Default How Are The Servers?

I'm just curious as to how big, fast and how many people play on one server.

Server size can vary due to how many people play on them. A server that hosts 200+ people has to be fast and reliable but someone who is hosting a MiniLogin Server for themselves doesn't have to have the peaked system requirements. If you are going to run a huge server, I reccomend:

Pentium 4 1GHz
512MB Ram
16MB Video Card

If you don't have these requirements, just run your own MiniLogin server like I do or join one of the servers that are hosted by others.

Hope This Helps!!!

mine runs well on a P4 1.8 256 ram ... sometimes i use all the ram though .. so 512 would be better

after x mas i will be hosting it with a 1.8, 512 or 1024 ram

Its win98 and ME that have issues with large amounts of memory.

They recognize it, but its not always used efficiently, and extensibly large amts of memory will cause odd, unforseen crashes.

*shrug* Running my server off of a cable modem and on an amd k6-3 333mhz pc. Only lag issues I've heard of is people from Europe/Asia on dialup.
