It's in a pretty bad shape.
GameServers are the hosting company, and usually they are helpful. I asked them to rename the old file and do a fresh install. But they refused.
So I'm going through the entire server deleting everything that shouldn't be there.
Oh and I'm seriously looking at a dedicated server.....it's the fifth time in a month that GameServers have pissed me off.

thnx dog, the names are working again.

For anyone who can't see the names, make sure 'cl_solid_players 1' is in your config.
OK. I think I'm all done.
Most of the troublesome maps and textures have been erased and it's a pure DoD1.3 server again.

Do you mean Gameservers.com owns the server and we lease from them?
I always thought it was a dedicated server.
I'm a dummy

Nope!
Anyway, I had a thought and went and did some AMXX coding.
I've written a little plugin that swaps teams after a round win on certain maps like Jagd, Kraftstoff, Glider, Avalanche....
It evens things out a bit.
You should spawn on the other team with the same weapon (roughly)
Let me know if it works or it's annoying as hell...

I like the team swap, but some said they didnt. Some liked it a lot. Especially on Kraftstoff. We should run it longer to get a better response.
You rox Dog

Well, we can disable it for some maps and leave it on for others. If you like it, let me know which maps could use it.
I think it freshens things up a bit if you swap teams on certain maps. For example, Avalanche. Axis tend to win it a lot so by swapping teams it gives players the chance to try the other side.

i to like the team switch, although i always prefer to play allies.
on maps thtat are stacked in favour of 1 team it is a good idea.
is it enabled on sturm? that can be a lot easier to win as allies.

Right now it's only enabled on Ava, and those maps that are attack defend (such as Jagd, Kraftstoff etc)
I'll try and give you guys a list tonight!
Oh and as far as I know, we're the only server running something like it....I haven't seen a plugin out there for it.
