Bringing back the Ideal 1942RP Experience

About ROG

Republic of Gaming - [ROG] (at one point named Liquid Network) founded July 5, 2017 is a gaming community/network originally built with the intention of preserving People of Gaming's - [POG] fallen gamemode.

Before their 2.0 update, we noticed that the community was neglected and heading into a downward spiral, hence the formation of ROG-1942RP.

The original creation of ROG's 1942RP became a simple homage to the legacy of People of Gaming and to bring new life into an outdated gamemode. We also pride ourselves on our more normal playstyle compared to more popular RP Server counterparts, focusing on DarkRP, Base Wars and Resistanace (Factions) Gameplay.

Republic of Gaming will never and never plan to be like the other RP Servers leaning into random custom model deployment (Star Wars) or indoctrination of players with outdated beliefs and antisemitism. Ironically the entire reason I developed ROG in the first place was to continue Resistance vs Reich and Faction vs Faction gameplay.

My plans for ROG is to keep it online, including Game Server and Web Servers up as long as I can. 1942RP was a good chunk of my online experience and having people experience what I was able to get is something I enjoy.

Compared to the other deployments of 1942RP, I always saw them as cash grabs and trying to take from a community and disappearing the donators dried up, which is not what I plan to do. If you were a previous supporter of our Republic of Gaming project, I setup a list to pay homage to our supporters that have kept ROG alive.

If you would like to support this project financially, I have setup our donation module, powered by Prometheus, there you can purchase a package of any sort to help donate to the project.

As of 12/11/2023, Prometheus is currently enabled for donations/purchases. Contact Rorky on Discord directly for more assistance.

SAM - Server Administration Management Tool

SAM is a lightweight administration tool, capable of multi-instance integration with unique features like Live Banning while a player is still connected to the server, web based permission system and Steam authentication for users.

The development of SAM was based off my experience and knowledge of popular administration modules like ULX, Assmod and the most niche one I had seen, GMPM by People of Gaming.

Note: Our In Game Application is integrated with FSReport (A POG Product & AWarn2/3 a ULX Warning System).
SAM In-game 1 SAM In-game 2 SAM In-game 3
Note: Our Web Application of SAM does not store any sort of credentials information like SourceBans. We authenticate via OpenID & Steam so they handle the processing entirely.

Map Development

rp_kielce has gone under many changes by many other mappers

The Bank has experienced some new changes such as a gated defense, which may seem redundant, allows for another layer of protection for both Bank Robbers and Reich Officials. Also there is now a newly developed Jewelry System that allows thieves to steal from given requirements are met and can be sold on to the "Black Market" aka an NPC for a given rate.

Due to popular demand a Casino has been introduced as a gameplay enhancer but does have some FPS drawbacks due to additional amount of active systems on the Server.

Lumberyard:

For the new addition of the Lumberjack Job, tree's will spawn here in the "Lumberyard" where they can cut down logs and have them processed into their wallet.

Mine:

For the new addition of the Miner Job, rocks will spawn here that contain ores when broken down. Credit to POG:R for the design and idea.

Spawn 1 portal has moved to spawn near Foto Apartments, but also the Reich property line has grown and now the Reich Transportation Yard has grown so the new vehicles spawn on Reich Property.

The slums have experienced a tiny change, where the second spawn tunnel leads, is now an open road that used to be covered with an unplayable building. This has allowed for a more open map experience and even less of a blockade.

A new corridor has been built in behind the Fuhrer's Office that allows for secret entrance and escape for the Fuhrer. This would also allow for secret infiltration and exfiltration for anyone. The platform also allows for someone to walk outside and take a fresh air of the Reichstag.

Escape Route:

A new infiltration and exfiltration point has been developed for the West Wing of the Reichstag. This allows for further opportunity for Resistance Members to infiltrate to Raid the Reich, but also exfiltrate High Command Officials during time of emergency.

Gameplay Changes

We set the server tickrate to 66 tick which has allowed for better movement and overall handling of in game movement/mechanics.

We have updated the interface for jobs to be more understandable and easier to navigate for members to use. We also have added new jobs for players to try to modernize the RP Experience. For example we have added a new "Drug Dealer" job which lets players cook and grow illicit items for players to sell to the Reich Market. Casino Manager is also a new addition to help handle any issues that come with the Casino Building/Service that was newly added.

Majority of RP Models have been updated, modernized and corrected for the time period and also design choice. The Reich Models now properly correspond to the rank that player is given. Resistance also now have choices between the original suit and fedora combo or customizable suits with new color designs and patterns, allowing for unique looks and combination. Business Class also has had slight changes in their outfits, trying to make them more unique and appealing.

Weapon Changes

Formerly, the community ran off the Siminov gun base which made it easier to manage and considering the unique "Finished Off" feature that was implemented with the revive system. With our version we have decided to implement three different unique gun bases for good reason.

Primary Gun Base - CW:2.0:

The primary gun base that is used in the server is CW:2.0 using the AToW Pack. This allowed an essential refresh of 95% of the Siminov weapons, allowing unique customizability and better handling for new players and a refresh for veteran players.
