I'd be happy to help with admin duties as long as I don't have a schedule conflict.

Star Wars Battlefront (2004 Original) / Re: Server with fake players

A long running crashed server does that. People try to join, but they never can, but it keeps their names like they are on. As Majesty said, it happens.

SWBF 1 and 2 Tournaments / Re: ICW5 After Party FUN War --- Interested?
August 10, 2015, 02:08:30 PMI made a how-to video [spoiler]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yICQJa3TW0U[/spoiler]for those that needed help with installing the ICW5 maps, if there is a separate download for the party I'd be happy to create a separate video with perhaps even a little more detail. Maybe even ask Kiwi to do a voice over?

I think Bomber's rules are fair. Just to mention, Alpha's root server (quad Xeon >2GHz) runs on 93 down 13 up and seems to do ok with at least up to 15 players. Haven't tried more than that.

Also if u track the IP to know more about the host, u'll see how the DNS does not belong to any server-hosting company, what means it is selfhost --> http://www.ip-tracker.org/locator/ip-lookup.php?ip=80.147.13.240
I think the intended meanings here are that self-hosted means hosting from within the game stand alone / client, while dedicated server means using the BF server software to host. Even in the strictest definition of a dedicated physical box purposed solely for hosting BF, a dedicated server need not come from a server-hosting company.

I think TheGangStarTY was going to work on adding a BF2 server with mods. I might give it a try sometime but not until I am under less stress. No idea when. You might want to give it a try yourself?

I apologize for the inclusion of unintended clan names from the name of our practice server. They were based on a previous post but clearly not appropriate. They have been removed. Batman has tentatively agreed to Merc.

Tech Support / Re: Upgrading to a Tablet Stand
August 02, 2015, 08:15:49 PM
I built a stand for my laptop from the chain link fence tension rods at Home Depot (USA). It took a little grinding, welding, paint, and some non-slip tool drawer lining. And about 2.5 hours. Not sure it was worth it, but I've used it almost every day for 5 years. With a little work, building your own may be fun and rewarding and cheaper.

Alpha server (Denver, USA) will be available for backup, but if it becomes a persistent gamemaster problem, there is not much we can do. Other than offer to host a gamemaster backup and get Kalle's buy-in. But hopefully the new DOS-proof German server will be resilient!

FYI - Our server is having a heck of a time getting games to update on the American Gamemaster server today. Some were taking over half an hour to register. I switched to the German gamemaster server and they came up right away.

I died at the time of the first lag that Shazam posted but that's because seconds prior, Commander Jec showed me how to fly without using a jetpack. Lag #2, Lord Satan and I were unaffected, but I do understand that getting booted can be quite disrupting / upsetting, especially during an official match. @ times 11:15 & 12:01
I had forgotten what "trisomic" meant and had to look it up.

Welcome! I think you'll find this is great community! Feel free to PM me if you get stuck with the gamemaster setup.

Star Wars Battlefront (2004 Original) / Re: Error When Installing SWBF1 1.2 Patch (EN)
June 19, 2015, 11:16:51 AM
Probably not it, but I got that error when I replaced the exe but was running from a short cut that was looking for the wrong or old exe. At least I think that's how I messed it up. I had to delete the old shortcut and recreate from the new exe in the GameData folder. I think.
