COH: Europe In Ruins

My offer Design, Coding, MySQL, PHP

The crisis of eirr IS NOT a launcher crisis - its an INGAME DESIGN crisis.

Maybe you guys are open for change, short before the downfall.

@Tank: i am not going to fuck arround you either want a redesign of gameplay and shit to get done  or not - no stupid application games.

I assume you're referring to coh1's eir2? I'm ok with this aswell, but if we look to the future I think eir2 should be made for coh2. I hope we don't get another judgement from Xeoniz. I hope he decides to take the lead.
I'd be interested to offer my help aswell, I just don't know how much I can offer right now, but a lot more in the future for sure. It could also be a good way to learn more by helping this mod.

Currently I'm studying in school basic courses of  C-programming, web-programming-tecniques (HTML & CSS, Javascript, PHP & MySQL) , Basics of Object-oriented programming (Java-programming + its graphical applications)
I've had basic course of network fundamentals (though with bad understanding :D) and basics of server-enviroments (MS Server 2012 with ok/good understanding). In the future I'll be having courses like C++ and many more.
Coding ain't really my passion, but thoughts of ability to be part of mod making or join game companies in the future gives me at least some interest in the matter. Graphical design is closer to my heart, although my school supports more coding and other subjects than visualized subjects. I'd be interested in mapping, video editing (this one is less important for the mod ofc, except the trailer) & modelling (haven't done models for coh before, but would be very interested to learn).

But it is a launcher crisis ick.
if you want to change anything other then rgds its gor to be coded into the launcher and there in lies the problem.

as stated countless times the launcher is a dinosaur and has seen numerous domino effect bugs from even the slightest changes.

All in all tho good to see someone willing to perpetuate the mods life.

I really appreciate your offer and I will certainly take you up on it if we can find someone to code the launcher and Scar. With out that ability, we will be unable to create CoH2.

To be honest ick, I already handle the SQL & a little of the PHP.

Our current game play sucks because of balance. A lot of that balance has to do with Doctrines. We can't even change how doctrines are handled without changing the launcher.

Meh, It would take a fucking wall of text to explain why just having Coding, MySQL, & PHP experience to create, and/or fix this mod is not what we need. I CBA to explain for the 100th time.

is there anyway we can just go to a web based version like OMG mod or something?

I dont know if any of the web launcher back-end is still there. To be honest, what we have works and it would be easy to keep that afloat, but with no one playing eir 1 and no developer being able to do launcher end coding we would just be further postponing the inevitable and not be able to do anything for coh2

Theres a reason no one is playing EIR 1, we were given information that lead us to beleive a patch was imminent only to be told its all been shit canned.

+1

1. Collect incentive points
2. If you reached your max incentive capacity :
3. Make a patch
4. Upload a patch
5. Tell people there's a patch update.
6. People be like : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzvlPrOnIz4
7. Fuck OMG (until they upload a patch XD)
8. EiR's back alive.
9. Profit (?)

I know we cant agree on that, but:

- give allies cool stuff: like Tulip, easy eight etc.

-change AVRE/Brummbär, RRs and smoke nades, Flame HT and Croc (for example: OMG has the same RR issue like RR)

and EIRR is playable again. People would come back.

@Aero: The current EIRR Reportsystem NEEDS the launcher to report the gameevents. EIRR Launcher send data while playing, but Webbased launcher, would mean that after a game the data is collected and then send - this "could" cause lags.

Anyway, regardless of the mods future potential, I would say its only fair we let the existing community try to keep it afloat for as long as they can. But mind you that this also means you will need to find the money to keep the servers running.

This would make me, come back.


I feel like we could find cheaper server, but I'm not sure. For example we could resign from Ventrilo for Teamspeak3 :)

The server and Vent are not the same thing.

Vent has been paid for a 2 year subscription so it's there until that runs out. I paid the new subscription a few months ago.

The server is a monthly payment that debits my credit card. In order for donations to be directed to that purpose, they would need to be accessible by me ( or someone else we choose ). You must have a credit card to pay for the server.
Currently donations are only accessible by Eirrmod and he does not have a credit card. I do not know how to change the paypal account on the website either.

Currently donations go to Eirrmod and he has no way to redirect them.


But this is all moot unless people are actually playing the game.

tbh i will play if we can get a patch out. i know there probably a few people who would play if patches came out or something. a patch is exciting and new and breaths fresh air into this old bag.

ick and xeo for new devs :D

I can't wait to come back ....  ;) , and why don't u lunch the new forum u created so u can make new paypal so all the donations go to mod instead of eirmod.

HONESTLY, Because it is called EiR2 and I can't be bothered to change it without a Scar coder to actually make a mod.
