Empires 2.24d Server Hotfix (Linux)
May 22, 2009 Patch 0 commentsThis is the Empires 2.24d Linux server hotfix. It is released separately due to technical issues.
Empires is a mod for Half-Life 2 which will combine the genres of real-time strategy and first person shooter. Each team has four classes to choose from (scout, rifleman, grenadier, and engineer) with unique weapons and skills each. One player will become the commander by entering the team's command vehicle to build the team's base and lead his team to victory. Once your base is built up, purchase vehicles from your team's vehicle factory to open up another facet of Empires' gameplay. Vehicles can be customized with unique weapons, armor, and engines. The commander can research improvements to all aspects of vehicles such as longer range cannons, homing missiles, and armor-piercing machine gun rounds. Once your team is prepared, lead an assault into the enemy base. The enemy team is defeated when all players are wiped out with either no place to respawn or no reinforcements remaining or the team's command vehicle is destroyed.

Empires v2.24d has been released. Small yet very important, 2.24d should be cross-compatible with unpatched 2.24 installations.
Fixes:
+ Lots of potential crashes
+ Squad ability cooldown removed
+ Rifleman sticky grenade damage against turrets increased
+ SMG2 slightly rebalanced
+ (from 2.24c) the chat background visibility can be toggled with cl_chatbackdrop

This server installer is a zip file that contains all files required to run an Empires v2.24 server. It does not allow you to run the client.

I heard all the devs quit, you guys are dicks.
What you talking bout boy, we got like 5 coders, 3 modelers and a few concept artists hard at work to make Empires even more fun
Empires is under VERY active development, and who are you referring to when you stat "you guys are dicks"
I had my suspicions. How lame.
A "dick" if you will, is a type of porpoise male genitalia.
This crashes for me. It only gets to where it says loading when I first launch it. I have all sdk/sdk bases installed. I have all of the ep1 engine games and the orange box engine games and have run all of them before. I can play lots of other mods without crashing so why does this crash?
Sounds like you only installed the patch. Have you downloaded the full client from there : Pwc-gaming.com(~850 MB)?
Can i play when i have only Hl 2 Episode I ?
Yes, you only need to download Source SDK - Orange Box (it is in your tools tab) first.
I totally agree with you there.

Exactly =) When you understand it, you will love it.No doubt =)
