WEEKEND GAMENIGHT: IF IT BLEEDS WE CAN RAPE IT EDITION

GAMENIGHT HIJACK STILL GOING STRONG!
Starting Friday 6pm UCT/11.30pm IST
This week's gamenight will not be CoD:UO but AvP2 instead. Why? Cause we felt like it and /strek/ disappointed us by not hijacking the Christmas gamenight so we'd thought we'd show them how it's done. Also we felt like punishing omorashi user for his terrible fetish

What game are we playing?
Aliens Vs Predator 2. If you need this shit explained to you then you need to sit down and watch some 80's action movies.

Where do I download?
mega.nz/#!Dsw2VJKA!UPme_Fq9ZK9fMdzHmFvSLTZu8z4vRmGTR3xzxCzJXtA
Just extract the contents of the .7z and it should be good to play.
Otherwise, if you're a legitfag try getting the master server patch and customclient from here
tbbcbase.net/

Linuxfags?
It does work but is a pain in the ass to get running.
appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7898

How do I play?
Launch the game from the AVP_CustomLauncher.exe Do NOT use the AVP2.exe. If you ask why this game is not running and you are not using the right .exe file you will be bullied.

Server?
YOU NEED TO INPUT THIS INFO MANUALLY
Go to Find multiplayer internet games and hit Join specific IP near the bottom:
69.245.114.214
port 27888
pw if needed: “infv”

FAQ
What gamemodes are there?
Standard Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch modes.
Survivor which involves every player starting as a survivor bar one as a mutant with the objective to be last survivor. As survivors get taken out they become mutants.
Hunt which is sort of like a Team Deathmatch but with a twist, one side play as a Hunter while others Prey with the only way to score points as a Hunter but if Prey kill a Hunter they switch places with that Hunter.
Overrun which is again sort of like TD, although with limited lives. One side attacks while the other defends with the objective of defenders to stay alive while attackers want to kill them all.
Evac involves the evacuating team trying to make it to the extraction point while the attackers try to eliminate them. Not much to say on this one other than evac team must stay at the evac point for 10 seconds to win.

>How do I change species/class and set my name?
To set your name and default species/class, hit Find Internet Game and then hit the Player menu. While in-game, hit F1 to quickly change species/class.

>What should I know playing as an Alien?
If you get close enough to someone's head, you'll get teeth on screen so you can use your tongue mouth as an attack, this also gives you some health back so make sure to headbite often. Your tail attack is also useful for stunning enemies. You see by scent so humans have a blue glow round their outline, predators have a green and other xenos have a red. Make sure to take advantage of your mobility. If we play with xenomorph lifecycle enabled, you'll start as a facehugger, you're weak and fast and need to impregnate someone quickly. After you spawn as a chestburster, you'll need to slither and hide until you grow.
Some useful controls:
“E” is pounce.
Holding “Left-Shift” lets you run on walls while “G” toggles it.
“V” changes your vision mode.

>What should I know playing as a Predator?
One of the character models has a literal codpiece. Apart from having cool toys you have three vision modes, change via “V” or “B” Thermal is good for detecting humans, EM for detecting ayys and Tech for the /k/ enthusiast as well as detecting other predators. If you hold shift and then jump, you can do a super jump that lets you get to a tactical advantage. Don't forget to take the skull of your kills as a trophy.
Some useful controls:
Scroll wheel zooms in/out
Cloak with “C”
Retrieve your disc with “F”
Medical “G”
Energy recharge “T”

>What should I know playing as a Marine/Corporate?
Lube up. Basically run around trying not to get raped while trying to even the odds with dakka. CORPORATES AND MARINES ARE NOT FRIENDS. DO NOT HESITATE TO SHOOT ON SIGHT.
Some useful controls:
“G” activates your lights
“F” drops a flare
“H” is your hacking tool
and “T” is your welding torch.

>WHY IS THE MENU SO SMALL?
That's normal. The game menu is locked to that resolution. In game the resolution is much higher unless you've not set it correctly

>How to screenshot and where do they save?
Hit F8 for screenshots and they save in Documents/My Games/Aliens Vs Predator 2

>How do I vote?
Hit F4 to open up the vote menu or type in chat VVSS (thats not a w, those are 2 Vs) and VV?? to see list of maps and VV# to vote for a specific map.

>Why aren't we playing with xenomorph lifecycle?
As cool as playing the lifecycle is, it leaves xenomorphs at a severe disadvantage and removes the fun from playing that species.

