If anyone cares

Hey everyone. Well, I went and did it again.......

After playing on other servers I never really found one that I thought was admined well and I was just always frustrated. I guess this is part of online game playing. So, I got the bug again to admin my own servers.

I just started another Assault server that is located in New York. I went through a different game server provider and the game is on a Windows box. The control panel is a bit weaker than the CP from clanservers.com. But, I think the box plays a little better. There were several EU players this morning with pings from 90 to 150. My ping from Delaware is 15.

I'm planning on getting a CTF/DM as well as a MH server shortly. (I've been eating Delaware cheesesteaks instead of those expensive Philly cheesesteaks.....so, I got the $$$)

I'm not sure if this will turn out any differently than my other attempts, but, we'll see.

Best,
SPS

Just to give an update....

The server in NJ is now running Monster Hunt. I started a AS server in London that is hosted with GameServers.com. I went with them because I was more comfortable with their control panel. However, in working more with the CP with the UltimateGameServer.com, it really isn't bad....just different. The only issue is I can't change the command line script to auto-start the server. I have to open a trouble ticket. So far, the support from UltimateGameServer.com has been great.

Anyways, back to the London server......its a piece of shit. I had issues with the London install in the past with GameServers.com. I'm going to move it back to the US. I just hope it gets used. I'll let you know when the move is complete.

Best,
SPS

The AS server is now in Chicago.

It currently has the standard AS maps (except I have GuardiaII instead of Guardia) in rotation.

What are people's thoughts here? Should I install MapVote with the standard as well as League maps? What about custom maps?

Any other ideas?

Best,
SPS

for at least a little while i would leave it standard as possible so people dont have issues d/l packages and such. then when you gain some reputation start adding those. thats just my experience in the past also be sure to test all redirect files to make sure you dont have any laggy files. let me know if you need any help i have lots of old webpages to help you along

p.s. dont forget we have a whole treasure trove of goodies right here: downloads/downloads/ and here most files already compressed and redirect ready downloads/

Hey SK. Thanks for the links to the download section.

I compress all files and have a decent and reliable redirect. Some of those MH files and maps are huge!

I still have to upload all of the non-standard textures.

Best,
SPS
