Map Editing Question
« on: March 4, 2003 11:17 pm CST »
I have a really important question.  How come everytime someone trys to join my server with my custom map, their Tribes crashes?  No.. It's not the RPGbutch5 problem.. it has to do with their Tribes.  Some people can connect though, I've asked a couple of people to test it out for me.. Some said that they could join, and others said their Tribes crashed.  Could this be because I have to many items, zones, spawnpoints... etc ?  Please help me out on this one.

::Edit:: It's up right now and will be for the rest of the night and morning "Dave's Custom Map".  If you could please try to connect, and tell me what the problem is.. then I would be appreciative  (LvL 4 admin is "shazbot")

There are rumors that if the map gets past a certain size, it will overload the buffers and crash..

But then again.. The computers a few years ago weren't as good as today's.

Probably the only people who could connect would be the people who have tweaked settings..

..Yeah, the only people that could connect where those with good computers and video cards...

Knyght, What I meant was, was it in Open GL..   Sorry, should have been a bit more specific.

eViL, you were probably the coolest but most misunderstood person in this community.. maybe the rest will find out how cool of a person you are some day, and don't get too mad at the people who dont understand you.. its their loss in the end.

It wasn't anything that could be justified as true or not true...

I have never made a map that does that. I was just stating rumors I heard, and a possible reason why.

I dont know for sure how true/untrue that subject is. I have a decent speed computer, but my 3d capabilities are pretty low on the best of days and I didnt have much trouble logging in.
Although, i DID get a touch of lag.

..Do ya think it would help if I removed a zone.. and some items?


I do have this one zone "Keldrin Graveyard" and it has a bunch of gravestones.. and other things added to it.  Maybe that's why player's Tribes crashes when they connect


I dunno though, I had two other people on the server... and it seemed to work fine.

I know for a fact too many textures connecting together in one spot will crash it..
