LOL. Yeah, we would have to limit a match on Maul to 7 minutes or so to prevent players from going into shock

I think I would need to drink Jolt to calm down after something like that

1600kbps upload!!!!! OMG!!!! Even with my new cable service, I'll only be getting that down!!!! This has got to be done. Good point about the CPU demands, no bots = low load.

Yep, that 4x the upload we have and 2x the upload of the Fusion server. Are you saying that bots put more of a demand on the CPU than players? If that's true then I'm worried even less about the CPU power. I once tested the K62 server by setting MinPlayers really high to determine how many players the CPU could support. I joined over the LAN. The results were that with 25-28 bots in the game the CPU was steady in the low 90% range. I figured that was about as high as I could go leaving a little bit of CPU available for spikes and such. This was on a K62 500 Mhz box with 384MB of PC100.

Yeah, bots put a much bigger load on the CPU than real players. Looks like RedBox won't need too much under his hood to run a 30 player server. Is 30 the max players UT2K3 supports? I don't recall offhand.

Glad to hear it RedBox

How's it feel? I'm currently sitting here with Lenny's prize on the desk next to me. Hoping to get that out at lunch time.

Don't know about the accuracy yet. But it sure does glide smoooooottthly.

Don't forget to velcro your mouse to your hand until you get used it. I hear a mouse will just launch right off thing!!! No telling where it will land

wait you didn't have the mouse? That's why we lost the last match. I think it's J1mb0b plan the entire time

Lenny just realizes this thread is doing wonders for this post count

Redbox, do you have another rig 800 Mhz or better with around 384MB RAM you could use to host a CTF Frag-fest match?

Yes. I was hoping to test out the current rig to see how it would take it. There's a P4 2GHz 512MB RAM but I can't put it up 24/7 like the other server, only for matches and scheduled played/practices.

Redbox... let me know how that mousepad is! I'm thinking of picking up a RatpadzGS sometime as a new toy.

Lenny... Ruth is using the mouse as a pacifier!
