leec 0 Posted July 9, 2003 I have a 1.4 celeron 512 ram and 768/768 Kilo BYTE not bit connection. I have had as many as 8 people on this server lag free. My question is what do you think is the maximum amount of people I could put on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skunk Monkey 0 Posted July 23, 2003 CPU depends entirley on map, a complex coop map has no chance even with 2 players, a simple CTF/DM you could get 12 but only if you reduce your graphics settings (and therefore your CPU load) If you ran your machine as a dedicated server with your 768 upload and a simple map you could probably get 16 people on it, would be good if you had a second PC to connect to it with, you would get better performace using that machine as a dedicated server and playing on a old 800Mhz or something you may have lying around. Remember when you host games your machine is doing 2 jobs, your normal "Client" and the server. and therefore CPU power is split between the 2. You'll find your graphics slow down before your players notice any lag. Its the host who suffers first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
