2015-12-07 12:45.14 Crow: so, how difficult is it to run your own server?
2015-12-07 12:45.18 br00ze: not really hard
2015-12-07 12:45.30 Crow: how much maintenance and effort to make and keep it running?
2015-12-07 12:45.42 br00ze: download what you need .. isntall it . and then start multiplayer standalone server
2015-12-07 12:45.45 Crow: I got the technical details (hardware, power, connection etc´)
2015-12-07 12:46.02 br00ze: may some ports needed to be forwarded at router
2015-12-07 12:46.13 Crow: how about stuff you put on there, maps skins rules etc´?
2015-12-07 12:46.29 br00ze: you need a ftp server and put the compressed files there
2015-12-07 12:46.52 Crow: I want to look into that
2015-12-07 12:47.05 br00ze: you can compress files with a tool called "compress alot"
2015-12-07 12:47.15 br00ze: or using the occ.exe
2015-12-07 12:47.17 Crow: I have obsolete servers lying around, and a location where it can run 24/7 without paying for power
2015-12-07 12:47.18 br00ze: ucc.exe
2015-12-07 12:47.54 br00ze: the location of the redirect is set in the ut.ini
2015-12-07 12:48.08 br00ze: ut-files.com is doof place to find all
2015-12-07 12:48.14 br00ze: a good place
2015-12-07 12:48.22 Crow: I´ll look into that
2015-12-07 12:48.31 BlueDolfin: do you have an redirecting server also?
2015-12-07 12:48.36 br00ze: and you may need to do a little update with the masterserver issue
2015-12-07 12:48.42 br00ze: yes
2015-12-07 12:48.56 br00ze: if you bandwidth is good you can run from same IP
2015-12-07 12:49.10 Beemo: ~.:Hello:.~
2015-12-07 12:49.16 Crow: well, is a 15/1 connection decent enough?
2015-12-07 12:49.16 viandel: new map?
2015-12-07 12:49.20 Beemo: no
2015-12-07 12:49.33 BlueDolfin: its mostly upload right?
2015-12-07 12:49.37 br00ze: depends on how long jetlag and annabella are talking
2015-12-07 12:49.48 BlueDolfin: lol

2015-12-07 12:50.25 br00ze: he did not even send a pic of him
2015-12-07 12:50.26 Beemo: o.o

2015-12-07 12:53.22 br00ze: i made a screenshot and sent it to the mapper
2015-12-07 12:53.22 BlueDolfin: the game is almost 20 years old
2015-12-07 12:53.28 br00ze: and he got angry he did all right
2015-12-07 12:53.41 Beemo: OpenGL? Direct3D? Software?
2015-12-07 12:53.45 br00ze: actually i use d3d9
2015-12-07 12:53.52 br00ze: 32bit
2015-12-07 12:53.56 Crow: I think D3D as well
2015-12-07 12:54.01 Beemo: it´s probably why
2015-12-07 12:54.10 br00ze: d3d9 is different than d3d
2015-12-07 12:54.12 Crow: open GL is obsolete
2015-12-07 12:54.15 br00ze: maybe i try d3d10
2015-12-07 12:54.22 br00ze: no .. opengl is best for this game
2015-12-07 12:54.30 Beemo: have you installed Chris Dohnal´s OpenGL drivers?
2015-12-07 12:54.39 br00ze: i my card does not support opengl
2015-12-07 12:54.42 Beemo: a LOT better than Epic´s OpenGL and Direct3D
2015-12-07 12:54.48 Crow: hmm
2015-12-07 12:54.55 Crow: I should check it out then
2015-12-07 12:55.04 br00ze: i think of trying to install glidewrapper
2015-12-07 12:55.11 Beemo: google "chris dohnal opengl"
2015-12-07 12:55.15 Beemo: look for UTGLR37
2015-12-07 12:55.22 Beemo: that´s the latest version
2015-12-07 12:55.33 Crow: also since my last video card failed a few months ago, now with the card I use (an older Nvidia),
2015-12-07 12:55.35 br00ze: yer .. i used to play with utglr3.4
2015-12-07 12:55.36 Beemo: download, unzip it, copy the files to your System folder
2015-12-07 12:55.46 Beemo: make a backup of the original, though
2015-12-07 12:55.48 br00ze: not all cards support opengl
2015-12-07 12:55.55 Crow: first time I launch the game everythig is glitchy, so I have to restart it
2015-12-07 12:56.08 Crow: 2nd time everything is fie

2015-12-07 12:56.19 Crow: nvidia for life.
2015-12-07 12:56.22 Beemo: indeed
2015-12-07 12:56.27 Crow: don´t like ATI
2015-12-07 12:56.50 br00ze: so you have some servers 24/7 for free ???
2015-12-07 12:56.53 Crow: I´ll check it out, will write it down now

2015-12-07 12:58.22 Beemo: ~.:Hello:.~
2015-12-07 12:58.28 *POTS*: hi
2015-12-07 12:58.48 br00ze: how rude </3
2015-12-07 12:59.00 Crow: it´s an older apartment building, where the bills are included in the rent,
2015-12-07 12:59.05 Crow: no payine per usage.
2015-12-07 12:59.08 viandel: moonwalking queen
2015-12-07 12:59.09 br00ze: i just meant the country
2015-12-07 12:59.22 BlueDolfin:
2015-12-07 12:59.22 br00ze: but i guess for some gametypes it does notz matter
2015-12-07 12:59.31 Beemo: gg
2015-12-07 12:59.45 Crow: well this is a German server, am I correct?
2015-12-07 12:59.54 BlueDolfin: yep
2015-12-07 13:00.01 Crow: and I am playing from Canada, the my ping is great
2015-12-07 13:00.11 br00ze: have to test it
2015-12-07 13:00.16 BlueDolfin: the server is hosted in Germany
2015-12-07 13:00.29 br00ze: the problem is perhaps to make the server know to the master server
2015-12-07 13:00.32 br00ze: tknown
2015-12-07 13:00.48 br00ze: otherwise people have to guess the IP ...
2015-12-07 13:00.51 Crow: this might be a problem?
2015-12-07 13:01.02 br00ze: yes
