evilducky Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 This mod is actually really fun when you can get in and the server stays up! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MH6~SPARTA~ Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 This mod is actually really fun when you can get in and the server stays up! lol I just fixed the issue with not being able to load into servers (took about 30sec). Rocket (DayZ dev) was very happy So it should start to be a lot more stable here shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Rewrite the Hive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MH6~SPARTA~ Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) Rewrite the Hive? Ha, I may. The .NET backend I've setup is so much better than named pipes, and more secure as well (TCP connection to central SQL server, so individual game servers don't get SQL access). Also doesn't rely on third party applications running on the game server itself, it loads as an extension into ArmA and directly connects via TCP to the SQL server, so all the game server has to do is run the dedicated server with the -mod switch for the addon. Then it connects to the centralized SQL server and does what it needs to do. P.S. - The issue that made it so no one could load was about 2-3 typos in one function call.

I think that is deserving of a custom model in game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donziboy2 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Its not looking as sweet atm. One of the Aus servers got taken down due to the massive bandwidth used. 168Gb in one day.... Its not so forgiving on hardware either from what i'm reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I thought about that scenario and wondered if they would run out.. The map file they have is a very small chunk and that helps them, but they keep updating it forcing re-downloads. People are very impatient with the logins as well - they will connect, wait 30 seconds, and disconnect/reconnect immediately. Additionally, if you leave voice on, it creates a large amount of chatter - and given that you can't see peoples names, there is much more direct voice. Lastly, you have to tweak your Arma server.cfg to reduce bandwidth given. Since they are doing GUI HUD updates every 1-2 seconds, this keeps a steady stream of data. As for server performance - Domination was relentless on our servers when we were full. We tweaked our user count to like 35 max for that reason, and really had to watch how many objects were spawned in the world. Chernarus is a memory hog due to its size and object count (trees!), and some of the other maps are much more optimized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaiSan Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 What's with the "Waiting for Server Response" issue, been sitting on that for 10 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donziboy2 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Dai back out to the slot selection screen for the server and go back in. It hangs halfway sometimes and you can just try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilducky Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Those issues really depends on how many people are in the server at the time and where they are from. If you have 49 people of 50 *you making 50*, it will take some time cause its trying to set everything up and get everything synced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
