Test #1 - BUGTEST - Friday 25th November - 20:00 GMT/12:00 PST

Use that to work out the time of the test if you don't know how to convert, or check the Event in the Tester steamgroup (Make sure you're joined to this too) http://steamcommunity.com/groups/emptesters

This will be a BUGTEST, meaning we only need a small group of people.
We won't be playing proper rounds. The plan is to establish what state the game is in currently, and hopefully we can fix any glaring problems before the PLAYTEST the day after, which will have a lot more people attending for proper PUGstyle games.

For more information on the way tests will work, check out the Testing 101 thread.

Server details aren't needed as there should only be one test server up, the regular Empires servers shouldn't show up.

Regular Empires servers do actually show up. Server details including a password will be posted up before the test.

Server details:

connect 46.105.98.107:27050; password testingtime

 

Can you put the IP up anyways. When I switch to Testpires I sometimes can't load up the correct server browser

 

I will do closer to the time. Remember that this is a smallscale test, and Test #2 is the big one.

EDIT: Updated main post. It appears regular Emp servers do show up in the test version, so we'll have to give out server details.

 

you have a typo in the thread topic.

 

Fix'd.

 

Just downloaded the new GCFs, have everything carefully backed up and all, even copying over my config.cfg. Ready to go, 3PM EST.

 

Ok, so it turns out all those really bad armour changes I thought I'd reverted. I haven't. Tanks basically explode if you look at them, so this could be interesting.

 

Server details up, test starts in 15 minutes.

 

3:02PM, server has evidently crashed. :<

 

Restarted.

 

So, are these bindings crashing the server or the client.

 

something came up for me, sorry guys (hourglass 1 egged twins, god i love mark)

maybe next time

 

Ok, we restricted spectator to stop the server crashing, test is running.

 

Ok, good test all, even if we did crash a lot. We tracked down a lot of bugs and hopefully we can clear the major ones out before the pug tomorrow. Thanks for attending in such strong numbers, and I hope to see even more at tomorrow's pug if we're able to host that.

Use this thread to report any bugs you don't see reported here:

Just to clarify the way I've laid bugs out in that.

Ones marked IMPORTANT cause server/client crashes and are likely to happen on a regular basis.

Apart from that I've tried to arrange them in order of priority as well as I can (quick ones...e.g. adding a cfg will be near the top aswell). If your posting bugs here please give as much detail as you can

 

when I placed mines on top of jeeps, they would not explode if someone were to drive them, until the mines fell to the ground.

 

The coloration of the names of dead engineers with revive isn't working properly, on NF at the least. It tends to appear the same red as all the other dead players, sometimes even appearing a light blue color.

 

This is an old (5 years minimum) and unimportant bug. Have some judgement and decide what actually matters, because you should know by now.

 

grant-Is that really a bug? I think it happens in current steam version and wouldnt call it a bug but I will add it if others agree with you.

Candles-adding yours now

 

Minor Weirdness: Pressing E while standing on top of an enemy vehicle pushes you of the vehicle, as long as your not in the top middle.

Yes, weird and more a totally useless fun fact than a bug, but may be abused to glitch somehow.