I am having issues connecting!
May need to open the following ports:
TCP: 2300-2400, 7000-10000
UDP: 27888-27900

Reminder that if you are going to play Predator you can only play Codpiece Predator.

And reminder the Predalien is the only good xenomorph for being basically a filthy HAPA

And (((Corporates))) are everyone's greatest ally.

How to fix black vision bug for both Alien and Predator

youtube.com/watch?v=hcUbAwHtMDE

Detailed How to install:

youtube.com/watch?v=ohG_yg0Z_dw

Mod Itself:

avpunknown.com/kingskins/

My guide on how to install:

1. Create a folder in the main directory of AVP2 and name it "Custom"
2. Extract the Rez. mod into that folder
3. Open the custom launcher and click game settings
4. Enter this into the command line parametres: -rez custom/VISIONFIX.rez

Now it should work

Nice.

How do you get homing rockets to lock on?

you right click and your crosshair turns green, then you have to aim at the thing you want to target and wait until the crosshair turns red

2 people on server btw

TO CHANGE NAME, GO INTO PLAYER MENU FROM THE SERVER BROWSER

Official start isn't for another 2-3 hours
But fags are welcome to show up now, particularly if you want to practice harder things like playing as a Predator.

Currently server is on TDM.
We'll also stick to the new hunt config we used late last night as well as rotate between the two configs for survivor. We'll do CTF at some point and try evac with a new special retard config where the xenomorphs have to escape from a human infestation.

>where the xenomorphs have to escape from a human infestation rape squad.

Where are the pics/vids of Hostfag being spanked by his sister I was promised?

well i guess I'm waiting for another gamenight

Have you tried Win98 compatibility mode on the .exe? It helped me with a different issue.

...

PREDATORS HAVE DIFFERENT STATS
Predator being normal, assault being slight bulkier, heavy being slow but armored as fuck and light being fast but weak they all make different noises as well

I assume this applies to humans somewhat as well.

PREDATOR'S RIGHT CLICK HOLD A CHARGE INSTEAD OF HAVING TO KEEP HOLDING DOWN LEFT CLICK

Still missing Dark Star.

why is there so much lag on the server that is unplayable? is it me?

Where are you located? Server is EST.

send help

I'm in South America and the server seems fine to me.


Did you download the version from the OP?

europe, last time i was in the server it didn't have this much lag,this is the host fucking up and clearly needs another ass whooping from his sister

the one from the previous OP that is, aren't they the same?

Check what your ping is but it's more likely to be on your end that the server's.

They're identical, make sure you're running CustomLauncher.exe

it's the host's server since i went into another one and it had low ping just like the others from the server list

I am running that, it worked just fine before then I installed that this mod and now it's fucked

...

Probably hostfag is downloading dolphin porn.


That's odd, it should only change one file that's irrelevant to the server unless its a case where you HAVE to have the same files as server which is retarded
Has someone else who installed that fix been able to connect?


how exactly?

Try uninstalling that black vision mod and see if it works again.

That's unlikely: I'm getting the same latency I got last night from here in bongland. Are you certain it's network related and not a framerate issue (i.e. are you running on a toaster)?

One of the more Holla Forums-inclined fags might have an idea on that.

Could not connect to multiplayer game.

Did you make sure to type IP correctly? Could you connect to any other game? Did you only try win98 mode or did you try other compat modes?

without the vision mod it works just fine, still the vision is niggered then

i aint got no toaster my pc can run everything up to date just fine, it's the server's end

10 people on server so far, still on TDM

Nigger i have connected and reconnected to the game so many times i know the ip by heart now.
And other compat modes have the same issue as either no compat or 98 compat.

Have you both tried this from the bottom of the FAQ:
May need to open the following ports:
TCP: 2300-2400, 7000-10000
UDP: 27888-27900

SERVER RESTARTED TO ALIEN AND MARINE SURVIVOR

Which OS?

win8.1
i'd use 7 but drivers for it don't exist for my hardware

pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Aliens_versus_Predator_2#Windows_8_low_frame_rate_in_fullscreen
This any good? I realise it's not the exact issue you have but it seems to be aimed at Windows 8 specifically so maybe it will help.

Well, if you read the site the mod is on:
Unless you guys have been able to run the fix while playing MP then I don't know.

BACK TO TDM FOR NOW

...

Check if it works now.

That's what I suspected. I don't know if anyone else here got the game to work on it. The server itself didn't work until I tried it on fucking XP.
That's probably the problem. You could see if dxwnd helps: sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/
Other than that
>get windows 7 compatable hardware
>get a cheap windows xp toaster worth it for old games in general tbh

How many players were on at the time?


