Some questions about creating a private game for my friends

Postby Ambrosios Carabine » Mon Aug 30, 2010 6:16 am

Hi all! :P

I´m just beggining to play this game, and I´ve got a few questions about the Multiplayer settings: which are the most common "Minimum/Maximum ping" values? What is the "Max rate" and how can I set it properly, according to a (for example) 10-people-game? What does "Pure server" mean?

I´ve learned how to port forward my router, and I think it´ll work, but I´m not sure about one thing: once I´ve created the game and sent my ip adress to my friends, what should they do in order to join the game?

Thank you very much! And sorry for my bad English... :oops:
I thing you´re doing a really great work with this site!!

Those filter the players who are joining. For instance, if you set max ping to 200, anybody with a high ping will not be able to join your servers. If you are playing with your friends, then I wouldn't set those.

Pure server means that only clients with the same pk3 files as the server are allowed to connect. So if the server has SG 1.0 with no additions, clients will not be able to load their custom maps,skins, models etc. This is generally a good idea to turn on

in the console (~) they will need to type:
/connect <ipaddress>

Hope this helps! And welcome to the forums,
