thank you for your help HITMAN82 - kool i used to live in BC too.. but then i moved to alberta
the problem seemd to go away also. what i did was increase the map restart and next map time to 20 seconds instead of 12 seconds.. i also disabled map voting...
not sure which did it, but so far it hasnt happend to me, and i have been idling in it all day.
my next problem is that i cant get ppl to stay in my server.. LOL
really want to fill it up so i can test its performance.. but not many ppl stay. the most ppl i have gottn into it was 10.. which includes me and my second computer idling in it..
there is virtuly no lag, and lots of ppl have vgood pings.. but as soon as it changes maps, i loose like 50% of the clients that were in it... if im lucky 3 or 4 will stay.. i have it all updated.. on latest patchs and all..
at the moment.. i have it with a 45 min time lim, 2 cft maps and the rest Conquest.. and most maps start out with 300-400 tickets. for CTF, 3 flag captures...
this is the order i have them in right now..
Dustbowl (CTF)
el alamein (conquest)
first light (CTF)
twin rivers (conquest)
bridge (conquest)
lostvillage nopara (conquest)
coastal hammer (conquest)
al nas (conquest)
cornered (conquest)
urban seige (conquest)
gazala (conquest)
is there specific map lists that ppl like? any suggestions on how i could fill it up?
also, do the modded DC 7 maps work with DC final? i see some modded maps for dc final but i dont know if they do it custom themselves or if they jus dl it from here..
i used to have some custom maps, but now dont because i updated to dc final and didnt know if they would work with it or not..
If any1 is interested in checking out my server, the IP is 69.41.253.48
