Ballistics Test

Post by zangoo »

Due to server issues the test date is going to be moved to this sunday at 12pm UTC/GMT -6.

Sorry if this has caused any issues.


I am setting up a large scale test for the ballistics on a 32 person server this Friday at about 3pm My time UTC/GMT -6 hours.

THE MAP
The map will be kashan 16. For the test files, Just pm me and I will send you the links needed to download the files and answer any questions you have about this testing this.

INSTALLING
I have created a installer so you just install it like any other program.

UN INSTALLING
To uninstall I have another installer that installs the backup files so you can play normal project reality again.

WHAT WE ARE TESTING
We are going to be testing The all or nothing tracer load out + the ballistics and how they effect the current infantry and light vehicle gameplay. Dicking around will not be tolerated and anyone doing so will be kicked from the test.

REQUIREMENTS
People testing need xfire so communication can happen fast. Thank Markonymous for organizing things so we can use his clan server. (i really should read posts better)

Just checking our forums, you have 10 (possibly 12) EEF guys who have said yes to help you test. We were told 19:00 GMT (20:00 BST?) is that correct?

It would if people wouldn't be too lazy to check out the link I posted.


OK everyone.

The test is scheduled to begin at 9pm (that's 21:00) GMT.


The relation between your timezone and the GMT can be figured out using this site

Im all for this. I was there on the small scale test and i can say that it makes sniping very interesting and with some tweaks, machine guns will be working very nicely as well. :)

Come on people, it's not that hard to understand.

It doesn't make it 23:00 GMT. The GMT is not influenced by anything like day saving time and stuff alike, it always stays the same.


The only thing you need to find out is the difference between your timezone and the GMT (using this site - focus on the middle of the page, on the part where it says "Your Local Timezone = GMT").

Then you take this template:

Your Time Zone = GMT +(-) The Difference


In your case Netherlands is in the CET (Central European Time) zone, which changes to CEST (Central European Summer Time) during the summer and that has +2 hours difference from GMT.


CET = GMT + 2
CET = 21 + 2
CET = 23
