ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

Yes it was strange, the other two guys were actually in the game but I was in the process of joining when it happened.

Thanks for the help.

Server 1 (Axis vs Allies) will be running the beta patch as soon as it's downloaded.

Who's ready for large formations of bombers without crashing?

[Blackdog_kt]

I think i'm sufficiently tempted to give it a shot, even though i'll probably be dying horribly most of the time.

Haven't flown much in quite a while due to real life commitments, but it will be good to see the corrected Blenheim CEM/FM, and maybe a working gyro on the Ju88 and fixed bombsight code for the bombers in general. The latter two are not mentioned in the patch notes, i'm just keeping my fingers crossed.

Count me in

Have you guys got a test of multiple bombers yet? How many can you go up to now before CTD?

Were these Ju-88s, He-111s, or Blenheims? I always suspected the Blennies require more processing, and more bugs, so crashed faster. Can't wait to fly a Blennie formation!

88's, 111's, Stukas, and 110's

Btw, blennys could do some formation flying before the patch. I've been told they fly quite nice now!

On another note:

As of right now custom skins are turned on the server. That means not only the default skins, but all the wonderful community made skins can be used on the server.

With that said, loading of custom skins will cause long pauses and stuttering at times, but you have the choice as a client to turn on / off custom skins.

By going to your in game settings, then under the network tab, there's a box you can enable to allow/disallow custom skins. If you feel the stuttering/pausing is too much you can simply shut them off.

Personally I think we've gone on too long without having the ability to see some user made skins, so with the players having the ability to allow it or not, the extra stuttering/pausing to have some pretty skins is totally up to you guys.
