ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[Flashman]

Im not sure what is causing the bf110 engine issue. I upodated the servers copy of CloD cache but it made no difference.

Unfortunately I cannot recreate this offline, it works fine on the exact same mission run on my own test server (i.e. my computer). No idea whats causing it, hwoever as it appears to happen on some other servers as well I think it might be a patch issue. This mission was running with the earlier patch with no issues.

[Flashman]

I have solved the problem on my computer: I verified the game cache and it fixed it (it found faulty files and replaced them). to do this do the following:

Open steam, go to Library. Right click on CloD>properties>Local Files>Verify integrity of game cache.

this should repair your install and the bf110 now appears to work properly again.

[Flashman]

SOrry guys, it seems I spoke too soon. All verifying the install did was remove the last two patches. I have put them back on the server, however the bf110 is back to being broken again.

[Flashman]

We have rolled back our server to the 04214 patch as the latest beta deosn't appear to be stable as the server won't stay up for more than a few hours.

Hopefully we can have it working OK for tonight without any crashes.

Played last night on syndicate server for about 6 hrs, Very nice, very stable no crashes lotsa fun. For a while I forgot I couldnt climb above 20 000 ft, I forgave the mix bug and I didnt care about the poor sounds, I just lost myself in a fully enjoyable multiplayer experience.

There was about 20-25 people on the server continuously all through the session, but what I couldnt understand was only 3-5 people were on the vent server.

Whats wrong with you guys ? Being able to comunicate with other players adds so much to the game it doubles at least the fun you will get while on the server. Not to mention getting a heads up as to where the action is.

Even if you dont want to speak just listening in helps a lot.

So here what to do. DOWNLOAD VENTRILO.
Go to the syndicate homepage and just click the vent server on the right
enable push to talk
pick the suitable channel
Join in the fun,

Oh and finally thanks to all the players I have spoken to on vent, sorry for my noobish behavior and flying, just be gratefull I wasnt drunk.

I fly with my squaddies and we use our own comms, from my experience 4-5 people is maximum per channel, everything else will result in chaos unless pilots are disciplined.
I can't wait till real persistent online wars are created for CoD. The scripting gives us a lot of possibilities (too bad my time is limited, I used to be a C# dev ).

There is only one thing bothering me with SYN server - the $%&#!!#$% "head shake". We fly axis exclusively and the need (in 109) to constantly switch views between having no SA and having SA but no usable gun sight is hard enough, but the disorienting viewpoint changes on even modest G loads makes deflection shooting almost impossible.

I know It's supposed to simulate G load, but this is just silly.

Had great fun earlier in my 109,

Even more fun flying as a JU88 and he111 with my escort !

The only problem was my bombs didn't go off

Headshake should be off, we certainly have it set off (but who knows with this game at times?!?!?). I think the G effects are different from headshake but please don't quote me on that!

Yeah I agree! Getting on vent is where the fun is

I even made a nice "how to" guide for ventrilo here: http://syndicatesquadron.com/forum/s...rs-setup-guide..

@oddball - what do you mean by that scripting lol? Do you have some further details. As far as the socket thing it looks like it's allowing 255 connections at 10000kb. I figured that was normal. All the cpu cores only sit at about 8-10% usage with 35-40 players on. Is it network resources? Sorry for all the questions
