What if i'm a mod already and looking for mods/transfers? I got a bunch that I can't check much due to a ton of personal stuff going on so I wouldn't mind getting em in better hands, at least when they aren't literally empty.

    Hi all. Technical difficulties and a lot of irl stuff means I can't mod as much as I'd like nowadays, and since I'm the only one here that means it's not maintained.

    If anyone's interested in being a mod then just lemme know and I can grant that; if anyone wants to take over the community then even better. Note that you'd preferably want some experience and willingness to moderate.

     

    My time's gotten way more limited than i'd like to the point of stepping away from a lot so I'm looking to transfer some communities. If anyone's interested then lemme know and I can get that going. I know dataisbeautiful's more active and could use it but I'm offloading any that could be used.

    A bunch don't even have posts so I'm half tempted to just wipe those but I want some input to see if thats a good idea first.

     

    After consideration and some prompting. I was advised to consolidate the community over to https://lemmy.world/c/FirefoxCSS@fedia.io

    So as of today, this community will be locked and it's advised to continue activities over on the new community. I'm also stepping down as moderator due to real life obligations that I have to deal with.

     

    Real life issues mean I can’t mod as much as I used to unfortunately, I’m looking to transfer ownership to a few pages. If anyone knows the steps or is willing to get things going then message me and lemme know.

    I got Half Life that could use some moderation, alongside Lost Media, MAME, and a few others. Most are on my profile and I'm not sure the procedure for doing this with a bunch of pages but if I need to send more I can do that. I also have more on another instance like VoidBunnies though I'm still not fully sure how to deal with cross instance communities like that.

    EDIT: Full list below if you want the entire thing though some are more active than others.

    So not sure the process on transferring communities across Lemmy but since some unforseen issues mean I can't mod as much, I'm looking to transfer ownership. If anyone knows the steps or is willing to get things going then message me and lemme know.

    I'm also willing to do that with all the ones I got but UpliftingNews is the biggest one and I don't know how many I can send at once.

     

    Hi all, I’m currently the only mod here and I’ve sadly had to be less active given sizable real life responsibilities. So posting here to see if anyone is up for assisting in mod management? It's pretty small and not the most active, so it might not be necessary, but all the same having the post up for future approvals is a good idea I feel.

    If anyone’s interested just comment below and I can get things approved from there, Preferably say any experience you have if applicable.

     

    I recall one map where you were surrounded by enemies, but they were all fake enemies and your objective was slaying an archvile who would continually resummon them. I don't remember if it was a mod or if it was a map, I recall it being in a pack of maps with a good few weird challenges like that, but I can't remember for the life of me.

     

    A good long while back i decided to compile a few mods I found into a single 7z archive, just to make it easier for others to find, some of these support bots, others don’t but could still be fun in a LAN session. This includes mods like CPMA, Eternal Arena, ExcessivePlus, Q3Pong and more. Some of these were incredibly hard to find, tried to find the latest version of each of these but that wasn’t always simple. Just extract these into your main Quake III folder, select via the mod menu, or optionally make a shortcut, and your good to go.

    Quick tip: If it pops up asking for a CDKey, go into your main Baseq3 folder and look for Q3Key, then paste that into the mod folder, it’ll stop asking for it, assuming putting your key into the cdkey menu doesn't work, note that only some of them do that, shouldn’t cause any weird errors but always good to be cautious.

    I also recall going in to scrub any keys from the folders but if I missed any then lemme know and I can go in and fix that.

    The Source port I use is QuakeIIIe (The Edawn one), but some of them like Eternal Arena and Painkeep work better with ioquake, so best run those with that, same with Defrag which runs best with iodfequake, at least when I tried these before, they might work better, in my experience anyway.

    Quick note that with some of these it defaults your character model to either Grunt or Sarge in a Team based gametype like CTF, if it does the former then it fixes upon death, if it’s Sarge then it’s stuck like that. Best I can tell that just seems to be how the mods are and searches didn’t find any fix.

    But yeah hope this proves to be helpful, if you have any mod suggestions then feel free to let me know and I’ll look out for them.
