Sorting out some thing & whats going on with GTR ??

admin — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 15:50:51 +0000

In consequence of the more and more inactivity of the Quake 4 szene since many weeks, I reduced my equipment for this community now of a minimum. That means in facts I cancelled my 6 Quake 4 servers and let only one active. Also I cancelled my dedicated server were ran the TS3 Server and all of my pickup bots and some other stuff to save my money, time and trouble. But just for you and my loyality to Quake 4 I decided spontaneous to order a new and only one pickup bot only active in channel #spontanq4ctf because It might very well be possible that the game becomes his activity back and people wanna play pickup games again.

The GTR mod was a public fail release hense it couldnt save the Q4 activitiy. It had to much bugs and it came never any more releases or bugfix releases. The dev team lapsed into silence and came never any statement after release. Its a real pity and nice try, we thank you dev team.

Because of this badly GTR story we roll back playing games with q4max mod again.

Spontan in preparation for Upcoming GT-R MOD

admin — Sun, 24 Apr 2011 14:51:58 +0000

We heard from the developer that It won’t be long until release of GTR.
Official release date is set to 06.05.2011
The GTR Mod got already an own internet adress
http://www.gametype-revolution.com and will be reachable in the next days.

A while ago we refresh some of our stuff on our website.
This contains mainly the new filebase with better structure so that you can find the stuff you need way better.
There you will find the MOD itself of course, some GTR related selfmade maps , all CTF maps for our current pickup games and many other stuff, check it out and browse through the directory.

With the new RA4 support of GTR, we also host all Ra4 maps. The imortant maps are gothra4map1, stormra4map1 and ra3map1_q4_port which you will find on our GTR Server which we are set it up for. Server IPs are not availble yet until end of private beta phase. But all maps are available by now so you can download it.

Secondary changes here is we have reactivated our forum where you can discuss of different threads
like MODs, Maps, Pickups etc. We hope you will make this section active.

Last but not least, we opened another spontan channel called #spontangtr where you can play (!add up) for all GTR games like TDM, Duel etc but NOT CTF!
Capture The Flag games stay beyond in our retro channel #spontanq4ctf there we will switch the mod to gtr.

If you want more infos about GTR, we have our own GTR FAQ section so feel free to use that.

An official GTR WiKi and the GTR page itself will be coming soon, be patient.

Gameserver changes and donations

lici — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 17:56:46 +0000

Hi everybody,

at first we would like to let you know that our old server went offline last weekend. We decided to order a new one as soon as possible. We are proud to announce the arrival of our new quake 4 private server for pickups (IP 195.82.158.89:27950).
It’s a 12 slot server which is located in Central Germany. This means its lag free and has lowest ping (for most of our European members).

Donations

Spontangames is a community that stands for friendship, fun and teamplay.

To make this happen we have a website, linuxshell (vserver) for pickup bots, teamspeak 3 and gameservers. All this costs money.

We don’t expect people to donate… but if you want to support us or have some cash left, we could really need it to keep this community alive.
We are thinking for instance to rent a second server and this time perhaps located in Netherlands.
You can find the donate button below, you may pay 5 Euro (its a minimum) but no matter of amount. For all the people who are willing to donate, we really appreciate it.
