Also, now days 2gb memory is nothing heck, Windows 7 and Windows 10 alone from the factory box, eat about that much in memory lol. Like Ainz Ooal Gown said, also you should use Solid State Drives (SSD) hard drives, which will help with how fast your computer transfers data back and forth. From my experience and the many years of hosting different games, and using different computers and different operating systems, my favorite by far is Centos 7 which is a Linux based system.  luciferofhell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 jcsnider Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Unknown. There is no coded limit. I don't know what the max # that others have hit so far. It will really depend on the machine you're hosting the game with along with dozens of other factors. luciferofhell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 luciferofhell Posted April 30, 2019 Author Share Posted April 30, 2019 Can a 2 GB machine, 100 megs of internet, get at least 150 players? Oh, in the next update of the  creation system add put the eyes, hair, color. You are amazing! Thanks for making this engine available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for making this engine available.  You have to take in to account other aspects of the hosting machine and not just memory / internet speed, such a CPU, SSD and such. The better the machine the more players it will be able to host at a smooth rate. JC offers a good hosting solution which you can have a look at:   On your other note I don't think "creation system add put the eyes, hair, color" will be added to the core build, this is something that would need to be done when the source is released.

0 Aesthetic Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 using the basic hosting package that JC provides for intersect servers i was able to have about 80 online before the lag issues started and they werent even bad we're only talking a 10-20ms ping drop so im sure with the base package you could support around 100 and thats with nothing fancy. It also helps to optimize your server as much as possible, delete any items not in use, try to cut down on maps that wont be playable, ect.

Is it still up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 jcsnider Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 @placido: best route is to do your own stress test, gather some people and see how well the game runs for them. We cannot give you an exact answer or range based on simply server specs, or internet bandwidth, and even if we could the engine is getting better with each version so the number is only getting higher.
