[TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
A jailbreak plugin I spent the last few weeks making because I was interested in writing one myself, and existing plugins didn't have the features that I was looking for or function how I'd like them to function.
The currently in-service jailbreak plugins are good, but I feel they are lacking a lot of map integration. As a jailbreak map maker I know some of the types of things that would be nice for a plugin to have that would integrate with the map, sort of features that people want but don't have. Jailbreak Redux was archived in May on github, meaning many of these features people may be wanting will likely not be added to redux. I didn't want to just fork it since this plugin was a learning process for me, so here we are. (The name Jailbreak From Scratch was chosen because it sounds catchy and a friend recommended it, it is not meant to imply this was done without any credit, inspiration, or help). This plugin is inspired by Jailbreak Redux by Scag. I played on servers utilizing it for many years, and thus lots of features are very similar because I think it does most things right, and that should be preserved. Not trying to reinvent the gamemode here, so better to not fix what isn't broken. Being my first plugin, I read it frequently to learn how certain things were done, so there is some architectural overlap between the two plugins. Features
What's missing? While many of the features work similar to Jailbreak Redux, there are a few that are different or that I chose not to include.
Installation/Configuring/Developer info I wrote a wiki on the github page which contains all you need to know about installing configuring, or developing with the plugin. If you are a developer, before you get your hopes up - there currently is not a lot of integration baked in. The only exposed natives are related to teambans. I could not think of a very good reason why another plugin would need to be able to modify the core information about this plugin, thus no other natives are exposed. They can be added if requested. For mappers, there is a section on the wiki detailing what to do in your map to integrate with the plugin, including VScript examples. Requirements
Thanks/Credits Scag, for TF2 Jailbreak Redux. FortyTwo, for the VScript plugin. Github Repo Plugin Wiki |

This plugin has existed for more time than CSGO exists, being ported from CS 1.6 as well. It is highly polished and has a ton of features you can copy pasta. |

Re: [TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
Thank you very much. I am deeply sorry to find that Jailbreak Redux is no longer updated, which will deal a very serious blow to the jail of TF2, which means that there will be no further progress in the jail of TF2. I am very happy to see someone willing to take over the jail again. Thank you again and hope you can persist in improving it

Re: [TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
This has been a long time coming. I went through some months of being busy and having little motivation, then went ahead and cranked this out in a few weeks (sparsely).
I've released a fair update to the plugin. The main plugin has gone from v1.1 -> v1.2, and the timeout plugin from v1.0 -> v1.1. Additionally, this release contains my take on the Gang plugin. I'm quite satisfied with it and I think it will be a fun addition to the gamemode. Even if it's only my servers that use it. |
Re: [TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
This plugin looks interesting, the fact that it has support gives it a bigger reason to go for it.
The gang system sounds interesting I'll give this plugin a shot on my new jailbreak I'm creating |
Re: [TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
Thanks for your efforts and sharing your project. Freddy210hill and I installed this last night and it ran error free (Linux w/ current latest dev SM/MM)
I was hoping to be clear about the map configuration file maps.cfg. With JB-redux, in the mapconfig.cfg, we were concerned with the cell door name and also the cell door button name. If I understand the wiki correctly, with your /configs/jbfs/maps.cfg in JBFS, we are only concerned with the cell door's name and don't care about the cell door's button name. Nice feature of the maps.cfg getting self configured per map upon it's running. Still have to add the coords of course, but nice feature the structure gets autogenerated. |

At some point I'd like to try and set up a nice default maps.cfg that will have most of the currently popular maps so servers can use it out of the box. You might be the first server to add it in, so if there's any issues you come across or any features you think the plugin could use, please let me know |
Re: [TF2] Jailbreak From Scratch
Hi, in the jbfs.cfg on line 205. "should guards have crits"
when the value is set to 0 crits are still enabled for guards. I don't have other plugins that would impact this. |
