Yes, I am thinking on setting up a Doom tournament, blame Hiryuu for this but I felt that the old classics needs to be played again. I hadn't set in stone which engine we are going to use. But it seems to be the latest version of Doom legacy. Non-beta. Which you can download here. You need the Doom2.wad. As that's i'm going to use. I want to use Doom2's bells and whistles, but I guess we could do a few matches in Doom. As I said, nothing is set in stone. I try to setup the server on my own, but I guess someone else could setup the server incase I run into problems, but I want to have a few rules setup. Such as exits not being enabled. (to be honest I abused this fact that Hiryuu didn't shut this off XD). The points system is little undecided. Should we like do an ACS like system, like that even if you win with 1547 frags or 8 frags, you still get 10 points. But at the same time i'm little afraid that someone would get alot of points and then people would jump pissed off and wouldn't even play due to it being hard to catchup. Maybe we should do a big match once a week, and the one who have the most wins for the day wins the match. We don't really need to start a big tournaments, as long we play doom once in a awhile and maybe try out new nice deathmatch PWAD's... one good nice thing with Doom legacy is, if someone don't have a certain PWAD, he will get that PWAD. >.> |

Most of the activity originated in IRC (no, not #acmlm) when we tried this and we had upwards of 5 or 6 people going at it while I served on a 40K/sec UL line. Little if any lag except for machingun fire, which wasn't much of a problem. The only problem is, if there's a slow connect, or someone's DLing AND playing, then it bogs the connection way down and (in my case) may cause the server to crash. But considering a standard 384k UL is enough to tolerate 5 or 6 or more people at any given time...that's a good sign. |

I'm in as long as my PC doesn't crash. It has a funny habit of randomly crashing (hard crash, i.e. the fan has to start up again and all) on random occasions when I get fragged. I THINK it was due to CD audio for some reason, and co-op went fine the other night, so... Yeah. |

Who has the best speed up? I have 1mbit. That is, 100k/sec usually. And meh, I think tournament sounds bad. Can't we just play a few times and have fun? |

I have 8mbit so it must be 800k/second. Yeah, I also think that we should play for fun. |

You can forget being a server Trapster, Trapster probably have worse Ping than I do. So... either it would be better off I was a server or Hiryuu. Hiryuu could be better off for thoose living in USA, since there is some ping time added when it goes over the Atlantic ocean. I plan to start the first match midnight today, or rather 18:00 "board" time. |

I'd be up to it, but where can I find this Doom2.wad thingy? | |||

Hiryuu has less upload though. I have an 80kb upload rate which is quite good, but at the same time my connection can sometimes be unstable. Sometimes. As long as the person has a smooth connection/PC, they should be fine. |

...eh, keep in mind. Doom2.wad is copyrighted. Spreading it is like spreading warez. My version of Doom2 is actually legal, so I got it from the real game. Yes, it is open source. But only the "engine" and not the game's level's graphics and such. Now, if my sister could move so I could start a server on the better computer. ; Server open on IP 81.225.80.156, I just hope bad ping won't be a big problem but... oh well. ^^; (edited by Kitten Yiffer on 02-05-05 11:04 PM) (edited by Kitten Yiffer on 02-05-05 11:42 PM) |

*deletes wad link* As Kitten Yiffer said, the wads themselves are copyrighted. There's plenty of people you could talk to about getting them. |

Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer I heard from a friend that 0.5mbit connections are more stable than other connections. Is that true? |

I think it depends more on the ISP than anything. Server down for now, there dosen't seem to be enough intrest for now. I guess I should have set a date earlier. Althought I may start it again later tonight, if there is intrest... (edited by Kitten Yiffer on 02-06-05 01:29 AM) |

Originally posted by Kitten Yiffer Yeah, seeing how being 2 people doesn't give much action. |

Usually you should just set a time rather than say "server's up/down" at random times. If nobody's interested in playing at a certain time, well... | |||

Everyone has to make sure they have the CORRECT WAD though. Our D2 WAD is 14,604,584 bytes, I believe. |
