New NS Server?

Stevo · Posted: Tue Jul 06, 2004 6:48 pm Post subject: New NS Server?

I might be converting my HLRally server (TV9) to a NS server. We have two NS server already that get plenty of traffic, maybe we need one more. HLRally get's barely any traffic at all and we have two servers. I thought switching to NS, which is the game I play mostly now, would be better.

The main reason I want to do this is because the HLRally server takes very little work for me to maintain and that's pretty boring.

I thought it would be fun to run a NS server which I can add mods to and stuff.

Here's how it would be:
Classic maps only
12 or 16 slots

Some custom maps
A few other addons

I already have all the files uploaded and stuff so when I do decide to convert it, it shouldn't take too long to get it up and running (but who knows...). So should I go for it?

Is 12 slots good or should I go for 16?

28 slots!!!

or as many as the server can handle +1 for supporters (unless you can set up hidden slots in ns like you can in DoD, but I have never seen that).

AMX does the hidden slot thing, so it works on any game.

anything over 16 becomes hard to deal with. 16 is plenty.

16 should be good. 12 is to few and once you hit 18-20 aliens begin getting a hard job. (slower res flow)

I'm working on getting the server up right now. The server might be down a lot tonight while I fix errors and stuff. I'll post back when it's working how it should.

I love my ns

btw, is there any chance you might be adding a couple siege maps?

They are fun for a change of strategy techniques...
