And in this case, one really CAN question why this is so. I remember when moving from Q3F/ETF (quake3/enemy territory based TeamFortress) to HL/SRC. I had 2x24 servers on ONE p4-3ghz and 4gb ram and while both pubs were full and packed with action, that ONE cpu would chew up ~85% cpu. Now, source is based on the old quake-sources (they call it quake 1.5 since they got them between ID did quake 1 and 2) and SURE, they've made all these nifty improvments, such as directx support and what not ON THE CLIENT, but the serverside seems to be from the RQ-era. There is NO justification for moving around a bunch of clients on the same .bsp-format, doing the same work with LESS entities compared to an hopelessly old infrastructure and eat 8 times the amount of resources.
And getting worse with each release. -The G On Tue, Jul 19, 2011 at 11:54 PM, Kyle Sanderson <[email protected]>wrote: > We've all in the same boat.
