' Wrote:I still think we take this service for granted sometimes. Without this server, I wouldn't be able to vent my RP ideas and characters into a community of usually like minded crazy folk.
Should the server come down, I would just go play my Xbox or use StumbleUpon, or invade a small country on Hearts of Iron II.
This server cannot be expected to run like a well run corporate one. This server uses a flawed game engine, sometimes I think its the GAME that crashes the server. Or Windows.
On that note, is it possible to use Linux for this game as a server? I hear its not possible client side, what about host side?
yes, you need the directplay workaround for wine, but you can run the server.
