HAC2 - configuration
Various other articles exist for the basics of HAC2 configuration. That information will be added here at a later date. For now, see the new features below.
HAC2 - new features
Since late 2018, I have added a few new features to HAC2. These include:
Last server bookmark. The last server you joined will be bookmarked as Alt-L.
FQDN support for bookmarks. This allows a full domain name to be stored in bookmarks for your server. There is a 32-character limit. If you want to add a domain name to your SAPP server, add "query_add fqdn <servername>" to the init.txt. For example:
query_add fqdn halosrv1.halonet.net
In HSE®, add: se_hostname <fqdn> to the init.txt
Discord Rich Presence support. This was added by Btcc22, but I have made enhancements to it. I added the ability to detect a "private" server, so that the specifics are not broadcast to Discord. HSE® respects the sv_public setting and needs no further configuration. For SAPP, add "query_add private 1" to your init.txt
Time remaining in the F1 screen. This was added by Btcc22/Chaosvex. This works with HSE® as well as the latest version of SAPP. No further configuration necessary.
Classic chat. This mimics the classic Halo chat but uses Btcc22's custom chat code. Use the console command "classic_chat 1" to turn it on when not connected to a server. If you are connected to a server when you turn it on, some chat text may remain on the screen for the remainder of the game.
chat_font command. Sets the font used by custom or classic chat. For example: chat_font "Lucida Console"
font_size command. Use this to set the font size. Default is around 24. This was done by Btcc22, but I include it here because of the classic chat and other chat settings I added.
line_limit command. Sets the number of lines of custom or classic chat on the screen. The default is 6.
More coming as time permits.
