What do you think about a GigaMeleeRumble?
The highlighted comment was created in this revision.
Lets take the best 30 or 50 bots of MeleeRumble and put them into a Giga category. The same thing already exists for 1vs1, why not in melee too? :) What do you think about it?
I am all for it. But we need Rednaxela on board to set rules for it. And more people donating CPU cycles.
The rules are the same as meleerumble, except participants list url.
I can contribute battles until it stabilizes.
but we need a server, which will keep track of ranking and a client config. I presume that server part is where we need Rednaxela help.
Sorry Beaming, you got the wrong guy ;-)
Skilgannon runs the current incarnation of the rumble server. (Of course anyone else could run a separate copy if they wanted to, as the code is out there)
(Speaking of which, the rumble server currently requires a client version that isn't downloadable from sourceforge anymore it seems. Maybe it would be a good time to be updating the allowed rumble client versions?)
Ups. Sorry to point wrongly to you.
Indeed, we need Skilgannon, in particularly to upgrade allowed client version. I think quite a few new comers were looking for the old client, but it is not that trivial to find the old version.
I think the old client requirement, is one of the reason why so few contribute to the rumble.
Skilgannon code is free, but now we have client with built in pointer to the official server. It would be nice to just extend the official client.
I had it from the original time. I was too lazy to upgrade, and it turn out to be a right thing.
I know that f4 find it somewhere recently via power of google. But if we really desperate I can attach 1.8.2 somewhere to a wiki page.
Yeah, a server accepted other versions OR a place where 1.8.2 can be downloaded is desperately needed. Then I can start contributing again, and that is the first step to start developing again ;-)
