If you switch to Graw2 get in touch with me on xfire. I do not plan on buying this game.

I have just updated the RavenShield server with more new maps. All have been set up to stream from the file server. We can start off with COOP until we get more than 8 players...then we can switch to Adversarial.

BTW..one map has 96 Tangos!

I do not have this game. I may get it sometime. Is there anywhere I can download a trail version of this to try out?

Hey SD, the game is 5+ years old now and is in most baragin bins. I am not sure if the Demos on this page still are actively linked. But check it out.

Balti...you probably will want to go ahead and shut down the R63 server. Looks like the GRAW2 server can replace it, seeing that it was full on the R63 Retro Night and it will definately use the extra resources (CPU/RAM) from the box. (Graw2 was hitting the box for 90+ CPU usage and over 400mb RAM, 8x-10x more than any other server)

The Raven Shield server was getting lagged out to bad too play on. I was on from 8 PM till 10:30 PM play testing all the new maps and had only one walk in that left when the lag got real bad.

Unless I hear otherwise I am going to stop play testing and uploading new custom maps for streaming every week, as it consumes alot of time and bandwidth.

*UPDATE* I went ahead and shut the server down for the night. At 10:40 PM no one had come on to TS to play and the server was getting lagged out so bad by the GRAW2 server that I couldn't even test any more maps.

Sorry you spent 3+ hours uploading maps for everyone to play and one person showed up....that really stinks...

The GRAW2 server usage can be found a little in this forum thread:

I haven't seen anything in there on fixes for it...will look more later.
