Re: [hlds] Possible "Quick Connect" button?

2009-04-29 Thread Saint K.
We've released the online tool at
http://www.specialattack.net/spa_tf2_game_menu_generator

Please notice it's still in development and suggestions are welcome. One
of the things we're still going to add is the option to remember your
profile.

Cheers,

P.s. Read the little manual posted with it and everything should work in
a minute

Hi,

We're about to release our online generator for this file. It allows you
to enter the servers you wish to have in your quick connect list and
generate the res file along with it.

In the future we'll also add an option to save your file so you can easy
edit it later on and re-download it.

We'll hopefully be releasing this tomorrow.

Cheers,

Yet still better than the BF2 Play now function, which puts you on empty 
or broken servers, after leaving you on the menu and loading screens for 
10+ minutes.

Sounds just like the quick connect feature in BF2, I didnt like it because
it sent people to an unpopulated server or map that they didnt like. The
matchmaking system is suppose to come soon though.
