ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

I don't really know the file, but you can change it by adding a line: mp_dotrange DOT 15 (setting it for 15km for instance) in your startup.cmd.

Iam interested in doing it client side so even off line you get this setting. In IL2 you could do it via the console.

hmm... i think the FM need a little rework:
I lost my half right wing, but i landed
(and was not very difficult, the final was tricky, but this should corrected )

10.10p.m. BST. Just got bounced by a Hurricane at 4000m. whilst escorting a group of Dorniers towards Hawkinge. Riddled me silly on his first pass whilst I had my pants round my ankle's. Decided to scarper back to France but he made a wide sweep and followed me.

I came upon a lone Wellington with engine trouble on the way back and decided to line him up for a squirt whereupon Mr. Hurricane put a few rounds through my canopy with a bang and then p.k'ed me on his next pass whilst I wobbled around in shock.

Don't know who he is but if he's reading this; a big ~S!~. A real pleasure to get whacked at a realistic altitude, in a realistic situation. Haven't been hit at this height on a public D/F server since Warclouds days. For you ATAG guys, it's looking really, really good.
New beta is working a treat and sounds are now coming into their own.

Thanks for all the hard work on your server guys. Really enjoying it.

Good time on ATAG today, too bad me and the rest of my squad lagged out and CTD'd at the end

I think I've figured out why.

60 players on the server, the server was only using around 2mbps of bandwidth. For the heck of it, I changed netspeed. 30 players rejoined and it was streaming around 8mbps. 4x the data being transferred for 1/2 the number of players. So you'd think the server was being limited by the setting.

But to go even further, I wonder if the same thing is happening to clients. I seriously suggest going into your conf.ini in the 1cSoft folder and doubling it to 20000. After rejoining, I barely got a single pause in 2 hours worth of play. That's on a laptop in a hotel

But I bet I'm on to something. Please try it.

I believe you can do the same Ivank, but I do not know the command.

@All - I've been messing around with netspeed through the conf.ini and have had some interesting results.

Could everyone change their netspeed line in the conf.ini to 20000 and tell me if your online performance is improved. Netspeed was definitely choking the server, it could very well be limiting clients as well.

speed=20000

Please let me know if this helps you.

Doubled the value from default 100000 to 200000 and I never got those annoying 3 - 4 second pauses that I suspect happened whenever a player spawned or respawned. Still get the micro stutters close to the ground, but I get those flying offline as well.
