Guest Erick20 Posted February 13, 2001 Has anyone else been noticing this lately, or is it just me? For some reason or another, I can't seem to ping a server under 1500 since yesterday. Also... I'm a long time doom player, but I'm relatively new to the internet dooming. (less than 6 months). Can anyone give me some details on starting my own Doom server via CSDoom? I have a dedicated T3 line to run it on, & my machine is running at 450mhz. thanks everyone! 0 Share this post Link to post
Biffy Posted February 13, 2001 I played successfully last night on several servers so the high ping may be a (hopefully) temporary condition with your ISP. CSDoom servers are started with doomsv.exe. I have some batch files set up for my favorite wads, here's an example: d:\ cd \csserver doomsv -file ikbrowny.wad -maxclients 5 +exec ikbrowny.cfg +set dmflags 1158 -port 10027 Most of that stuff is optional. Here's the contents of the ikbrowny.cfg file: addmap map01 fraglimit 25 timelimit 08 set hostname "Rarefiles.tripod.com" rcon_password yourpass I'm using that hostname because my friend Falconer has a web page there and hosts the wads for download. That way, players can see where to get the wad, then come back to play. 0 Share this post Link to post
fodders Posted February 13, 2001 Hi Biff, not often we see you around these parts, having fresh straw put down at your place? :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Biffy Posted February 13, 2001 Hi FOD. Yeah, I just started to check in here since I saw how SkullTag was coming along. Already got set up to edit. :) Heh, this is one more thing I can do at work on unofficial breaks, to cheer me up! See ya. 0 Share this post Link to post
