New DeathMatch Server up in TX - dm.quaketx.com

[Tremor]

Hey all,

I put a new Clan Ring Mod Deathmatch server up in the DFW area.

Address: dm.quaketx.com
Port: 26000

This is a proquake server running on Debian 5 x64.
Please add it to the server list.

It's currently hosted with rackspace, but I am not dead set on hosting it there. I had a couple of development servers sitting around and thought I would devote one of them to quake. I would appreciate it if the dm community would test it out and let me know what they think in terms of ping, stability, smoothness and so on.

I also added a few custom maps: Aerowalk, q1edge, ztdm3, q3dm6qw and so on.

Nice Tremor, that's awesome of you I know some of the DM3 players have expressed want in a Texas location since the hdz dm is not that great.

Best of luck, I'll be testing it out

[Tremor]

Cool man.
I want it to be good for everyone, and I know that's not always possible..if I get too many complaints, I might migrate hosts. I'll just have to wait on reports. =)

Seems solid. I ping 50 from chicago.

[Tremor]

Mag, thanks for testing. Do you ping similarly to other servers in TX?

[foq]

I ping about 100 to it from northeastern Ohio.

Pinging solid 50-60 from east coast USA, North Carolina. Glad to see those custom maps on there too.

Using dos ping since yayotexas seems to be down:

avg to dm.quaketx.com: 58
avg to yayotexas.quakeone.com: 47

In game though i recall it being the same. quaketx seems very smooth though, equally as yayo..

So, i'd say it works well.

[bta.monster]

Yeah, about a 10ms difference here too between yayo and quaketx in the cmd prompt. Not a huge deal though, they both seem fine.

[Tremor]

Hey.

Thanks Mark, Monster, and Magnus.
I appreciate the feedback. We will see how it goes.

Added to the Real Time Server browser

135 - 160 from England So a little better than shmack

[Tremor]

Thanks Efess, for adding it to the browser.

Mr Burns, very cool. I'm kinda surprised it can go as low as 130 for you.

[foq]

Wow that's pathetic... I ping 100 but Burnsy pings 130, and I'm not even crossing any oceans...

Damn I live in a shitass area for getting good pings to anywhere...

[Tremor]

I feel your pain, Foq. My ISP used to be Cox until Suddenlink bought them out. I live in Texas. Anywhere in Texas I pinged 30ms. Now, after the Suddenlink takeover, I find that they are routing me through chicago. I now ping 70-80 in Texas and 90-100 anywhere else.
