Okay guys, if I got a server and you guys wanted to play it, what game/gamemode would you be interested in? I'm thinking about a GMOD sandbox server.

[QUOTE=NightmareX91;39361891]Tiramisu 2 needs more servers.[/QUOTE] That and Horizon, right?
[QUOTE=Se1f_Distruct;39364513]That and Horizon, right?[/QUOTE] Yep. Horizon definitely needs much more servers.
So, if I hosted a Horizon server, how many of you would play it?
[QUOTE=Bathtub;39366126]So, if I hosted a Horizon server, how many of you would play it?[/QUOTE] Depends on the content and the lag I get.
[QUOTE=NightmareX91;39366158]Depends on the content and the lag I get.[/QUOTE] People say that Elpis servers have close to no lag.
[QUOTE=Bathtub;39366167]People say that Elpis servers have close to no lag.[/QUOTE] Yes, I know. But I live in England, and my internet connection isn't necessarily the fastest.
[QUOTE=NightmareX91;39366180]Yes, I know. But I live in England, and my internet connection isn't necessarily the fastest.[/QUOTE] Ah, I understand. I was asking because I have never even heard of Horizon. What do you mean by content?
[QUOTE=Bathtub;39366188]Ah, I understand. I was asking because I have never even heard of Horizon. What do you mean by content?[/QUOTE] Tools and stuff.
I love elpis to death. I hate the lack of support with linux...
[QUOTE=Garrison;39366812]I hate the lack of support with linux...[/QUOTE] What are you referring to here?
[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;39366851]What are you referring to here?[/QUOTE] Gamemodes and addon support.
[QUOTE=Garrison;39367073]Gamemodes and addon support.[/QUOTE] Which gamemodes/addons?
[QUOTE=Garrison;39367073]Gamemodes and addon support.[/QUOTE] If I recall correctly, darksoul69 said that they'd fix the compatibility issues for you.
[QUOTE=Garrison;39367073]Gamemodes and addon support.[/QUOTE] That's a little too vague, we can usually help with most addons/gamemodes :)
[QUOTE=Banana Lord.;39367385]That's a little too vague, we can usually help with most addons/gamemodes :)[/QUOTE] You guys fix things?! Please PLEASE Marry Me. I'm looking to get glon amd underdone saving working with linux c:
garry's mod 13 does not use glon anymore [editline]26th January 2013[/editline] aka it's not just a linux problem
I was thinking about getting a test server from this thread some time in the future, but it is against the rules. However if I kept the server publicly open as a DM server while the SWEPS are being tested on there would that be OK?
[QUOTE=Soleeedus;39367834]garry's mod 13 does not use glon anymore [editline]26th January 2013[/editline] aka it's not just a linux problem[/QUOTE] Someone released the glon module for GM13.
[QUOTE=Soleeedus;39367834]garry's mod 13 does not use glon anymore [editline]26th January 2013[/editline] aka it's not just a linux problem[/QUOTE] GM13 underdone has a glon lua module.
ah, nevermind then

I can do a reduced rate if you're not intending on using it for anything other then testing (and you keep it passworded).
[QUOTE=Bathtub;39366188]Ah, I understand. I was asking because I have never even heard of Horizon. What do you mean by content?[/QUOTE] In that case, you should download it and play around with it on single player or a lan server first so you have an understanding and feel for it.

It could be quite useful for developers looking to test things on a hosted server if reasonably priced.

Would that be OK? I'm not asking for it now and I'm not even certain if we'll need it, but you know...

If you're just using it primarily for testing and not planning to seek out activity from players it kind-of defeats the purpose... That said, if your goal was in fact to get a server and keep it populated, I doubt Darksoul cares if you also happen to test SWEPs on it too.

The coder actually would periodically put up a listen server for me to join; however eventually he opened it up to a wider audience and we had a whole bunch of buddies (peaking at 8-10 at any given moment) from come on and fight with the SWEPS and the server started feeling like an actual server. However the coder frequently had to shut it down, it being a listen server. We were always eager to come on because it was and still is the only multiplayer environment we could ever test the weapons in. But yea that's what I'm going at. I want the server to be a gm_bigcity shootout while at the same time letting us test the SWEPs in an MP environment
