WOW server

[kesnut]

hi guys, i am looking to set-up a WOW server at work i tryed last week with no luck...
can u guys help me out...
thankz

I hosted one before.

It was no easy task.

The general upkeep of the server is also pretty troublesome and involved. Client crashes are frequent.

Have you made any progress?

Where exactly are you stuck?

[kesnut]

ok i have WDDG Multitool [skite2001]
and wow 1.5
i did all the setting they said...
and still no luck...

hmmm... I have been hosting a server on 256k/64k dsl for some time now. My only problem is bandwidth.

Can I post my server info here?

[TriniXaeno]

it is a bit of a grey area but go ahead.

I am curious to see how well it works under such a tight bandwidth situation.

create account : http://wowtnt.servegame.com:8080
server address: wowtnt.servegame.com
Client version: 1.10.0

Client Hack and necessary addons :http://www.trinihome.com/lester/downloads

XP rate is roughly 4 x what bl!zz server gives and money is nice. (recommended for low population servers)
Special events on weekends. Afghan fun realm with insane xp and modded items PVP events on weekends also. Rewards include gold and honor.

how many people using this at moment?

and what are the issues to look out for? I know most of these type of servers have issues of some sort.

a few spells dont work, not all quests are complete. if u on dialup, u will lag p2p (player to player) server lag not really noticable. If i get access to dedicated server in T&T that would be awesome, but of course i have no idea where i can get that kind of a solution or how much it gonna cost.

There are quite a few bugz, but i wouldnt say that it's that much to spoil the experience. Low population can make a player get lonely fast. The server is run on an opteron 3GHz CPU with dual channel XP 4000  2-2-2-6(1T) mushkin memory. Bandwidth is the only performance issue.

nice server!

pity bandwidth is so costly down here.

but you didn't say how many people are using it at present.

I use it sometimes , (ploi mojo!!) and it have a fair amount of COSTAATT players (I coulda swear them was in school for studies, not game)

Most I've seen online was about 10'ish

PS to mojo: do I need to upgrade my client? I've been running 1.80 with the 1.9 patch

[TriniXaeno]

what is the verdict Voyd?

does it run good?

[Netizen1]

it's not too bad, once men not on with high pings (read, from COSTAATT's computer labs) to lag the server

but I wish he had a list of the known issues on the wow page, so it'd save me buying into a skill ( or taking a quest ) that's busted

[mojo]

actually, i not aware of most of the bugz.... Just the ones that u guys report to bleach are the ones i try to fix. (requires programming in .net so it takes a while depending on my schedule) I usually change the welcome message when i fix something.
