DRH boot...what's up?

Post by Capt. Blackwood »

I think i just got booted from the Descent Retirement Home, Halycon server

IP: 192.168.1.100
Pilot: G. Blackwood


Ideas? Time was at about 9:30 PM. after checking the GameSpy list at 10:00 it was gone completely.

It was Descent Retirement Home X. :?

I'm still pretty new to the server tracking methods used for descent games...

I'm pretty sure there is a \"Server Op's\" forum.
It's never good to wake up in the shrubs naked, you either got way too drunk, or your azz is a werewolf.

Don't worry, we all did at first. I think I went something like 17-56 my first game online. :lol:

Be patient, Descent3 multiplayer is very different from other FPSs and the learning curve is steep at first; it takes a while, so be patient. You'll be making moves on people soon. 8)

I remember when i began TFC...man that was...embarrassing. This brings back those days.

12 Kills
81 deaths <<< I'm proud of that :P

I'll probably do this again, and again and again...till i get the hang of the controls... When i first played D3 i had to set the sensitivity to .75, now i feel like the twitch sensitivity isn't a bad idea...I'm at 1.4 and want to go higher...but i ain't cranking the slider all the way to the right just yet :P

By the way, if you ever need to give a serverop your IP, goto http://www.whatismyip.com Any IP starting with 192.168 is an internal LAN IP.

Good luck in future games!

I'm almost keyboard-less but i'm thinking of bringing in the SST Software to make this game kick ass...I know it's routing keyboard commands to the stick...but after reading on how to work the shift keys etc...i think i can eliminate the keyboard completely...given time :)
