Title: Two questions
Post by: FuzzyQuills on May 05, 2017, 10:34:15 PM
Hey all, been a while since I played BFII and thought of giving SWBFSpy a go again.

Is there any known Australian servers working? Main reason I ask is that my horrid upload speed means US servers have upwards of 200 ping where I am. (same goes for Team Fortress 2, good thing Valve put servers in Sydney)

And last I checked, ONLY the US had any servers...

If not, I do have a VPS I could start one on if there's enough aussies interested.

Oh, and my second question; has anyone noticed any significant change from the new update that came through on Steam? (for those using the Steam version)

That update is just a DirectX update. Some people seem to think the menus are running faster because of it, but it isnt really notable.

Alright, noted about the updates, I did at first assume DirectX redist updates, as it's apparently happened before.

As for aussie servers, I guess I install WINE onto my server and configure it... then load SWBFII on.

Any minimum RAM requirements for a SWBFII server? I'd assume that it wouldn't need much, given the age of the game.

If you get the SWBF2 server to work with wine, let us know how.  No one that I know of has gotten it to work yet.
