  • Mega Group Screenshot using DarkPlaces Dedicated

    Scar3crow says that DarkPlaces dedicated can support up to 255 clients connected simultaneously which might be the answer to an interesting idea.

    Something that was on the old to-do list (circa May 2005) was a group screenshot, something similar to this maybe: http://www.quakeone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=94

    Something I think would be cooler would be to set a date and time and invite any and everyone who wants to be involved to a massive group screenshot. This would certainly need capacity in excess of 32 players I would think.

    Who would want to be in a massive group screenshot of every Quake player -- past and present -- that we could get ahold of?

    If there is strong interest in this idea, I think we could find a server operator willing to setup a temporary server.

    (Although it would be interesting to see exactly how many clients could actually connect regardless of how big the server's bandwidth capacity is).

    Does doing a massive group screenshot on a server of as many Quake players as possible sound like an good idea?

      If we end up doing this, I'm thinking of asking Yugo first just because he is the best at yelling and using the F word. Heh. :d

        Yeah!! I would definetly wanna do it. We could all stack up into a like 200+ player pyramid.

        Would definetly take a LOT of cooperation, though, everyone would have to be serious.

        Tical can be at the top, he is the most elite player.

              That'd be funny, heh. Assuming this happens, if a few ppl used custom skins I doubt that'd be a problem. I'm not sure of all the features of DarkPlaces dedicated, so I couldn't tell you if that is supported on the server side.

                If I am available I'd definately join in. It just depends on when we plan to do this.

                I'll be at work from 12 to 5 (central ) tomorrow, and I think I have saturday and sunday off.

                  Quad, don't worry. This would have to planned at least a week in advance, maybe more.

                          interesting idea. I'd like to see how bad a server would load with all these people. Of course you know there will be 10 year old dipshits involved trying to screw shit up, so I hope you'd have admin rights : P
