Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Or a HL2 one? :D

I know we had/have(?) a CS 1.6 server

I would definatly join in if we had a server. Run it with 4 bots when nobody is there, i would even come to play against bots.

There is a server like that on the internet, that i join with a friend. It has 4 bots, when nobody is there. When we join, in no-time the server is filled. It would be cool to have some online activity...

I agree with this idea, it'd be nice to have a good server to play on.

Maybe if we had one we could schedule a regular time each week to gather together for a big game on it?

How about a Cube server, that way I can pwn everyone at BU ;)

Har har har... ¬¬
Why not a TS server? It's pretty good, ya know...

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
why not all 3? :)

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
That'd take up a lot of bandwidth/compy power for 3 servers. We'll need a volunteer here to get even one good speed dedicated server up.

I might volunteer to host a BU server of something for a while, but it wouldn't be a 24/7 server. I'd only be able to afford to have it up for a day every week perhaps.

Lets hear if anyone else might volunteer.

Rick 17-06-2005 20:49

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
A cube server is very leightweight since the game is 90% client side. Besides that the server has no dependencies and only needs the binary file to run(no mapfiles or something like that).
But 2 Source servers would be a bit to much perhaps :)

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Why not DOD. ???:(

And i volunteer.
Server already up :D
jasp.xs4all.nl:27015

stefanhendriks 17-06-2005 21:21

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
i don't play DoD... hehe ;)

perhaps DoD source, but i doubt it.

And I stopped playing it a long time ago, and when I did play it, it was only with Sturm Bot over LANs with people.

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
We tried running a server before... it was very laggy. I want to see a forgotten battles/ace/pacific 4.01m server.

von Ryan 18-06-2005 12:55

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Well, then, we could put a HL2DM (or CTF)... Or even a PoA... What do you think?

sPlOrYgOn 18-06-2005 14:02

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
it shouldn't lag too much with 3 servers.. BU is on a 100mbps line if I remember correctly..

stefanhendriks 18-06-2005 14:12

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Sounds like we got some attention here. I wonder what some council members think of it...

Roger. I'll take a look at it when I've got more time :)

Zacker 20-06-2005 11:50

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Or maybe a SoW(www.sandsofwar.net) server!:)

stefanhendriks 20-06-2005 12:15

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Rofl. Yeah why not. Lets run all the possible servers we can imagine. Starting with Quake 1, (i love that classic)... Quake 2. Quake 3 , Unreal, Unreal Tournament. Not to mention HL and all its mods. HL2 and its mods...hmm

perhaps we should ask some donation for a new server :D

HangFire 21-06-2005 06:44

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
And then theres loads of mods for each of those. Could have a day each week for "X" mod.

That sounds nice...

Rick 21-06-2005 17:09

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Server of the month would be nicer IMO
Lets have a tribes 2 server too :)

HangFire 21-06-2005 19:15

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Didn't they make Tribes 2 available for free (legally)?

Rick 21-06-2005 19:25

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Well yeah...but you can't play online :(
I think you could get the game + a cd key from fileplanet, but fp stopped with that. You can still download the game(without a key) from somewhere else though.

HangFire 21-06-2005 20:08

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Hmm, and it'd be tough to find a copy to buy. Quake on the other hand would be perfect, its free and theres lots of great mods and source ports out.

I would definently like to host a server of that.

Rick 21-06-2005 21:23

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Quake is free? The game is open source, but I think you still need the game data.
However if you want a free clone of tribes: http://www.legendsthegame.net/
Its a nice game with good graphics, but it doesn't have any vehicles so far.

Bumping topic for Great Justice.


So.. I'm still really up for this idea, but it kind of died.

Aside from me, do we have any volunteers?
Would a significant number of people actually want to regularily play on the server?
Would it be better to have a one day per week game session, so we have a full server instead of constantly near empty one?
What games/mods?

Pierre-Marie Baty 26-06-2005 20:26

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
I will try to set up the server(s) tonight.

HangFire 26-06-2005 23:29

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
..Of CS:S?

von Ryan 26-06-2005 23:46

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Well, I could play on the weekends... And my vacations are coming ;)

Whistler 27-06-2005 10:22

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
There is shareware versions of Quake 1 and 2 (which are gratis), and you can compile the source code to get rid of the restrictions (can't use custom data).

stefanhendriks 27-06-2005 11:24

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
yay. Way to go PMB. Let me know when their up.. perhaps its worthy a sticky topic on our 'offtopic forums' so people can join in right away? :D

Pierre-Marie Baty 27-06-2005 19:06

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
CS Source server is up at bots-united.com:27015

Cube server is up at bots-united.com:28765 (appears as "server-two" in the master server list)

Yes...how about a saturday or sunday?

HangFire 27-06-2005 21:08

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
What time? Gotta try to pick one that doesn't end up with some people playing at 4:00am in their time zone.

And I'll try to get on the BU server today too.

Rick 27-06-2005 22:07

Thats 3:00pm for me, should work for now, unless I have to work that time eventually.

Er, and which one? The Cube or CS:S server?

Rick 28-06-2005 00:08

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Well I don't have CS:S, so I guess it would be Cube for me :)

edit: Actually 9:00 pm gmt is a bit early here, maybe one hour later would be better

HangFire 28-06-2005 07:58

Re: Why don't we have a CSS server? :D
 
Ok, I'll try to get on there 4:00 pm CST saturday.

I checked out Batyparte's CS:S server, good ping for me, 160-170. Nobody there but me and a few bots that pwned me good. :-/
