Yes, Davis and I will set a password - as soon as we get it and have the servers up and running, we'll post it somewhere. We will need to see about making a more formal post with all the server info and pw when we get all the kinks worked out so that we can ask bungie to sticky it.

BUNGIE - if you're following this thread, please pm me and let me know if you would be able to sticky a short (possibly locked) thread with our server info and pw if and when it / they become available. Thanks!

I can setup a server for daytime when aM Inspire's isn't up, anytime you need it, actually. I have a dedicated pc as a server in addition to my normal one. I also have a 2Mbps cable connection, if that helps.

Server specs:
P4 3.06 GHz
Asus s478 mobo w/SiS chipset
2x512 PC2700
Fatty 250GB Maxtor 7200rpm
ATi 9600XT

Not the fastest, but back when I used it to host 16 player games, it never lagged.

I think we should do CE. It needs revival. It is much less laggy than PC and the whole custom map thing is totally awesome. We should rotate maps, too. We can post in a thread 4 maps needed or so. This could be really great.

Maybe - two servers. One running CE, the other running PC. That way we could cater to everyone.

I would love to get CE, but my 28k connection aint agreeing with me :-(
If there was a CE lite, i could, i can go to 75 megs total, anything over 100 takes at least 1 day to complete, and 170 isnt a peice of drivers..... so, i want CE, because even with 28k, my ping should not be 2897, im sorry...... but go with CE, and link me to a bittorent type one if possible, because i find it faster and can start again anytime

Okay, on Halo CE there is 'THE MAW test server' running right now. It's on bloodgulch, so no need to dl a map. Just tell me how it works as far as lag and such.

OK, this looks like it is going to work. I second the motion that we have one Halo and one Halo CE server and that we vote on the map rotation & play types. Any CE maps that are included in the rotation should be posted on the new Map sticky that Bungie just made. Also if possible look into setting up Team Speak so we could talk and coordinate team tactics.

OK i went and tried The Maw test server... it would negotiate connection then be unabl to connect. and i went in a server... ordered it by pings at it gave me 200 ping... the lowest ping available.... the other like 8 ppl in there had between 33 and 70 ping

EDIT: and i love the Teamspeak idea too! lol

Maw Test Server 2 wil be up about 5:30 pm CST today - I'm setting up my Dedicated server to run on Halo CE as well - let me know how the lag compares to Davis's and any problems you guys might have. Once davis and I get everything straight, we'll be ready to rock and roll.

The Maw - Test Server 2

Is up and running - please check it out and have some fun! There is no pw, but Auto-TK ban is enabled. Most of FF is turned to 'shields only'.

BE SURE to post about how you liked or disliked it!!! (describe the lag and any spikes or anything).

I will probably take the server down sometime between 10pm and Midnight Central Daylight Time.

Hey, some people try and get onto the Maw test server in CE - I've forwarded and triggered the ports on the new router/hub, so you should be able to join. Again, tell me if you can't.

Cmon, people!

Why not make a server for those of us WITHOUT hCE?

Please...?

This server is what I was hoping for when I created that thread you saw a while back about the quality HaloPC MP, but I was hoping to be a part of it too, when it happened...

Dont leave me out! Im sure several other Maw frequenters would agree with me...

Oh, and Kudos to aM Inspire (for putting his very feasible plan into motion) and everybody else who supports this idea!

Ioniz - Davis and I are talking about setting up 2 servers - 1 on CE and 1 on Halo, so have hope! You won't be left out!!!

DAVIS - when I try to connect to your server (I can't btw), it attempts to connect through port 2419 - are you SURE you changed the port? for Halo CE

More than likely Davis will run a server on Halo and I will run one on CE since Davis has a better set-up than I do and CE has the better netcode.

Thanks for the praise, Ioniz... Maybe over the next few days I'll explain how I got the idea...

I WANT PPL ON MY CE SERVER - MORE THAN 3 TO TRY IT OUT!!! It'll be up till about 11pm CDT!

aM Inspire - I was on your server three times, got right in quickly and was running hogs arround. No problems. Someone else joined but my Comcast connection started acting up, so I didn't get a chance to test lag.

Sexy - keep diggin' you'll get it.

When any of you guys are in a server together. Do the following to test lag:

One guy runs at a steady pace across the map perpendicular to the other player. The other player tries to snipe with rifle or pistol. Or...

Have a hog demolision derby and see if you get any warping.

I have never been able to download CE maps from halomaps.org That seems to be the best option since Miffmeisters site went down but I can never get it to download. Anybody having the same problem or know what the problem may be?
