The motd? Look in your FortressForever folder and look for the motd.txt and edit that.

I don't think that's what he's talking about...also doesn't the MOTD still only allow like 2 lines?

Still a bit confuse..

A HTML MOTD like the many you see in TF2/CS:S? If you want a HTML MOTD, that doesnt work for FF.

puppychow · 04-22-2008, 10:14 PM

oh..me confused too then

Do you mean like when they are connecting to your server you want something ike the loading screens for the maps or more like once they are in you want to display something with your server info?

The screen that appears when you start a game in TF2 is very different in Fortress Forever. It's replaced by a small bit at the top of the team select screen.

yep...a small bit that is broken b/c it does not allow you to scroll down.

there are, however, plugins you can get for SourceMod that will allow you to cast a real MOTD to the player ingame. But idk how buggy they are; 82694 would know, he trolls alliedmoderators more then he does the FF forums

.

EDIT: He *could* also edit each map's .res and / or loading screen files to be his own custom one if he wanted. That or opt to not upload said files onto the server and then edit the default loading screen to be something he wanted as opposed to what it is now. although I think that is client side, in which case he would have to force the client to dl his loading screen instead of the default one and that would probably mess people's shit up real good!
