Okay, to hell with trick-or-treating. I know what I'm doing tonight.

Playing Natural Selection - version 1.0 is dropping TONIGHT.

If you haven't heard of or seen it yet - do yourself a massive favour and go visit the site of quite possibly the best damn thing EVER to happen to the HL engine.

Yeah. I said "best EVER".

1) If you downloaded the 80MB off the front page, that's the Win32 server package. Please give me your IP. 😀 Client side ETA is 1800h EST.
2) Yeah, I've been noticing that.

I'm looking forward to this as well.

I'm suprised how much attention this game has gotten without any release whatsoever yet.


Hopefully its good
 
MFH: I'll PM you my IP and post over the OT board if I run a dedicated server tonight. I'm still having difficulties getting the Win32 server package and getting HLDS and a client to run together.

Thanks. *prepares to start official ATOT Natural Selection thread*

NS uses a metric assload of resources as a DS. Forget about running it and client simultaneously. Check the forums under the Server section to see what you'll need. The Linux one's a little lighter up I think, but not too much.

If I can, I might be mirroring the client & server files personally. I'll PM them to those who ask, because I'm not going to fux0r my personal connection with the ATOT effect. 😛

is this a mod or a standalone game using the HL engine?

i lost my HL cd and i miss all those mods 🙁

Downloading off fileplanet premium server, will upload it to my site and edit in a link in a few mins.

Edit: Uploading as we speak, will probably take a bit to upload all 92 or so MB tho, so the link probably won't work for 20mins to a half hour depending on what kind of speeds I can get. Here is the link even though it won't be up for a bit. Enjoy!

Oh, wonderful

I only like to host a server if I can play along with someone I know... and with only one computer, it looks like that's not happening. Maybe I'll leave one up occasionally, depending on how many servers it steals from CS. I'm sick and tired of 1000 useless CS servers that could be used to help other mods.
 
I am going to try hosting a dedicated server so some of you guys can (hopefully) try it out in a non laggy-as-all-hell environment w/ fellow ATOTers. Let me know if you can't connect or are having problems, I'm not sure exactly how our firewall is set up here so it may or may not work.

IP is 131.215.90.156:27015

Will leave it up for awhile, please post if you can't connect, it's very possible that i am behind a firewall and this might not work and I'd like to know if this is true.

Edit: Ok, it seems to be working. If you have any info on how to make some changes to settings and what commands I can use in the dedicated server window please let me know. I can't seem to find the appropriate *.cfg to change the max # of players or to add a password (so that only people from ATOT will use it).
 
getting it now...anyone got any non-laggy servers to play on? Supposedly the lag is caused by high CPU utilization and they're working on a fix.

Jes, I said that NS requires a helluva lot more system than CS or vanilla HL. 🙁

Time to build that Athlon 700 up again.

Once i figure out how to password protect it, use mine (IP above), from what people have said the lag hasn't been bad even with 24 on the server and I think I'm going to knock it down to 18 just to be safe. It's full right now though 🙁.
