Tracks on Bier-Buden Server

[Hubschrauber]

Hey Guys!

Yesterday Oelfuss updated our servers to Beta9.
As we haven't played KRP for a few month now maybe the tracks may be outdated in the versions...
It would be nice if we would get some proposals wich tracks are missing and wich are maybe outdated.
There is a screenshot attached wich tracks are actualy on the server. The file- & folderdates aren't really correct because of some copy & paste actions.
Our plan is to offer a small sync-script wich downloads and install all the tracks we are using on this server automaticly. But it wouldn't make much sense if our own server is outdated
That way it would much easier for new people to join the server.

Proposals are very welcome
See you in the next days on track riding KRP-B9 ;-)

Cheers,
Marian

hey hubschrauber.
there are no updates on the tracks you use but you should add some newer tracks like genk, es course, lidköping ,pfi and much more. i cant see anyone of the tracks that are actually driven often on the servers.

It's not a big deal to put new/additional tracks on the server. We just didn't want to "release" old versions ;-)
So if we are already up2date with the versions we can make the script available to public :-)
If we wouldn't be up2date on the serverside the script would have started  to overwrite newer versions on the clientside with the older ones from the serverside.

By now it's just a sync-script based on rsync to keep your tracks-folder synced with the one on the gameserver. If you have additional tracks installed this shouldn't be a problem, nothing should be deleted. Also it's not a problem if you have the tracks already installed, rsync should notice it and just skip the download.
We can extend the script easily for karts etc., but for now we will just start with the tracks-folder. Propably we will add the language-files in the next version, but i have to check the files first.

The first run can take some time as there are already 2GB of tracks. Every further execution of the script should just check if there are new tracks, so it's much faster.


I will post the install-instructions in english and german, but they are also included in the .zip.
Direct Link to the script: http://www.weissbierbude.de/images/test/!krpsync.zip

English:
-------
Installation
------------
Copy the folder '!krpsync' into your KartRacingPro installation.
The folder '!krpsync' has to be copied in its entirety.

Folder structure:
  - <KartRacingPro>
  |--+ !krpsync
  |--+ docs
  |--+ plugins
  |--+ tracks
  |--+ <more>

Execute
-------
Change to the folder '!krpsync' and execute the file 'krpsync.cmd'
(double-click). The program synchronize the folder 'tracks'
with the KartRacingPro servers of the Bier-Buden.
Only modified and new files are transfered!

The program can be stop with Ctrl+C. Already transfered files
remain on your disk.


German:

Installation
------------
Ordner '!krpsync' in die KartRacingPro Installation entpacken.
Dabei muss das Verzeichnis '!krpsync' bestehen bleiben.

Verzeichnisstruktur:
  - <KartRacingPro>
  |--+ !krpsync
  |--+ docs
  |--+ plugins
  |--+ tracks
  |--+ <weitere>

Ausführen
---------
In den '!krpsync' Ordner wechseln und die Datei 'krpsync.cmd'
ausführen (Doppelklick). Dies synchronisiert das Verzeichnis
'tracks' mit dem KartRacingPro Server der Bier-Buden.
Nur veränderte und neue Dateien werden übertragen.

Das Programm kann mit Strg+C abgebrochen werden. Bereits übertragene
Dateien bleiben dabei erhalten.

--------------------------

And again the direct Link to the File: http://www.weissbierbude.de/images/test/!krpsync.zip

As mentioned before, we can extend it to the karts etc., but for the first "public test" the tracks are enough
If you have any problems with this please post in this thread, so we can get an email-notification and reply much faster.

Cheers,
Marian
