Full House
Yesterday I saw a full house for the 1st time since I put up CG and MHM together. Each server had 10 players. This is common for each one at a time but I've only seen them both do it at the same time once and that was yesterday. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I will have posted in on both sides of the forum being here and on the MHM side. For now on, I'll just post in the the forum/website section next time.
~Peace~

Yes, I'm happy everytime I see many ppl on CG but then I can't play because of the lag !!!
Herm, I can't understand one thing. How it goes that even with a good ping I feel I'm playing in a complete marmelade.
You know when you're in a loop and you turn in the air during 3 or 4 seconds before respawning and at the end of a map, you have (to take an example) 8 frags and 11 deaths (19 events) and others (even BK with a very bad ping) 30 frags AND 35 deaths (65 events). Frustrating !!!
This is one thing I don't understand...???

Yo LePoLoo
I don't know why this happens. No one complains about it here at all. What is your connection over there? What is your ping?

My connection is DSL 8 Mb and my ping is usually about 180/200 but sometimes, we all reach 600/800 for a while and at these moments, many go to Kids...
Well... when it's not ok I stop but it's... like I said kinda frustrating !

Tonight
Tonight I saw a full house playing on MHM and 6 players on CG at the same time. That's 16 people going through 1 little 3mb connection. I checked the pings and they were all at about 600 ping. I don't know why they even try like that but they stayed. Maybe while you are playing on one server the other fills up. I will try something. I will reduce the max amount of packets a connection gets more and reduce max players on both servers. That should provide some ping relief for players. Try it out on Saturday afternoon and let me know. Later!

Adjustments
I already made some adjustments. Let me know what you think or if you can even tell. I saw the new 8 man limit full house the other night, That's 16 players and the average ping was just around low to mid 100's which is good enough I think. Better that than 600, that is for sure. I know there is some issue with certain connection types and there is even a way to block them too. Maybe I'll do that. I doubt he is using a ping cheat or anything being BK is a real CG fan and a long long time player. I'll try to find out how to block ping monsters from connecting and will update. I'll just drop the question out on a UT forum I know. Later!

I played on CG with 6 players on and I almost got no lag !!!! Even with a player who had a 1500 ping. This seems to be better Herm !!!
With about 10 or 15 points less at my own ping !
Good job Herm !!! (as usual !)
Thanks for us.

Shouldn't matter
When people connect and they need any file whether a map or a texture, it doesn't matter. The download site is seperate from the server. Someone could connect for the 1st time and need every single file and it will have no effect on players in the game because the downloads come from a web server located somewhere else in America and not from my server in Houston. Had the files come from my server, then yes, there would have been major lag but they don't even come from within 1,000 of the server.
