Hi dustoff

I so not see your server. Under the name "unlimited war server"

I filtered on it and on "unlimited"

It does not show up.

What version of ArmA II are you using?

Can you post up your server config.

Kind Regards walker

Hi

Wonder if it is the space in hostname before " UNLIMTED WAR 24/7 server 100 mb "

May be comming up in Gamespy as null.

----------------------------------

OK Can see your server and logged on!

First thing

Mission has no Briefing. What is the story? What are people supposed to be doing? There are some markers on the Map but no explanation as to what they mean.

Second thing

I logged on it is at night, I have no NV, I cannot see a thing. I wonderend over to a car and got in as driver and started the engine so the light came on and spun it round untill I could see some vehicles and AI. I ejected so the engine and light stayed on.

I wondered around and jumped into vehicles fire a few rounds in the air and from the Stalins Organ. I walked around a little more.

Third Thing

The mission crashes to desk top. Looks like you need to test your mission.

Advice

Build an audience.

Make an Anouncement

Run a special event to draw in members.

Admin you server; other wise nasty people will take it over and give you a bad name.

Offer the server to a clan

Start out with standard missions eg Berzerk and DST CTF's a few coops.

To inroduce your mission

MAKE A TEST PLAN!

Create a forum or at the very least a forum post somewhere.

Test Test Test in SP and as each player. Then in MP with small groups of friends.

Make a briefing and maybe an offline Help page if the mission is complex like CTI or Evolution.

Introduce your new mission as a special limited public test first with ten then twenty then thirty

TELL PEOPLE THEY ARE BETA TESTING!

Once it is working anounce it.

Kind Regards walker

Was running the caf combat mission did not know it went in to night time or crashed to desktop as its a standard mission off from a download., looking for one that has briefing and is simple or will edit it and add a briefing. Tired the aas maps but no one could figure them out and just tk'd.

I refuse to be another server running evo and domination and know its going to be hard to get people in playing PVP games.

I was more worried becuse I got a lot of 5 second log in like they did not even make it to the load screen.

I just logged in and found the jeep with the lights on .

Its hard to admin 24/7 but I am on it most of the time running around by my self

loadin berzerk on it for now
