreased the firerate of MP-153 to match other pump shotguns Decreased the Spread Cooldown on PPSH so that it properly accumulates spread. C858 had it's damage decreased and recoil increased to match other AR counterparts XM1014 had a decrease in firerate, decreased mobility, increased clump spread, and fires fewer pellets Removed ammo types from the TOZ Increased Recoil among all LMGs to increase dependence on Mounting and positioning.

No, medical duty is entirely disabled in favor of that wardrobe. I can place it directly outside med-bay

Inventory System A sizeable UI rework was made, there will now be 10 items per row of inventory space (previously 8 ) and 4 extra inventory slots have been added making the inventory 25% larger. The size of the inventory itself is now much more compact (73% of the original size) and has been optimized heavily for framerate Before: Existing players please NOTE On players connecting I must run alot of weird networking in order to adjust everybody's inventory sizes to accommodate the new standard, please give changes 24-48 hours to take effect (1/28/2023) before screaming at me that things are broken. When the change is finalized, your inventory should look like this: Additionally, usability has been improved in a multitude of ways, too many to list, but i'm sure alot of you would've appreciate the changes. Some of those include UIs staying around even when no longer usable, IE: when you drop items and clear them from your inventory, but the "DROP" button is still on your screen. One more example would be accidentally right clicking an empty slot Finally, Crafting UI has been "REMASTERED" as it was previously just chopping right through text, with a MASSIVE craft button overlaying the entire thing Or as a wise @Juno perfectly summed it up Jedi Kyber Crystals Additional Kybers have been added to the server Those will serve as THE most rare crystals to be collected and have been tossed onto their very own loot table rarity class Orange Purple Certifications UI rework inspired by the recent MRP gasmask and parachuting update Before After Additionally, when on duty for any of the following roles, the following will further be highlighted Medical Duty Wardrobe A more efficient and RP-oriented replacement for "/medicalduty" In med bay, you will be able to find a "Medical Duty" wardrobe, this wardrobe may be interacted with by pressing E In the event that your job does not carry an official medical duty model or I missed something, you will get the following message as a followup: Other than that, it's the same old, and your medical duty model will be your permanent model until a respawn occurs 41st Elite Corps List of models has been entirely re-hauled, requested by @Jake and @Luxembourg

501st Legion This battalion is once again open with a commander appointed in order to host tryouts and provide some growth to the servers New Player Quiz An entity has been added to aid in players beginning to play off in our server, no longer will players need to be notified of the utilization of /quiz, but rather, in the recruit room there will be a desk at which players can utilize "E" in order to initiate a newbie quiz in order to be whitelisted for Rifleman Gamemaster The ability to physgun all turrets has been enabled! Corrected automated event NPC behaviors, where they would drop weapons (category: NPC Clearing/Protect) Creatures A new class of event NPCs has been added to the server, one that for once is not humans or droids. This adds up to a grand total of 53 additional event NPCs have been added, to provide GMs with lots of inspiration. Class Changes Republic Navy : Director Access to Naval Team "U" Chat has been granted Ability to accept all vehicle requisitions has been granted Whitelist capacity has been lowered from 3 to 2 Level 5 Keycard has been added onto the class' loadout. Republic Commando : Assailant Hook has been added onto the class' loadout, replacing the Jetpack 104th Battalion : Commanding Officer DC-17 Extended has been replaced with Dual DC-17 Extended 104th Battalion : Executive Officer DC-15S has been replaced with a Jetpack 104th Dire Company : Specialist Ping Launcher added onto loadout 104th Dire Company : Operator DC-15A has been added onto loadout 104th Dire Company : Leader Ping Launcher added onto loadout Level 3 [Green] Keycard has been added onto the class' loadout. 104th Wolfpack : Succor DC-15LE added onto loadout Level 2 [Yellow] Keycard has been added onto the class' loadout. 104th Battalion: ARC&ARF DC19LE has been replaced with DC-15LE F4 Menu Very minor changes Special Operations Brigade & Pilot categories were given a unique icon to distinguish them from the regular clone categories
