New BF42 Server feedback

[[JiF]Mike]

How's everyone's ping? I've seen some positive comments in the chat but I want to know what going on and I might miss chat messages. Please post any comments here.

I'm loving it, game play feels much smoother, ping rate has improved for me here in Holland.
Getting more kills and bots are like swatting flies lol!
Can't get into Remote yet though. All I had to do was change the IP, right? Password + username should be the same?

Glad to hear the game has improved. The admin tool has not been setup with every ones un and pw yet. It ran fine for a while then stopped working. They just reinstalled the server to try and fix it but something is still wrong so they escalated the ticket. They are responding quickly so I hope to know more soon.

It's great! My ping is an average of 150, but I think it's our cabin's modem fault. I also miss the PBHub's welcome messages.

That will be back. I don't want to add to many things right away until we know the basics are working correctly.

Seems to be working fine Mike played for about an hour last night no probs.
Only problem I did have was when the server was down my wife decided it was a good time for me to repaint and wallpaper our bedroom!!!!

My ping is about the same but the server definately feels a little smoother - great job Mike

I am in Nebraska and my ping went up a bit, not bad though! Server seems very smooth and has been working well for me.
I am glad they are working on the manager part, we do need to get that running. Seems like a couple new? players seem to know we can not do anything for their cussing and tking.

Over all it looks to be a good server Mike. Thank you again for the work you are putting in.

Host has told me everything should be working now so I am in the process of getting the old admin tool userlist out of the backup to load it up. I'll post in the BF admin section when it's done.

maybe just the name + joined is enough.

PBHub Welcomes Frenchy is just way to long

Was on a bit last night and it seems smother. Thanks for your efforts Mike.

Say can we just have all the maps in rotation or would now be a good time to give all the admins (who are now paying) full rights to be able to adjust the map rotation so we don't seem to just play Husky 20% of the time?

Seriously if there's any issues, we are mature enough to handle it amongst us admins.

Thanks for all your work bud!!

The only problem with constantly adjusting the map cycle is that it doesn't take until the next map change. Plus when I start the schedule mod change to bg42 the map cycle is saved to a separate file that only I can update so it would always revert back anyway. It just gets messy with a lot of people modifying the cycle. I would however be open to one or two other people kind of taking ownership of the map cycles.

I'll volunteer for that, Mike.

It seems smooth most of the time, but some of us had some lag yesterday during the day that really cut into game play. Not sure what was causing it, but several of us suffered fromm it.
