New dedicated server release

[Kashopi]

Will the dedicated server be released before enough the client patch to update the servers?
I think it would be nice ... and necessary.

[DeXteRrBDN]

When first Alpha was released, Dedi server was released a bit sooner

[SamH]

No dedi server in today's release :( It's going to be a panic, come tomorrow!

[uttoro]

It would be very useful if dedi server would be released in the eveving, in order to prepare the servers for us :)

[Jandro_V10]

why scavier don't release the server today?? any surprise are waiting inside?? xD

[Sternendaal]

FFS,shut up about it. The dedicated server release will be released when Scawen & Co decided it's time to release it. Until then,STFU about it.

What means FFS & STFU ? :schwitz:

[zeugnimod]

"for ****'s sake" and "shut the **** up"

I personally would have chosen other words. :D

[Dygear]

Yea that's a good point, where the dedi client? And when are we getting a linux dedi server?

Tetchy! LOL

[viper-gt]

Tetchy! LOL


He has a point though..tomorow people will be saying "OH NOES TEH PATCH IS 1 SECOND LATE!!!1"

Jesus christ, all of you get over it, it will be out when it's out.

[detail]

Don't worry, both playable exe and dedi host will appear simultaneously, as usually.

[Eldanor]

He is not moaning about anything, it makes sense to release the dedi with time for the server providers to update it. Of course, they will release it "cuado les salga de los cojones", but that doesn't mean we can't ask about it.

It was only a question.

@Sterndaal: You need some rest I think...

there is a reason why people dont support linux


















no one uses it...*runs*

lamo!

Easy for you to say! If the two are released simultaneously, you'll be in and playing as soon as you've got the patch. I have 14 online servers to kill, a new one to read up on, configure and launch. They each need their own configuration files building... and all the nasty chicane wreckers to re-ban.. we don't know yet HOW they'll configure. Tomorrow's shaping up to be a big day in more than one way.. because until some of us have DONE the above, you're gonna have just one option.. playing OFFLINE, going up against your old buds the AIs.

Yes i have 25 servers to do exactly the same thing to... Looking at over an hour to update all of them.

But we'll get it sorted.. its all a waiting game i guess.

[tristancliffe]

Me hopes Scawen releases dedi an hour or two earlier. And that server hosters realise.

I think I'm going to put up a good number of additional BF1/Aston North servers, to cater for the initial demand. I think people will want to try out the BF1 and see what it's all about, and of course discover the new Aston configs. Then I think people will want to see how their old favourites handle with the new aero and tyre physics.

I'm looking forward to it.. and certainly not grumbling. A new server to play with.. can't wait!! (but I have to!) :thumb:

Gonna be doing the same thing :) Looks like we have a loooong day ahead of us before we can actually race :)

Wine does not emulate the Intel x86 processor. Windows applications that do not make system calls will run just as fast as on Windows (no more no less).

I think your opinion is not valid nowdays as there is countries that are using linux instead of windows in their schools and offices.

Geeks of course needed for special tasks, it is good. (me unemployed geek) :tilt:

So Wine is what? Excuse my ignorance. I thought Wine was a Windows emulator. Not x86.. Windows. If not Windows, then does it not emulate an environment that Windows runs in? How does Wine not emulate? I'm obviously no Linux guru.

Yes, and France didn't have a Millennium Bug policy.

It is JUST my opinion, but it's entirely based on tens of meetings with CIOs.. running Linux in mission-critical systems is an insurance minefield. Having an OS that is in any part authored and/or patched by people known only by names like "1337.hax0r" is irresponsible, business-wise. It's potentially quite something of a liability.

While it's true that most of my corporate experience has been in the US, rather than the UK, where Windows and genuine Unix are the preferred corporate and governmental OSs, it's also where I suspect subjects such as corporate liability are more topical. That correlation may indeed be significant.

WINE basically just reimplements all of the windows DLLs and stuff in linux, that way an x86 program written and compiled with the intent of needing windows components can run on linux.

The linux kernel isn't made by a bunch of unknown random people, it is managed by some of the best developers in the world.

And it's not like there are major companies out there that you can buy enterprise level linux solutions from :rolleyes:

[JTbo]

I did reply to Becky and she was commenting this thing from normal user side, not company stuff as that is quite different world, what works in hobby systems like linux box in corner is not necessarily good for corporate use and vice versa.

However I worked in company at 1998 that used linux servers instead of routers for sharing isdn line, it of course cached transferred data too, so it is very good for certain appliances. HP has been developing own unix/linux version, mac os is again one variant from subject, it is really quite far from being l33t ppl thing. There is already solutions that have embedded linux as OS, it really is not anymore just thing for geeks but coming really into markets.

There is companies that are building linux distros with same kind of resposibility and quality control as windows, maybe even better in some cases.

It would be wrong to say that it is just for geeks, it is however not yet really same level as windows but when I compare 1998 state and todays state, man it is really usable for ppl that even don't like to get hands dirty, nothing like back in 1998 when you really needed to be a geek to get that thing installed.

I know one book keeper that is using linux, she does barely know how to use computer but she chose Linux instead of windows, no problems at all.

Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com/) is considered one of good distros for beginner, there is also cd image available that you burn to cd-rom and then start your computer from cd-rom so you can test Linux without installing anything, they even send you cd-roms if you ask, free.
It is one interesting future things this Linux.

I'm not saying that linux would be ideal solution and that everyone should jump into it, just I'm trying to say that for some it works really well, it is already usable and not just geek thing, there is companies behind it, lot of.

Thanks for that :) (7am and I haven't slept yet.. maybe later! :thumb:)

You're the 2nd person to recommend Ubuntu to me. I have a spare unit here, and I think I'll give that a spin. Thanks :thumb:

[JTbo]

Sam, here is little info about Linux kernel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel)

There is also info how it is maintained, just give it a fair chance ;)

Yes, Ubuntu is easy to go with, but from my opinion Linux suits worse to windows power users, it is ok for servers, it is ok for beginners, but power users may get frustrated, just my experience :)

[martyn1989]

well reconfigering the server is going to be a job for 100's of people. The new aston north is gonna be good to have a go on so i am guessing all the servers that will be catering that will be full! a lot of setup configering i think aswell.

Hey, FYI in english "all" means eyebrows too. :really:

So whats the most logical time of releasing a patch after a dedi. is released? :scratchch

thanks for the heads up!

FLP Racing up and running AS6 :up:

[Frankmd]

The command /track=AS6 doesnt seem to work. You can specify Aston config 6 in the setup.cfg file though.

[hammer it]

the dedi will start with as2 but not with uf1 selected. It starts with all cars ok
Doesnt show up on master yet though
