Hello,

We might be playing NS1 gathers this weekend. Feel free to join.

When?
Saturday or Sunday 18-20 CET.

How?
https://www.ensl.org/gathers/latest/ns1

Steam group:
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/enslgathers

Discord
https://discord.gg/a8dT2cn

Teamspeak 3
server: ensl.org
channel pw: europe

NS1 Server
ENSL #2
ip: ensl.org (62.210.113.95)

How to play:
1. Install Half-Life from Steam, assuming you have it purchased (10-20e)
2. Get NS1 Installer: https://www.ensl.org/data_files/635
* Install it into Half-Life folder even though it says Half-life cannot be found
* Restart Steam
3. Just start game from library and connect to ensl.org

Troubleshooting
If for some magical reason it won't show up in library, start Half-Life with "-game ns" in launch options

Other stuff (OPTIONAL):
1. You can install nL pack if you want less user interface clutter, ambient sounds etc:
http://www.ninelegends.com/releases/9l-ns-pack/
2. Custom totally optional NS1 client 3.2.1a can be downloaded here with some client-side fixes:
https://github.com/Bacsu/NS
* We don't recommend using it as it needs more fixing and 3.2 works just fine.

oh noes can't we postpone this until the next weekend ? ;)

We have 8-15 people signed up, let's see how many show up.

I am not sure if that is trolling or if they think it is NS2 ..

Or are there NS2 ppl that want to try NS1 Gathers?

They joined ENSL.org when NS was alrdy dead ... i am confused and somewhat sceptic about the legitimacy of the hype!

I was way too young to have any affiliation with ensl at the time, but that doesn't stop someone from playing a game.
Have some more faith in the community =]

Much faster download ^^

Good games

30 ppl in teamspeak... that was quite a lot :)

didn't know this was happening :(

hopefully people want to do it again some time

Fun games. @jiriki here's ns_ragnarock_b1 if you want to put it up on your server to mess around on https://ufile.io/v4w8z

Thanks for the games guys, can we do this on some other day?

Can you post here any issues you had with the client.

Can you post here any issues you had with the client.

I didn't play the gather but i tried that client a while ago and iirc there were issues with the popup menu like the player view would move while you moved the cursor. with the linux patch at least at a certain point the fps dependent timings were a bit off from the previous version since there was some change in how the fps cap worked or how it was reported. not sure if that still is an issue though.

It'd be nice to have physics set to to 125fps values and run the game at a higher fps, but that'd probably be a lot of work and testing for a dead game.

If you have a bug with the rebuild client (v3.2.1.a) you can report this at https://github.com/Bacsu/NS/issues
Please post as much info as possible with operating system and how to reproduce this.

Example:

[Linux] I lost my aim.

Well I guess we have a discord now aswell.

im ready to play if anybody is down. also i would like to know why the people that are playing only enjoy 6v6.

I was told by one guy that it creates balance issues when there is more than that, but i fondly remember 32 player servers full, being a lot of fun.

i got my ns1 install from bryns, its still up with files... amazingly.

Anyway, anyone remember how to do custom crosshairs, transparent comm menus or get rid of the ambient sounds? (or make them less loud?)

Nvm I remembered that UWE forums still has like, a whole NS1 section right there. :D

Guys if you play in the gathers and think something could be improved, say so!
