See, that's what I was been talking about. Just a little hint what's going on like that, and I'm ok now.

Thanks for the tip, still doubt it will change anything as peps just wants to play on 128, not really test for get it working
Server hardware is Dual Xeon and process running with all 8 cores, 12GB memory and 1/1Gbit internet connection.
Every time server crashes, it gives a lot of debug information to get things working for next patch. So its not wasted time if you join and it happen to crash.

We are working alongside Tema on this.
And to clarify, as Chuc said we would love to have 64+ servers, the work we are doing now is focused on making our implementation both polished, and stable.

Yes its about rewriting addresses, only way to do it. Dunno about tema but im not doing it at runtime. Im using pre-patched .exe but its technically same thing.

Yeah I know that the DEV Team is working together with Tema, me and madcop provided the server
I talked alot to AncientMan concerning this stuff.
I just wanted to know what Soppa is working on.

Ok, maybe you guys should work together Tema already said that he might need some help.

Dont worry King Kong. EA earn a bigger profit if they manage to sell more servers and by limiting the player limit to 64 they accomplish that. PR developers on the other hand prioritise teamwork and the overall in game player experience.

@Elektro,
You are aware of the fact Bobby McFerrin committed suicide 4 years after he released that single?

64bit CrashTestDummies 128 test server by Soppa is up.
If we can get 7 guys on the server, and if we all join one squad, and the server does not crash, Soppa knows kung fu.
But if we can get 10 guys on the server, and make 10 squads, then Soppas kung fu is strong!
@Elektro,
It's a joke. Popular myth.
Many people think this is true. If I'm right, he's alive and performing today.

There is few good reasons for unofficial project but not gonna say em at here.
Notice also that this is 64 bit linux server while official is working on 32bit.
Server hardware is Dual Xeon and process running with all 8 cores, 12GB memory and 1/1Gbit internet connection.
Anyway, server should not crash anymore on hitting 64 limit, thats been fixed 22.02.2011.
Max squad limit is changed from 9 to 18 per side as well as squad size limit from 6 to 10.
When you make 10th squad, it could cause crash or other problems as its not been tested yet.
Server name has now also date which patch it has running.
64bit CrashTestDummies v22.02.2011 #7
It is really hard to get these things working if people are not willing to hit the limits.
Every time server crashes, it gives a lot of debug information to get things working for next patch. So its not wasted time if you join and it happen to crash.
In that case i am sorry for my stubbornness, If the server goes up tomorrow i will join, I hope this works and i would like to play soon, you should list these benefits on the server info and also make a post when server goes up to spread the word.
I would really enjoy if you put it up tomorrow, BTW. It would be easier for me if you choose all 4km or large open 2km maps(silent eagle, Iron eagle, fools road, kashan, operation archer, etc. to test on because my **** computer dies in areas with large amounts of people.
good luck

64bit linux server is now running with name "128 Sisu" with patch version number after.
I think you will find it if you just scroll list and look for 128 player servers.
feel free to use and test it. running on 126 mode as need still to double check some playerinput functions.

ok i asked soppa to switch from new 4km map with helos on it and switch to muttrah city, he allowed it and then there was a long wait, about 60 seconds before the server showed the next map and started loading.
When i loaded i was in the same squad as from the last map me and my friend. we switched sides correctly but were in a squad already with custom name "Crazy Pilots". I spawned got in a trans truck and the "CONNECTION PROBLEM"
KungFu?

yes thanks, im working on mapload issue. I noticed too that it took longer than normal.
we managed to get only 24 peps today but found out that squad size 10 works good.
I hope more peps will show up at weekend and we can hit that 64 limit.
