The Lag Bug Strikes - Alternatives
Currently I Run Icelance Server - At Peak Times We Normally See Around 30 People...
Up Until About 3 Weeks Ago It Was Running On XP Fine - But With Older Code: No Reports Of Player Ghosting AT ALL - Just Random Dc's In Zones With Higher Creature Populations
About 2 Weeks ago I Migrated It To Another Dedicated Linux Box In My House - With Slightly Less CPU and Ram (But Still Enough to Run It Smoothly)... - No Player Issues Whatsoever - But Due To Issues With Getting My Windows XP Box To Work With The Linux Box I Was Forced To Migrate Back To Xp After One Week. (To Get The Tools To Work I Would Have To Boot Mysql With Regular IP Settings - Then Go Into Tools And Change It To a 192.168.0.__ Number) - It Worked Once For About 2 Hours - After a Server Reset Mysql Will NEVER Leave the "refreshing" state until I remove the Internal IP I Assigned Mysql.... So That Was My Issue With Linux (newest Build btw)
I Migrated Back to The XP Box About a Week Ago... Ever Since I Have Had a High Frequency Of Player Ghosting... Its a Plague
-Im Running The Newest Build (I Was Not Before) That Is The ONLY Difference
So My Question To You Guys Is This...
*Smash My Head In Until I Get Linux Working Correctly (Which I Definatly Prefer Windows Over)..
*Use Windows Xp And Perhaps Someone Knows Possible Fixes (I Thought 1129 Fixed These Issues ???
*Use Server 2003 On The 2nd Box - Anyone Know If Server 2003 Has Player Ghosting Issues?????? - *****Really Want Input On This*****
