Jailbreak III MotherShip Server

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

concrete: That would be an IRC chat screen :D, it's outlined over here. A bunch of you guys suddenly joined the channel and were then making non-responsive comments (for the most part). After a couple of minutes I realized that you guys must have been in a JB map playing, and not realizing that your in-game chat was showing up in IRC when you were looking at the screen.

There are no links to this exact forum in the map actually, there are screens for the news pages for the Screen mod and the news page here on Planet Jailbreak, as well as #utjb.

musta been the news thing

idunno i just remembered readin somethin that i had read earlier, didnt remember exactly where...


btw is there a (simple) way to update when screens (like on Rainmaker) have dead links in them?? one of the screens in the control area links to a 404 error...

hmm, I haven't noticed that. If it's a 404 I suppose it's probably permanent and in need of fixing. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to update them, by technical necessity really. To change screen settings you'd have to release a whole new version of the map. IMO That's probably a bit overkill in most situations.

bah oh well

its not a huge deal obviously, map is still awesome...

it would be handy if there was some way to update that kinda stuff though... cuz things online tend to change around alot for various reasons, plus it'd be nice if a server-runner type wanted to change the screen to customize it or something...

then again that's just my technically unl33t i-dont-have-to-do-the-work mind talking ;)

maybe somethin to consider for UT2k8 :p

I bet that dead link in Rainmaker is permanent without re-releasing the map. I'd say it links to a file that was on an ISP's server with which I no longer do business. I'm sorry about that.

Perhaps that's something you could suggest to Mych that he could implement in a future release of Screen.

*edit* let me clarify. :) He could maybe have an external file that contains the URLs for easy editing.

hahah yea the demand always seems to be ahead of the technology...

but yea that would be nice, like a map could have default URLs put in by the map maker that could be changed if the server admin wishes (lord that'd need its own separate menu system, etc etc)

oh well it's just another idea to keep in mind for the future i guess (along with making it so you can't effectively use behindview 1 while being the llama ;) im a h0r!!)

That depends on the server admin who can allow or disallow behindview on a UT2003 server.

yea true but i mean IMO the issue of whether or not BV should be allowed is 1 thing, but using it to overcome the "llama beer goggles" is different (on some maps you just cant help but accidentally shoot a recently released jailer so i use that tactic whenever that happens)

just wish you could use BV while still getting llamaised...

"Accidently shooting" a protected player doesn't automatically make you a llama. You have to inflict enough damage to kill that player before the llama hunt starts. At least that's what we have in mind for Jailbreak 2003, I never checked how that worked in UT Jailbreak 3.

I'll tell ya a little something.

Without doubt, every map we tested tonight (and there were quite a few of them) deserves a 10/10 for looks and playability.

Damn, wish I could map like that :/
