Mirror the 1.09 when it comes out

This is important! Please respond to this post ASAP!!!

Wow, that's a sweet deal. Actually, it's too good to be true. Literally. But I know that if I were in your place, I'd probably wind up turning the offer down, simply 'cause I can't stand spending money on the internet. And I'm a cheap bastard.

Oh, and it's nice to see you somewhere other than mIRC.

 

[Shuffle]

Ehh.. I'll believe it when I see it.
If I could have T3 for 7 cents a month, I'd have T five hundred and seventy six...

 

[Walan]

That is one unbelievable price for a server.

Hope it works out for you. I would multiplayer on a dedicated 24/7 server.

 

[hotdog003]

You can host with Sepwich if you want 500MBs free, but something tells me that you don't want *just* webspace.

 

[a441]

SRB2 is a huge CPU and memory hog, even without the renderer. Find out how much CPU and RAM would be available to it, but if the disk limit is as low as 125 MB, I doubt it'd be enough to work.

Hosting files on the web isn't an issue.

 

[LoganA]

SRB2 is a huge CPU and memory hog, even without the renderer.

Ahh, a441, don't you remember that Alam put CPU Sleep (aka give up CPU timeslice) commands in SRB2, and CPU usage droped about 25% and that was with the renderer. I'm sure Alam could tune it up some more 8)

 

[a441]

Yeah, but 1.099 isn't out yet.

 

[LoganA]

Yeah, but 1.099 isn't out yet.

yea, you are right, we have to wait till 1.09 comes out before we can do 1.099

 

[JTE]

Actually, he said 0.7$ a month. That's 70 cents, isn't it? That would kinda explain why he laughed at you.

 

[Monsteriestyn]

Well it better hold up to 32 people, because we all know how everyone will try to get in it.

 

[hotdog003]

It had better hold up to 32767 people if I understand this right...

 

[Ritz]

Uh, I think the offer already expired.

No server for you!

 

[hotdog003]

WTF?
Reminds me of the Cats and Dogs line at the baseball 'game'.
"No charge for you!"

 

[Sep]

Sepwich can host games and server load rarely goes over 20%, but AJ would have to talk to me directly if he wanted to set it up/how he would set it up.
