DCS World Multiplayer Server

[redfish]

Hello Guys,

 

Quick question, to run a multi-player server, does the client machine have to install all dcs modules or only just DCS World?

 

Also on the wiki http://en.wiki.eagle.ru/wiki/Dedicated_Server : - how relevant is "maxfps = 30;" and "render3D = false;" are these valid suggestions still?

 

Thanks

No mate you do not need all the modules to host a server.

 

Any client wanting to fly 'all' modules has to have bought them all to fly them but as the host you do not need to worry as you will not be flying as the host (hopefully)

 

With regards to the max fps etc... I'm not 100% sure I think this has changed now and there is a readme file somewhere that tells you more about this, I know we used to do this 'render3d=false' but I'm not sure if we still do....

 

I'm sure someone else will jump in soon to answer that one buddy!

 

Good luck

I have to imagine render = false is still pertinent otherwise server resources are funneled to graphics processing... As for max fps... I keep mine at 20 but I'm not sure if it helps.

I'm running a GTX 550Ti in my Hollo Pointe server - I don't want it spending cycles on video so I use render3D = False. The only issue with that is I can't login to the server and enter the mission because the screen is simply black -- can't see anything. I can still see any chat text and the Client slots, though - except for Combined Arms slots, those slots do not show up on the server unless CA is installed.

 

The max FPS is set to 60. I don't really have a comment as to that value.

 

All you need is DCS World for a server.
