Because if it is, I am still having major lag issues (as were most of the people I was playing with earlier today. If not, then never-mind....but do we have any idea yet when this will be fixed? If the issue is that we have problems related to people attacking our servers with DDOS attacks...then maybe we need to make some of the servers "member only" and just give out the ip address to XI members. Just my 2 cents...I am no computer guru...so maybe there is a better solution...but it seems that most of the time...when this particular server is working well...it is usually full ....with admins needing to boot non-members anyway to make room for members.

If the server is half full it seems to run ok but starts lagging the more players that join. This has been brought to the attention of our upper echelons and they're currently looking into it. With any luck it's something easy to fix. It was alot of work to swap servers and we really don't need that again. Concerning the member only server, this is by no means a stupid idea but we rely on donations from non members to help run everything here. If we look at a member only server we will loose a portion of the cashflow that helps give us access to all we have here. Also we need them for potential recruitment. Keep an eye out on the forums for updates on this issue. cheers Edited September 23, 2014 by NITRO Tron and google 2 Awards

So if this is actually true when you say everyone on the server is getting lag at the same time this might be a mod issue with too much stuff going on when the server gets full. @@Sammy Can we do a test to make sure its not mod related and put on an older version of the mod just so we can check off one possible scenario off the list.

Or something else so there were easy to spot differences. Otherwise both teams look the same. I would have liked to have two versions in this mod.. axis and allies skins... but there wasnt room. Unfortunately the way the game engine works a simple skin change requires a whole new model. Which is why mods can never have camo guns. Would be better to just treat it like a pistols-only match with a forced loadout. Awards

I know ADMIN tried to reboot a number of times but the server kept crashing on them every time two or more people joined the server. I hope it is an easy repair because there are 30 or more people that rotate in from 12:00 noon to 1 0r 2 in the A.M. everyday. Awards
