I have been asking peeps to add us to their favorites after each round that I play. If we gather enough regulars, this server could stay full all the time without having to babysit it. Can we add console messages that highlight kill streaks and knife kills?
I've been doing the same. Seems like people really enjoy it for the most part and its taking less and less effort to get it going. However I did notice some lag last night I know shark you were mentioning it also anyone else seeing this?
I was mentioning it. Although Murder said his was game was running fine. So, it could just but a routing issue. It also seem to only happen when the server was near-full.
We have a really solid Nam server now in terms of performance and config. The server starts to fill once we have 4 or more players in it, people even start to trickle in when I leave the game running idle. Until we start to have some more regular non-members players coming back to the server, we need to make a concious effort to get it started when it's empty. It usually gets running pretty fast and stays going once you do get it started. Also we should really be on the look out for regulars that come to the server and personally invite them to the forums. Like Shark said it would be nice if we didn't have to babysit the server. If any of you guys see a regular on the server and they're not a douche, post their name here so we can all be on the lookout for them. ____ <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Shark @ Apr 11 2011, 11:24 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div> Yes that's easy to add to PRoCon but it will spam the hell out of the chat box. That's why we added the 'type @rules for the list of our rules' instead of scrolling them so the chat overlay wasn't being spammed. DICE ruined the chat overlay in BC2 and made it worse with updates. The big black box in the upper left of the screen is annoying and distracting as fck... But if people want it the feature can be easily added. ____ <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (IwazInYoMom69 @ Apr 11 2011, 11:29 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div> Was it actually lagging or Shark just whining because someone kept killing him? I will look into it, I have yet to experience any performance related issues with that server yet. If it is lagging maybe it has something to do with streaming to pbbans and pbss's which were recently enabled.
It didn't last long but it was clearly noticeable for several minutes. It was the first time I had seen the server perform that way. It cleared up relatively quick and I didn't see again. I haven't had the chance to hop on today hopefully tonight. I'll see if it keeps up and let you know bendover.
PB Screenshots were recently enabled. Unless Muddr (who requested it) can get decent use out of it, it might be better to turn them off.
Umm.. no... I requested http access to the screenshots.. they were already there.. it was just a bitch to get to them..
Roger... wasn't sure if it was you who needed them on. Again, if we can't make use of them, we might want to disable the screenshots.
I agree with Cletus, I really don't think we need pb streaming or screenshots (it's pretty easy to spot hackers on BC2). Honestly I don't think we should run anything that may hinder the performance of the server. A smooth Nam server is what will keep players coming around. Just my two cents.
I was connected to the server for all of this afternoon. But, now it says I am not on there. Either my system doinked at home or the server was restarted?
