... just got a little easier.

Download the attached file, and place it in your team fortress 2/tf/ressource folder.

You will now have quick buttons in your main menu that will connect you to the spa servers. If you have bought reserved slots, the new menu will automatically connect you through it, without the need for the console :)

AWESOME, thanks!
It saves me from the copypasta to get to my reserved slot.

May you add a playercount and mapname directly to those links in the menu too?

Unfortunately not. The file is run clientside, which means we cannot update it!

Very cool 8)

The lack of map/player display is a bit meh but that makes you join a server without knowing what you can expect^^

Which isnt necessarily a bad thing.

Thanks, even without displaying player numbers etc it's still quicker and less clumsy than pasting into console.

By the way - since I have the installation scripts from the old mappacks which are really easy to modify to point to another directory (but were quite hard to set up initially with all the Steam path checking and what not =) I could compile an installer for that - I know that it's overkill to do this for one file but then you wouldn't have to explain to people where to put the file and they'd be able to simply double-click a small program to add the SpA Menu. I could even include an uninstall routine if somebody wanted to remove the modification.

What'cha think? Worth the trouble? Like I said it's easy to do now but I didn't want to post the installer yet lest it would be received like my advice for Shizz' spraypaint tutorial. ;-)

Hi,

This would be a possibility. We do have a program planned for the future to update custom content.

buy it with your spa points and if you don't have enough, just donate some money and get a lot of spa points that way! :mrgreen:

Post subject:  Re: Connecting to the spa servers....

I'm having issues with all SpA bball servers (1,2 and 3 ofc), seems they aren't updated, coz i'm still having an error about consistency 'particles/water_dx80.pcf' (sv_pure is 1 or 2 - and that's right, seems server just hasn't updated yet). I have verifyed two times content from client side and nothing :cry: I hope this will help

Post subject:  Re: Connecting to the spa servers....

Hi,

VALVe pushed out another update without notification to the server ops(right after the initial update). apperantly they missed 1 water particle file in the initial release. I've updated the servers now once more, give it another try.

Post subject:  Re: Connecting to the spa servers....

Thanks for the input, but i have issues going :[ Seems that my client files are corrupted =) i checked them two times in a row with built-in 'Verify cache' feature but nothing.. That's first update that partially ruined a game for me :D