If that were the problem I doubt he'd be able to connect to the other server he mentioned.


Is there anything you have in common with the guys above? other than the game being 17 years old and running on a shit engine

>That's probably the problem. You could see if dxwnd helps: sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/
This is a good suggestion, I don't think we actually have anyone testing things on Windows past 7 for gamenights maybe something we should look into.
Good point, though it can't hurt.

Can we turn Friendly Fire off this time around?

what was so bad about predators?

I had this same problem last night. Loading the game in windowed mode, disabling v-sync, and running in compatibility mode did nothing. Did you set your server to a static IP forward all necessary ports OP? When I used to host servers as a youngfag I would run into this problem a lot because I didn't understand dynamic IPs and how this game will throw a shit show if the required ports arnt open.


Even if you had a toaster this game should run fine. Min requirements are 64mb of ram and a 300 mhz CPU.

Sure, but it might make Ayys a bit more OP.

Don't suppose fags are having issues have more than one monitor?

It would probably make marines and corps stronger imo. We wouldn't be blowing each other up with rockets and pulse grenades. Only thing is ammo runs out and after a while aliens just swarm in through sheer numbers regardless.

Of course, there's players on now even.
when i was a youngster i gave my friend a lan address

I do? I don't remember being that being an issue in the past, but I can unplug it and see.

PLAYER BANNED FROM SERVER - HACK DETECTED!

The server crashed a few seconds ago. Back up already.

Alright which one of you chucklefucks was it?

Wait what?

WE WARNED YOU BRO
WE WARNED YOU ABOUT THEM CHEATS BRO

It's probably just incorrectly detecting something or other, can have hostfag have a look.

That tends to just be lag. Are you unbanned yet?

Unplayable for me. I spawned as an alien walked for about 3 seconds and my screen froze but I could still swing "I could hear the alien scratching when I clicked". The graphics would work again for just 1 second and freeze then it worked slightly but with everything popping in and out and lagging.

Other people have had this issue, particularly anons with windows 8.1 and up.

Seems to be working now.

Are you running the version of the game from the OP?

That's not how you use quotation marks, user.

Boring uninteresting characters, rehashed setting (forest again).

At least Predator 2 tried something different, Danny Glover was a good main character and the ending is great especially the part where you see a xenomorph skull, linking the two universes together.

Yeah im on windows 8.1 should I be running in compatibility mode?

Yeah im running the one from mega. All im getting now is pic related. It flashes, it goes black then shows the menu and black again.

()

Aaayyyyyys. Aaayyyyyys everywhere.

Praetorians OPS

So is dis fixed yet i was also banned.

Now I cant even join the server, I get this. (pic related) Did the game update? It said it was looking for updates when I enter the server list but would ask if I wanted to install so thought nothing of it. Im using the version in the OP and the custom launcher.

Try unpacking the game again and running the custom launcher, dont accept any updates or installs


Should've been. I'll doublecheck with hostfag

Should be.


At the very least try running it in compatibility for win98 or XP and as admin.

What service pack for XP? There's 3.

SP2 is normally a good bet.

Right: this appears to be an issue with Windows 8 and integrated Intel GPU, do you happen to have one? There are possible solutions from what I can tell.

will leave this here
avpunknown.com/

...

What do you think user?

Feel free to add more to the image.
I only went with FPS AVP games.

Assuming nothing else suggested has worked: try changing the game resolution in the custom launcher's settings to something like 640x480 then go ingame and ensure vync is on and anti-aliasing are off.

You missed Alien Trilogy

...

So I started reading the thread from the top and found your post, I looked into it read all the documentation on it and gave it a try. After making a profile for the exe I launched it and no luck. Also whether the start in windowed mode was selected or not it would appear in full screen. I guess im not going to get to play this game, however on the bright side thanks to DXWnd I can finally play the dark project for the first time, so thanks.

To anyone who wants to know even using dxwnd I had the exact same issue, The graphics would run fine a few seconds then freeze out and loose detail like pic related but the game was still running, I can click and hear my character reacting so no lag, just frozen graphics.

As in Thief 1? Why not just use TFix like everyone else?

GOT IT WORKING PERFECT ON WINDOWS 8.1

:sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/
Thanks to for recommending it.

Youll see many tabs at the top of the window make sure you are on main: See first pic


Next click the compatibility tab
Under fake version Click the box and Select windows 98: See second pic

Now go to the bottom and click okay
The exe will appear in the DXWnd window, run it from there by right clicking and selecting run or double clicking: See final pic

When the game launches make sure you go into settings before actually launching the main game and select windowed mode.

