<div class="IPBDescription">What is it and where can I get it?</div> This is an update of a discussion that's been going on in <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=8&t=34997' target='_blank'>The Server Ops forum</a>.

NS 1.05 (Unofficial) servers are those servers which run the following metamod plugins:

No Leap Exploit (hullu)
Umbra Spawn ([WHO]Them)
Hive Heal Fix ([WHO]Them)
Unstuck Pro (hullu)

Due to some issues which are currently being resolved, the Umbra Spawn plugin may not be operation yet on some Linux servers bearing this title, however that will follow soon.

These servers may be running other plugins too, however these 4 listed above constitute "NS 1.05 (Unofficial)"

Not all servers may be labelled as Unofficial, however there is NO OFFICIAL 1.05, so actually they're all unofficial <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

It is also highly recommended that you play on Cheating-Death enabled servers, as the feeling amongst the community is that the best play is to be found on those servers.

I will pimp my server:
Roob's *No Time For Muppets* NS 1.05 (CDReq)
163.1.180.217:27016
(UK)
But there are many more out there.

Hopefully soon there will be a cvar so you can sort through NS 1.05 servers in your third party program (ASE, HLSW etc), but this is work in progress.

    As for where you can get it... you can't it's a collection of the 4 above server side mods for NS 1.04, and as yet there is not one unified package called NS 1.05. For now, just play on the servers running 1.05 <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    More pimpage for Roo's in the sig...

    This does fix a lot of the problems in 1.04 - it nerfs the jetpack and stops spawncamping. I'm so happy! The marines are in trouble now, they'll have to *gasp* STOP JP RUSHING!!

    actually Cypher, the jet pack nerf isn't on my server any more, some high pingers were having problems with it, and low fps users also found it impossible, but the jp rush is rarely seen on my server anyway <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think I played on one of them yesterday.

    IP is:

    66.54.220.193:27017

    I don't know where it is or what... just try it.

    Yes indeed, I at 40 FPS was barely able to fly, the speed at which I lost fuel was incredible, whereas guys on 80+ FPS were jetpacking happily as I used to without the nerf (quite enough to kill a hive with a hmg and a few landing moments). I really should take a demo of how fast I lose speed but I can't be bothered finding a server running '1.05' and camping the marine door on the off chance I will get a jetpack.

    Oh, god. How did I miss those posts about the JP fix? Doh. :/

    I like the blood addon, personally. Not because I'm a vicious sadist who relishes the sight of blood (honest), but because I can tell if I actually hit the marines. It helps a great deal.

    Woa jp fix.. good

    But if its only affecting low fps users its not so good.
    I just played the worst game ever on nancy:

    - Aliens totally pwning marines
    - Rines research jp's on ONE RT
    - ONE rine, skilled or unskilled it doesnt matter, get to unnamed with jp/hmg by vents and kill unnamed hive before gorge get second hive growing (good gorge; only RT's). Not even had time being a <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> to go and try to eat him before the hive was down. No res to lerk and defend hive vs jp neither.

    That was BS. I'm really sick of marines having to use a unbalanced feature cause they suck.
    If i was not so addicted to NS i would stop playing 1.04 cause of this. Problem is im really addicted and im forcing myself to keep playing even with that 1.04 bs thats why im really getting mad.

    K enough.
    /tries to calm down <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The best fix for JP's would be raising the cost of it to like 20 res each, or raising the time needed to research it maybe, not affecting users with low fps. Now ive no idea if we have a way to touch res costs/research time via plugins...

    I was there, we had only just gotten DCs up and bam the unnamed hive (or mother hive <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->) was down in less than a second.

    The gorge had 60 res (a second put up the DCs) and could do nothing.... we had the marines down to one man, when they tried to relocate to subs and failed.... its a sin to see that happen.

    simple make the proto lab need an advanced armoury and motion tracking aswell as the arms lab, that will definately slow it down <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    We've got that at nano (look at my sig) and there is a slight problem with the code for umbra spawn crashing the server occasionally and creating a slight bit of lag (the 1.1 code will fix this anyways), but other than this, it works great.

    *edit* We also have the very useful JP nerf as well. (To all you JP **** who have complained, it's progress, cry some more. Remember Quoting FWs sig "Newbies Whine. Veterans Adapt.)

    <b>NB 1.05 does NOT INCLUDE THE JET PACK NERF per se</b>, though many 1.05 servers may be running it. Mine, for one, does not because of the problems I've described.

    Me<---ShootHere, I think I've seen you on my server but no I never play with the name Roob the Noob <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
