ACG Post Scriptum Server

Post by Gromic » Thu Jul 26, 2018 6:15 pm

Please read any followup posts for updates, etc. as I'm not updating this post.

Maps:
Currently, the following maps have been installed and are loaded randomly:
  • Heelsum Double 01
    Heelsum Double 02
    Heelsum Single 01
    Heelsum Single 02
    Heelsum Single 03
    Heelsum Single 06
    Heelsum Single 07
    Oosterbeek Double 01
    Oosterbeek Double 02
    Oosterbeek Single 01
    Oosterbeek Single 02
    Oosterbeek Single 03
    Oosterbeek Single 06
    Oosterbeek Single 07
    Driel Double 01
    Driel Single 01
    Driel Single 02
    Driel Single 03
    Driel Single 06
    Driel Single 07
Team balancing:
Team balancing has been deactivated to allow you to train with your individual sections, without needing an enemy to actually be there. Want to learn how to become an efficient commander or squad leader? Now's your chance. Train bounding overwatch or other tactics with your squad without having fritz or tommy interfer? Your playground awaits.

Tournament mode:
As mentioned above, tournament mode has been activated. This levels the playing field by requiring you to have your graphics set to a minimum requirement. You are required to set foliage and shadows to at least medium if using custom settings OR use at least use the global medium setting. You won't be able to exploit low graphics settings to see the enemy hiding in the bushes over long distances. If your system doesn't meet the minimum graphics requirements then you'll see a popup window announcing it, along with the parameter that caused the error. Note this and send me a PM so I can you squared away.

Server uptime:
This server won't be running 24/7 even though I'd love to do nothing less. Currently I intend on having it run weekdays between 16 and 23 GMT and open end on weekends, starting Friday at 16 GMT and continuing on until Sunday night at 23 GMT.

Final words:
My intention of creating this server was based on the question; is there enough interest within ACG to warrant a dedicated server and secondly; my wish of having a central machine where you chaps can play together. Long periods of sorting out which server to join, and the inevitable sitting out of a spawn queue are now a thing of the past. Should the resources prove inadequate then we can always discuss something more premier. For now, I hope you enjoy.

P.S. (no pun intended) Server name and Password

Name: [ACG] PS Tournament
Password: Password to be disclosed should we hold an ACG internal event.

One last thing. Should you not see the server, in the server list during uptime hours, then the server may very well be empty. Check "show empty servers" in the server list, refresh the list and you should be good to go.

Cheers

Thank you Gromic!
It will be a great help to have organized gatherings.

Can't wait to stress test the server and make it crash :D

Sure, but we don't have to wait to organize anything atm. Just jump onto the server and see if the connection is okay (applies to everyone). I'm pulling the log file every hour or so but currently nobody has bothered at this stage. I'll leave it running overnight and through the weekend as I still have a bit of holiday time on my hands. Hopefully I'll be able to get some feedback before Monday comes *yuk*.

@Thaine - Sure thing bro, that's what both of us are here for :nice:

Cheers

Sounds fantastic, Grom, hats off to you :salute:

I'll be jumping on tonight, if only to check it is sound my end (sure there will be no issues). Any Able section blokes want to hop on then we can have an impromptu session. :nice:
