Yeah I thought that would have been included but nope, hence I had to overwrite the orginal.
Oh well, at least the serious sam track sounds better than boring dethtoll

Beta support for Steam Workshop map uploading is now out.

Now is the time to upload your maps, preferably not ones that need DP! and crap, as maps that only run in a vanilla install will work correctly.

I will put a detailed tutorial on how to publish maps to Workshop later. Right now just a quick note on how to do that.

Let's say you have a map "myhouse.map" and you want to publish it to Workshop. First open bin/cmdtool folder. Create new folder there called "myhouse". Copy the map, readme.txt file and also png preview image to that folder. Rename image to "myhouse.png". Create a file "myhouse.json", open it in text editor and put this text:

http://pastebin.com/af7biG4d

Remove categories that not apply to your map. Run this command in terminal: "cmdtool publish myhouse" and wait couple of minutes. Done.

I have already uploaded my COOP map so this should give an example of how a published map will look.

Too bad all my maps so far are either crap or use TROR.

[TerminX]

You could always publish it on there anyway and write in the notes that it requires EDuke32. Maybe we could scan the workshop related directories and present a menu of stuff found there within EDuke32.

[Juras]

Maybe some day we will have EDuke32 client/server netcode finally finished,maybe or maybe not?

[Hendricks266]

Maybe we can when TX gets his life in order. Or, you know, when users quit being passive-aggressive about it.

[Juras]

Maybe you shouldnt answer on "passive-agressive"(huh?) question when it's not send for you. In other words what's eduke netcode status for now, TX?
Edit. forgot it's megaton thread my bad, good work with workshop termit i like how its done

[Jimmy]

Yes, because smart-talking moderators and EDuke32 developers makes you look like a friendly guy.

Sorry, but it looks for me he made a simply question.

[TerminX]

Let's not get too far off topic here. Client/server multiplayer will be finished at some point, but for now you have the sync-based multiplayer in Megaton, which looks to be better than other sync-based implementations have been so far.

[Skulldog]

Time to kick some ass? join?


Lobby now closed.

Haha, yeah right.

EDIT: Seriously, downvotes? Out of the thousands of online games I've played trying every combination of source ports, launchers, VPNs, connection types, etc. I think I know what has worked well for online Duke in the past and what is still the best solution. You two have either never played an online Duke game in your life or have played only a fraction compared to me. Get off your horse.

Try explaining to some 15 year old kid how to download some client launcher then and how to open the ports on their router then.

I don't know about you, but I knew how to port forward when I was 15.

We are the exception.

[Radar]

I agree, setting up the clients and source ports can be difficult. (Not to mention, saying the wrong thing to the online guys can make them shun you). But when it comes to the actual netcode, this Megaton stuff is still a bad joke.

[Micky C]

Yeah it still doesn't work for me.

Nothing ever works for you, works fine for me even to a person in Ireland.

[Player Lin]

I only tried one time of DM with other random player and it works very good(except some small lag problems), but only that once, because every time I started my Megaton, the lobby list always shows the "gray text" -- No games found...I just can't try and test the MP again...

[The Commander]

Either get invited or invite someone to your game via Steam.

That's the problem...I don't have any friend has this game, and I know someone may want but...well, I guess I prefer "click lobby and finding a game on there" style.

Silly, I know.

Workshop is weird and buggy.

2 days ago I tried uploading my shitty map and it didn't work. The next day it instantly worked.

Also I saw a "Castle Dukenstien" map that was blatantly ripped from Fox's Duke64 mod with credit taken (i.e. "I changed it all to duke items"). It was suddenly removed.

Some guy on the forum is already planning to flood the workshop with old maps from the shovelware CDs.

[The Commander]

Termit said he would remove maps that are stolen etc. or requested by the original author.
I suspect if the person kept doing this they can be stopped all together from uploading more content to the workshop.

And that, kids, is why Workshop for old games is a bad idea. Do you really want to go through thousands of F-quality levels from archive dumps because some asshole wanted his 5 minutes of internet glory? No.
