gc8 977 Posted July 10, 2019 Hi When I join the server I'm running on my PC i get quite slow mission download time and sometimes the download even freezes for over 30 seconds and then continues. Is this normal? And is there possibility to make the download go faster? I'm using TADST to setup the server. I would think the download should go faster because it's same PC thx!

sarogahtyp 1108 Posted July 10, 2019 https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Startup_Parameters#Server_Options Quote -loadMissionToMemoryServer will load mission into memory on first client downloading it. Then it keeps it pre-processed pre-cached in memory for next clients, saving some server CPU cycles, I had good experience with this. Try it out even if the description does not fit perfect to your case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It got stuck again at 112 / 752 KB Maybe it's because I'm not downloading a PBO but the mission is as folder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dedmen 2706 Posted July 11, 2019 17 hours ago, gc8 said: Maybe it's because I'm not downloading a PBO but the mission is as folder? no you can't. The server packs the mission into a PBO on demand, and then sends you that packed version. 17 hours ago, gc8 said: even freezes for over 30 seconds and then continues Might be server's preInit scripts running. Some unscheduled stuff that blocks everything else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRPVP 69 Posted January 26, 2020 I run my server in a 1000 Mbps (upload and download) internet but mission download is quite slow. The file basic.cfg is configured for 50 mbps minSpeed and 100 mbps maxSpeed. I remember i joined a server some time ago and the 38 mb mission downloaded really fast, but i have no clue what they did to archieve that! I tried -loadMissionToMemory and joined many times the server deleting the cached mission on client, but no change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
