ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

[WilsonMG]

My friend can't get in. He just crashes or times out during the long load time. Farthest he made it was the Client Briefing, but while the fuzzy grey map only lasted a few seconds for me it stayed that way for him. He can get to other servers just fine.

Historical accuracy is great, but these load times have got to go. Since so many of the squadrons are only different in name alone and not planes used, maybe just reduce them?

I think you're going to see a negative hit to server attendance unless it goes back to being similar to the way it was.

EDIT: Once my friend gave up and went to another server, I continued to test for a bit. I didn't even get off the ground. I normally have a smooth experience with 45-60 fps. I didn't have Fraps running, and I wasn't about to burn another 10 minutes waiting to load in a fourth time, but I could tell my frame rate was horrible because I couldn't even mouse look without constantly stuttering. My ping was also up from the usual low 30's to mid to high 40's.

I hadn't changed anything in my own settings and the last time I played was two nights ago on the SYN server.
