Hi all. If you have played in either of my two servers:
HDD21'S Classic server and: HDD21'S Custom maps server
Please could you post any suggestions for them here?
The custom maps one will only have ones made by me.
Ill do antoher custom maps server with alot of the old classics that are up on the downloads part here on it.
My servers do get some traffic
.
Im just looking at how to make them better. They are on all the masterservers i know of. And securied by nepthys. It is hosting with the 225 patch.
Specs of them are:
TickRate: 60
Connection speed: 8 MBPS download 448 kbps upload. (this game is designed for dial up so thats decent).
Player pings:
Euro players: 50 - 100
USA players: 120 - 300 (depnding on distance from UK etc).
Slots:
Classic server: 16
Custom maps: 10
the classic has had 8 players in at one time with good ping (all were averaging at 60 - 80 ping)
The custom maps had 4 players in tops with the same result.
It is hosted on a box that isnt touched. I just start the servers with bat files that are in its startup. So as a result it can sit in the corner with out a montior. Not been down for ages (apart from today when my house had a powercut for 1 hr.) And i was at school so wasnt there to restart them. So little downtime.
Both are DM. The classic one is just the default maps. With classic game difficulty.
The tickrate i may raise but then theres the problem of more bandwith usage i heard. And 60 should be plenty. As for mods, Just the nepthys mod. 227e im thinking to install on it if people want it on there. But for now ill stick with 255. If it aint broke dont fix it
.
Also im not sure if nepthys works with 227e.
Post suggestions here
