.....the old DNAGames server is back online under the pseudonym of WhatsInTheBox.

Keep it under your hat but feel free to go test it out.

Remote password is sol101

/me faints

Balls :) posted it to the wrong forum, there are four non-admins looking at it....will change the remote admin pass as soon as I see it empty :)

yay, any chance the server might come back (like it used to be)?

who knows :)

HAHA, idiot [:P]

Anyway, thanks a lot Styx, DNAGames was one of the best servers around. What happened, have you cut down bandwidth enough to bring it back?

wewt! I saw this coming near an hour before you posted about it! ESP.
Thanks for putting it back up! :>

have you cut down bandwidth enough to bring it back?
I moved the forum off the same machine as the server....and did a couple of other things that may allow me to fire the Soldat server back online for a while

I love you Styx.

Styx, you are a hard working little elf [:I] props to you man. The server is already very popular, even without the DNAGames label. I think you might want to bring passwording back, or custom map rotation. Something to keep the numbers down.

EDIT: When I say that, I mean in the future when (if?) you bring the server back on publicly.

man that was about the craziest and funniest game of soldat i ever had.

Great fun :P

Styx, I see you have added the DNAGames mappack into rotation...can you remove ctf_Fall please? It lags up for people with crappy computers [:-weepn]

K, rotation is now:

[code]ctf_Laos2
ctf_Voland
ctf_desert
ctf_cold_morning
ctf_Kampf
ctf_haze
ctf_Laos
ctf_mistlands
ctf_Viet
ctf_kampf2
ctf_bridge
ctf_B2b
ctf_Swasi
ctf_showdown
ctf_voland2
ctf_Run
ctf_B5b[/code]

I've dropped the server offline for a while as my ISP's having major bandwidth issues, our big phat pipe is maxing out and that's adding 200ms to the pings to the server (and making the forum noticably slow as well)

Should be all resolve within 7 days so the server will be back then.

yeah i noticed the server wasnt giving me the nice pings i had in the past.

and the forum is indeed really slow :(

tests are showing it back to normal at the moment, so I've fired the server back up.

Hmm. Call me crazy, but I'd like to see Grand_Diablo (when he returns) put together a new Dnagames map pack, preferably without a trace of my prior concieted maps. The quality is so poor and does not adequately depict Dnagames. Actually, it's my (powerless) demand that a new map pack be put into place. :P

/me concurs.
most of the SML maps are nice..would be great to play online.

As long as ctf_Cold_Morning and ctf_Haze stay in, I'm happy with a new map pack. [:)]

yup, whatever's good.
