ASE Filter editing

[Noobie]

I made a little addition to ASE: filtering ETPro versions. Here are the instructions:

1) Open up the all seeing eye installation folder (default: C:\Program Files\The All-Seeing Eye)
2) Copy the filters.txt file to a filters.bak file (as a backup) and open the filters.txt file with notepad
3) Look for a section called Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\Version\Other
4) Under the

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\Version\Other
Group: ETVER
Mutex: ETVER
Flags: OTHER

part put the following:

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\ETpro Version
Group: NUL

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\ETpro Version\3.1.14
Group: ETVER
Mutex: ETVER
1 if mod_version != "3.1.14" remove

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\ETpro Version\3.1.9
Group: ETVER
Mutex: ETVER
1 if mod_version != "3.1.9" remove

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory\ETpro Version\3.1.0
Group: ETVER
Mutex: ETVER
1 if mod_version != "3.1.0" remove

5) Close and save filters.txt
6) Restart ASE

You can do that by creating new filters using the appropriate menu options. Perhaps not as nice, but doesn't involve editing a file (which ASE may overwrite when it updates).

What would be really nice would be a way to include some of the b_ cvars in the serverinfo so filters for b_wolfrof etc. could be made (as has been suggested in another thread).

If bani makes a bitmask or something that is returned in the serverinfo with various info on b_cvars that can be done.

Ahhhh!
You should've posted that earlier :P
Wanted to have smth like that and did it myself yesterday :\

I got full version of ASE, but ever since "they" took it over, it hasn't been the same. Can't even search for players presently playing

[=FF=im2good4u]

i go the free ASE and it workes fine i only got a stoopid "they" icon

Try splatterladder instead.

URL dosnt work, but yah...my only problem is the fact that i already paid for it and it dosn't work..not to mention I'm not sure what splatter ladder works on and how reliable/accurate it is

I've asked for a bitflag var holding hte important etpro settings before, would be worthwhile imo.

Here's another example of an ASE filter - just a normal one though (just right-click in space in the filter window and select 'new':

1 if ping > "60" remove
2 if protocol < "84" remove
3 if clients < "10" remove
4 if g_needpass == "1" remove
5 if gamename ~!= "*etpro*" remove
6 if g_balancedteams != "1" remove
7 if sv_punkbuster != "1" remove
8 if g_friendlyFire != "1" remove
9 if sv_maxRate < "13000" remove


nice tip on editing in the 'proper' filters bit though.

URL dosnt work

Whats wrong with the URL? Works for me.
I guess this is you?
And this is your clan? (its already registered!)

someone come up with a bitmask of flags you want to filter on.

that way when someone (and they will) whines about how it sucks, I don't have to take the blame for it. i can just direct all complaints at Kendle

Okay, let's do it!

We need info on the following cvars:
b_defaultskills
b_noskillupgrades
b_levels_battlesense
b_levels_covertops
b_levels_engineer
b_levels_fieldops
b_levels_lightweapons
b_levels_medic
b_levels_soldier
b_wolfrof
b_pronedelay
b_xpstopwatch
team_maxFlamers
team_maxMG42s
team_maxMines
team_maxMortars
team_maxPanzers

I recommend we do it in that order (I have not yet tought as to why to use this order). Now the problem is that some take variable input (like b_levels_* for instance); so I recommend we just negate what they are set to (filtering on that sux anyway) and just do a 0/1 if they are set or not.


I was told on IRC that there is no more room left in the output of the server (when queried) for much of anything (in case anyone is wondering why the b_* cvar's aren't just added).

I dont think it's necessary to be able to filter everything exactly, nice maybe, but I think all that's needed is to be able to filter out setups which are well out of what's wanted.

It'd be useful if people posted what they're particularily interested in, and how exacting they'd like it.

For example, I'd particularily like to
- filter out wolfrof 1
- filter out realhead 0
- filter out servers with very high numbers/ratios of heavyweapons allowed.

Nice but not essential:
- gain some kind of impression (from glancing in serverinfo) as to wether skills upgrades are disabled or wether the skills system is tweaked.
- filter out, or know if b_fixedphysics 0

I think it'd be acceptable if taking full advantage of the filtering required a bit of work - or someone makes a webpage to create filters based on input.

I'll work on some possible examples, roughly how many serverinfo vars are going spare - allowing for the usual server added ones like sets .Admin "admin@email.com" etc?

Well that is the problem. I was told that there is no spare space left. Because the serverinfo also outputs a maximum of 64 player names, along with all the stuff already used, it's too much.
