Lag Issues Resolved. (No, seriously!)

OMG WHICH PART ARE YOU NOT UNDERSTANDING?!
I AM SAYING THAT IF YOU WERE ON THE GAME SERVER YOU KNOW THE ONE RUNUO IS RUNNING ON AND SAY YOU NEEDED TO LOG INTO THE GAME WITH THE UO CLIENT YOU WOULD HAVE PROBLEMS DOING THAT WIT LINUX AND IT WOULD BE EASIER WITH WINDOWS. I cannot think of any easier way to explain this more simple than I already have.

You are an obvious troll and a waste of bandwidth. Thank you for playing, and you are now /ignored.

Oh no! You gunna ignore me! I am so hurt, really I am.

So you're saying that they should use the same operating system as the client (Windows) because that way you can run a server and login to it from the same machine?

That's really nonsensical. A server serves. There's no reason for a client to ever run on the server.

Now you might argue that RunUO is also a hobbiest's tool for messing around with private shards. In that light, RunUO on Windows is a wonderful thing. But you see, it's easy to port software from Linux to Windows. The other way around gets messy when you start using proprietary stuff like .NET.

if you feel linux is superior, by all means, make your own emulator and prove them wrong if it does work better!

Linux is superior. Just because the server daemons (the term is NOT emulator!) written for unix systems haven't been as complete a project as RunUO means nothing. Ryan et al have spent incredible amounts of time working on RunUO, Zippy on Razor, and so on. They have done a fantastic job. The only bad thing about it IMHO is their proprietary MS basis. I think it would be that much better with an open standards basis.

My criticism is not to say that RunUO isn't the best. Because it really is. I'm simply stating that Windows as a server is a poor choice. History has shown us this time and time again. I also concede to the fact that it isn't my choice to make. I'm simply expressing a viewpoint. Giving feedback. That sort of thing.

As for writing my own, or working on an existing project, I really don't care enough. As you said, RunUO works. I believe the admins and programmers here are more than competent enough to make an MS server work. Many people use MS as a server. It isn't the best choice, but it can be made to work, sure. I have my own projects to work on. I've got no interest development of player run UO or acquiring staff positions or power. I come here to play, to support the community, and to be helpful. A regular member of the community. I PVM, PVP, and interact with people. It's fun.

What if you had to log onto the game using the server with linux installed?
Yes, it would be a pain no?

My question is what kind of setup for the server do you have? I am a hardcore pc hardware nerd and I am just curious. I myself have the setup below only atm it is a 2500+

i've ran a web, file, and mail server for over 20 domains with 100+ users for a boggling array of scripting environments for apache. it's never once ran a graphical environment.

servers serve. they don't display. if you need to debug connections, you use another machine. say a client? if you're having connection issues unrelated to the client (firewall related, physical connection related) that is all solved/debugged via the console in linux rather easily.

Thank you for your opinion.

I can log on and play basically lag free.

Something must be working right.




Can we kill this lame thread already?

 

[Raoilin]

To all those many people who paged in throughout the problems to report to us that they knew the cause of the lag was the Clean Up Brittania barrels/system for a definate and undisputed fact, and then proceeded to argue with us when we told them it was not:

I told you so. Think twice about you who're talking to next time =)

Im prolly gonna get site banned for this but, WOW. POWERTRIP! ;/

You failed to read my entire post. Here's the important part you missed.

RunUO works. I believe the admins and programmers here are more than competent enough to make an MS server work. Many people use MS as a server. It isn't the best choice, but it can be made to work, sure.
