I has top line set to 20, and next one set at 5, but peolpe said i was FULL. ??

About W95: you should consider switching to Windows NT, it has better network code and pings on your server will be lower for everyone

Quote from Woz :

They dropped support for Win 95, 98, ME, NT4 ages ago but just means no more patches etc. Costs little to host the files etc.

W2K is the next on the knife block for support.

AFAIK they're still supporting NT4, if you think about it, they kinda have to. Think how many businesses still run NT servers. In an office environment, if a computer does it's job and doesn't need to be changed, it doesn't get upgraded.

Max Guests = 18 (how many people can be on the server)
Max Real + A1 in race = 5 (how many people can race on the server -> if your server is full(means 18 racers on it), only 5 of them can drive)
Max Real + A1 per guest PC = 2 (how man cars can be "controlled" from one guest.)
Max Real + A1 on Host PC = 1 (same for the host, if it's not a dedicated)
Smoothness (packets per second) = 4

?? If server is full, Why doesnt 18 of them drive,??
If i change this to max guests 12
and MAX (real +A1) in race to 8

I should have 8 racers on before it gets full

Sorry to sound thick


Mick

There is a difference between "full server" and "full race".
Usually you should set the same value for both "max guests" and "max in race", unless you want to keep some spectator slots.
Note that guest means "someone who is on the server" can be either spectating or racing.

Then you will have 12 guys on the server, 8 racing, 4 spectating.
