=/WoVi/=kirumovka Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 (edited) Because people were requesting for a server where you had to navigate on your own like the old TAW server, I was thinking of hosting my own server.BAM!! I did it with some trouble here and there with misleading definitions and stuff but since I already know how to poke a hole in the router n stuff, I guess I did this a lot quicker than compared to hosting a Tremulous server...However, because I live in Perth, Western Australia, where all the sh*t connections are, think of that but add 100 msec. Why? Because the west australian-indian ocean line/south asian line pretty much almost never gets used unless you're living in south east europe, meaning that Europeans may feel my pain of connecting to european servers (480+ msec) while russians, well living in russia, will experience similar latency. But they don't have it worse. Malaysians, living in malaysia, could just connect directly to Perth, Western Australia with a mere 100 msec latency (the same connecting to Sydney from Perth due to copper wires and that distance) gets about 550 msec unfortunately (sorry imw123, I'm sorry) because their connection routes through... you guessed it (or not), HAWAII! In the case you didn't get it, that's a long way around the earth## Some thoughts ##-I was also thinking of doing an Expert Ranked server instead but looking at the mission rotation, well it's pretty restrictive. I very much prefer WoL's rotation from what I can recall. -Was thinking of editing some of WoL's rotation files and dumping some 1800kg and 2500 kg allowances with restricted number of bombers than can carry those payloads## What I need ##- WoL mission or the alike missions and chuck out the ones I have (I just grabbed whatever for now to set up the server). I can fit in some tanks here and there but its not like anyone really plays them for more than an day's worth of gameplay....- players or it'll be pointless - I need a Dedicated server login. Currently I'm using my own login so I no can play on it :'C ## Restrictions / Conditions ##- I live in Western Australia. Like I mentioned above, the latency isn't too good. My upload can only support probably up to 25 players max considering how inefficent this game is at handling resources so the set limit currently is only 32 players - Rules: Basically what WoL has but without navigational markers, however I've also added the allowance for mouse aim/joystick/thingy if that setting actually does anything. According to a certain PDF document it doesn't do anything, but that was created before mouse joystick was re-invented for the 777 studios games. - I can only host the server at certain times of the day and when I feel like it because oh boy, does it consume a lot of resources. If you're on discord (magztv: https://discord.gg/Mp4k8sG or direct ZdrytchX#4887) or if you have me on steam (I'm not just adding anyone I see tehe~) or IRC if you're the 90s kid type of person (Username: ZdrytchX in both servers, channels that have me are #xonotic @ irc.quakenet.org and #pilots @ irc.freenode.org) then you can poke me around and stuff and I'll bring up the server for you and your straya mates.

=/WoVi/=kirumovka Posted August 24, 2016 Author Posted August 24, 2016 Actually seems like people can't connect to it. Help anyone?
