Announcement: New EventScripts 2.0 bug fix release
Posted: Mattie @ 2008-08-13, 9:42 pm
We've just released a new version of EventScripts 2.0. It's highly recommended that those using ES2 for Counter-Strike (and pre-Orange Box games) upgrade to this build.
UPDATE: This build is highly recommended to resolve an exploit that's making the rounds. Please upgrade right away.
Just wanted to say "Wow!" and thanks publicly to SuperDave:
As you can see, as of today, he has responded/posted more on the forums than anyone else. He's ousted me from the top spot.
I just wanted to offer thanks for all of the great responses and help he's given in the forums. ~6800 posts is no small feat in such a short time. (Some forums never get 1000 posts period!)
I'm lucky to have an awesome crew of moderators and to have such a helpful community to work with. We have had ~214,000 posts since this forum started over three years ago. Great work, guys, and keep that helpful spirit alive!
If we get enough entries, there'll be gift certificates involved. Let's see some more entries. There are some good ones already, but we need more cool topics.
This is very important for growing the community, so I highly encourage you to give it a shot.
Announcement: EventScripts for OrangeBox Linux Released
Posted: Mattie @ 2008-07-04, 4:01 pm
I'm opening the Orange Box public beta for Linux to the general public. The build may not be as bug-free as traditional public betas, but some people have been quite desperate since DOD:S started its move to Orange Box.
Announcement: Contest: Make an Eventscripts screencast
Posted: Mattie @ 2008-07-02, 7:39 pm
To prepare for the launch of EventScripts 2.0, I'm holding a contest to find a group of HOWTO screencasts.
Contest Guidelines:
Create an EventScripts-related screencast targetting one of the main categories (see below).
All entries should be technical HOWTOs. Examples would include getting ES running, writing a simple ES classic addon, using a popular ES scripting features, how to use ESTools, etc.
Include a paragraph description of your submission.
Moderators and beta testers are all eligible for prizes, too. (That Mattie guy is not eligible for prizes, though.)
You can submit as many videos as you want and you could win multiple categories.
w00ts will help determine the winners, but Mattie chooses the final awards.
German and French screencasts are welcome, but keep in mind I don't speak those languages so your coding skills must be good enough that I can tell what the content is.
Deadline is August 10th.
Categories:
Best EventScripts Classic Screencast
Best Eventscripts Python Screencast
Best EventScripts Install or Troubleshooting Screencast
Best Newbie Scripting Screencast
Best Advanced Scripting Screencast
Most Professional-looking Screencast
Prizes:
Special rank in the forum
You'll get props in a special "es_thanks" client command in ES. Show off to your friends.
If we get more than 15 entries, each winning entry will receive a US$15 Amazon gift certificate.
Thanks in advance! I look forward to seeing what you guys cook up. Please respond to this thread with your favorite screen recording tools to help people get started.

Here are some random ES screencasts I did as examples. Surely you guys can do better than this!
