it is truly odd indeed. if you download Qtracker you can see what port your Server is operating from. I have multiple ports exposed on my pc and it seems to grab one of them.. but there must be a way to specify the port. I will look into it. CT....  [Read More]

I definitely think it's worth trying... a 600k up limit should be lag free for up to 10 players. You might want to increase this to 12 or 14 and ask your players to see how it's handling. At 12 or 14 players I think your 866 will do fine provided y...  [Read More]

What it LOOKS like the game is doing is spawning new players in 15 second increments so when you join you spawn in 15 seconds or less with that "batch" of spawns. not 100% sure on this though.. any other thoughts? Kevlar -- thanks for post...  [Read More]

Try opening port 3568 this is often the one used for PC Game Servers, but this software is so buggy it makes me pull my hair out. I've been trying since the beta to set up a stable server and it just won't stay up . It lasts anywhere from 12 to 24 h...  [Read More]

This appears to be another problem with the "/autonet listen" switch. Try using a batch file to create a dedicated server then joining it. if you do it right it will take only a neglible amount more cpu time and a lot of problems will be f...  [Read More]