...

DEAD

I feel like a dumbass, I was a bit confused. Do everything I just wrote but dont check the run in windowed mode and deselect windowed mode from the settings the custom launcher gives you then run the main game and full screen works fine.

Yeah now anyone with windows 8.1 can play.

Windows 8 fags look here

This was a worthwhile thread, there are a bunch of games I havent been able to play that now I can thanks to DXWnd

Good shit, glad you got it working. We'll save this method for future old games


Currently in the lull between EU and US hours.

REMINDER PREDATOR CHAD SPECIES

This game is so much fun after this weekend if you still have interest in this game check out all the AVP2 single player content the community made. Next time we should implement UMP2 into the mix as well.

I'd recommend for SP Island of the Dead and the Fear 1 and Fear 2 maps.

Are we still playing right now or am I too late to the party?

If the Holla Forums server is down the SG lifecycle one is pretty active. Just keep in mind you cant swear or they'll ban you.

no, still up. It's at 6 people now.

Well the fix lasted about 5 minutes, with some extra compatibility changes the best I could do was get it to run but not render walls or objects, only the sky instead of just freezing all together. At this point im downloading virtualbox and am just going to install windows 7 on it. It feels retarded but at least ill be able to play.

I meant survivor with preds and mercs. Sorry

So what is it?

CUNT MODE

But what is it?

...

ABSOLUTE LONE MADMAN

Sorry about that lol, I only tested it in single player

Is this another Q3 engine game? I didn't realize how many games used the engine, but they all kind of look the same looking at it in the modern era.

Change modes pls. Aliens vs marines

No it's Lithtech, Monolith's in-house engine. JKA, CoD UO and Star Trek: Elite Force are all idTech3 though.

SURVIVOR ALIEN VS MARINES MODE NOW

It uses its own special version of lilithtech too, which probably explains a bit why the server is so shit.

15 PEOPLE STILL ON AYY VS MARINE SURVIVAL

STUPID EVAC MODE NOW
AYYS MUST ESCAPE FROM HUMAN INFESTATION.

!, THE UKRAINE AND INDIA FAKE FIGHTS WITH EACH OTHER , FOR THE ORANGE HORIZONS ANARCHISTS THAT ARE SO SCARED THEY URINATE THEMSELVES , AND MEXICO IS ANOTER SUN NATION , BUILT TO CRUMBLE , REVELATIONS ARE NO COST INFORMATION , STAY ALERT , BE PEACEFUL VIRTUOUS , NATIONS GET TO CAMP AT " GREECE " , ATHENS , UXIU UXI , BE NICE , TRUST Θε Δελτα-Διφινιτυ AND YES TROUBLE PEOPLE CAN BE KICKED OUT OF NATIONS , THOSE NOT MEANT TO BE THERE , OR AT A MINIMUM THEIR CHART SEALED TO ANOTHER REGULAR OF THE SAFETY , SUCH AS 2 6 10 11 , WHERE THEY LEARN WHAT BEING A VICTIM OF THEIR OWN CONSPIRACIES CAN BE LIKE ,!

Alien/Marine Survival

Why do I keep missing these game nights?

Because you're busy on the weekends? They're always on the same days. Also, this one is dying down but still going.

Is friday night+saturday the new norm

REMINDER THAT REFLECTION THREAD IS UP

I usually go for the whole weekend when I host, but it depends on the game. This one was a pain in the ass to get working, especially server side. I think Sundays are supposed to be "unofficial" days since they're never on the schedule list.

So when is hostfag getting spanked?

seems like most called it in,if there's some life in the serb again i'll get on

Reminder
The social situation in VR chat is what happens when all suffering and consequences are removed from society and people through genetic manipulation and eventual flawless gene therapy that allows people to never die, never hunger and to choose what physical or non-physical form they please on a whim.

VRchat is meme hell. VRchat is what will become of the human race
and everything is fine that way

dis user knows de dey

Are we not playing sunday?

No, not sunday.

Friday + Saturday has always been the norm user, Sunday is extra based on a few factors.

explain it to me>>14153611

Anybody have any plans for next week or no,this one kinda sucked for me.

next weekend is free for anyone to organize anything they want

...

i wouldnt say it sucked but playing endless tdm was shitty

We already played The Ship user.

What a shame. It's not a weekend gamenight if you're not playing on actual last day/first day.

I might host something if I don't see another gamenight thread up. Maybe Ace of Spades again?

I am done with gamenights till I see the pics!
