here it is, the long awaited dundalk lan 3.

it'll be a 11 hour lan from 12pm sunday 25th of january in the fairways hotel. we only have 22 places available for the event so get in quick!!

the cost is just €5 per person and of course it is a byoc event.

i will have a 10/100mb 24 port switch for the day and should also have a 16port back up just in case after what happened @ dundalk 1, if anyone has a projector and is will to bring it please let me know.


games:

counterstrike 1.6 offline version 6
generals zero hour
age of mythology - titans v1.01
halo(make sure it has the most recent update)
unreal tournament
quake3 - pointrelease v1.32

halo, quake iii and unreal tournament will be played at the same time.
zero hour and aom will be played at the same time also.
note: need to confirm version for unreal
as it gets closer to the event teams will be assigned for all games. cs will be played using clan match rules, 4 pseudo clans will be created for the day. halo will be capture the flag, map to be agreed. maps & where appropiate teams for the other games also need to be arranged but i will let you know soon.

please have all games you intend to play installed & working on your machine before the event if possible. you can email me to arrange getting 1.6 offline exe.


the sessions
first: counterstrike 1.6(approx 2 hours)
second: zero hour & aom(approx 5 hours)
third: halo, unreal 2k3 & quake iii(approx 3.5 hours)


now i don't mean to whine but i am going to be very strict about this because nothing got to me more the last day than this, i want all atendees to stick to the sessions, while everyone is playing cs i don't won't a tiny group off playing another type of game simply because they don't like the game. if there is another game propose it to be before the event and i see what the demand is like for it. the whole point of going to a large lan is to play together.

requirements:

a decent pc of course using either windows 2k or xp.
network cable of decent length, like this is a big room so a good few meters.(cat 5 or better).
power entension leed.
headphones(no speakers!)
money for food and drink.

if you need anymore information please don't hesitate to contact me @ tyax @ tyax_cs : at : vodafone : dot : ie or pack3t3rror @ pack3t3rror : at : hotmail : dot : com

- i ask that everyone who signs up indicate if they are definate or not and that they ensure their systems are viri free and that thier hardware is in working order. also please indicate which games you intend to play. set up should take 30 minutes tops!! you will be emailed your ip address when you sign up.

- i want to try and make this into a regular event, bi-monthly or something so if successful i will try and make this arrangement a permanent one with the hotel.

we have now got sponsorship from the dkit which means these lans will now become a regular event here in dundalk, probably monthly. unfortunately there will still be a fee, €5 for this event(which lets be honest is very cheap). all proceeds will go towards purchasing a society owned dedicated server and since the switch belongs to me after that a society owned switch aswell. this equipment will mean that next college year the society will be able to have another series of events after i've left.

I wanted to have unlimited super weapons to minimise the length of the game but David has me head wrecked about it. Also he wants to all all general types in the game. What do the rest of the zero hour players think??

Somebody may have had a dream about me having doubts about going, but lets not get confused about that dream world and reality (in which I never had any doubts)

What's the deal with the IP's? I seem to have misplaced mine somewhere.

All General types sounds good... personally I'm not the biggest fan of unlimited SW but I don't mind playing with it on... all the more buildings for me to destroy... mah haha

They are been emailed out but I will also post it up as a comment here as some peoples mailboxes are full. After Dundalk LAN 1 we have decided that static IP's is the only way to go. All Generals Are now allowed for Zero Hour so those who are unfamiliar get familar ASAP, as for super weapons I am still undecided, 5.5 hours aint that long in an RTS game as we all know too well and with 8 players armys could get too big as remember we don't have a dedicated server for Zero Hour and the last thing we want is a crash after 4 hours or so.

Hotel for some reason has us down for 12pm - 11pm and since all managers leave the hotel by then there is nothing I can do, sincere apologies but its still 11 hours. Since we are getting such a good deal I didn't want to force the issue of anything. Also there is the possibility that I will not be there, if this is the case Pack3t3rroR will deal with all your queries.
