[SP Demo Feedback and Discussion]

I really like it. Thanks to ZJJ who informed me that it's out.

I only have 2 problems with it :

1. it's too short I just started to enjoy it.

2. I didn't hear any sound on crosscom. I just saw a guy in top right corner, but i didn't hear him.

GRINers, thanks a lot for this Demo. It's easier to wait now.

[Winners for the General Awards, 2006]

Congratulations to all the winners !! and everyone on second place

[Post your rig, settings & what FPS you get]

CPU: AMD x2 4600+

RAM : 1024

Graphic card : Ati Radeon 1950Pro 256 PCI

Settings in GRAW2 : 1024*768, all on low or medium.

I'm getting like 10-20 FPS. It's really bad for me.

But in GRAW i can play with 1280*1024 with all on max, except details and i'm getting 25-50

[Win 2000 or XP?]

Some users didn't upgrade there computers for some years and i think that is the reason for using windows 2000.

When i was system administrator i actually prefer win 2k instead of win XP. you can run windows 2k on 166 MHz comp with 64 of RAM and it's not a problem. It's support active directory that most company use.

If i notice that some of mine friend has a old comp, i try to convince him to use win2k instead of winXP. I think it's always better that your system run smoother, instead that it looks nicer.

[RvA (Recon v Assault) ranks (on/off) ?]

How about an option to retain rank all the while in the server rather than resetting. Perhaps make the ranks a longer to achieve but allow them to carry over round to round and accumulate. This would promote and reward continual playing in the server and would give the "reward" that ranks offer.

As it is they are very quick to gain (but not quick enough to get the highest ranks) and are lost as soon as you start to break into the higher ranks. Instead of making everyone have access to the ranks, why not let them earn it by keeping ranks and allowing them to progress as they are in the server from match to match. I think I would find this much more rewarding than just starting with the highest rank right off the bat.

that would be great !!

[MP Demo Feedback + Discussion]

I really like the intro. I've watched it like 5 times already. Nice music, graphic.

I specially like the new game type.

I don't know what you guys did, but for me the performance is a lot worst the the beta version. I could play beta on 1280*1024 without problems, but now i can barely play it on 1024*768.

Anyway i hardly wait to see the whole game released, so i can drink some beers while playing it

[GRAW2 MP Demo due June 7th]

Yes, but still torrents are good to use with the legal demo version, the official ways to DL the demo will be clogged the coming days.

Anyone who got a torrent for the legal version?

As a demo user you are not allowed to distribute the software period.

So i can't upload the demo to our site and distribute it to our members?

[Tinker goes Technical!]

I have windows 2003 server as my primary system. For testing i'm using Vmware Server : http://www.vmware.com/products/server/ , which is free.

you can run every OS in vmware as long as you have enough of resources.

[Dual Channel RAM?]

Check this PDF : http://www.kingston.com/newtech/MKF_520DDRwhitepaper.pdf

On page 9 you will find Benchmark between normal and dual channel RAM. It's a bit old document, but there is good explanation.

[Tinker goes Technical!]

press F8 at startup (when you hear that comp is checking for CD/DVD/floppy) and choose start with command prompt.

[Tinker goes Technical!]

This are masks for network.

This basically means what kind on IPs are available for you in your network

255.255.255.0 - this means that you have 256 IPs available for you. Usually we use 192.168.1.* range. That zero at the end of the mask means that you will have first 3 numbers fixed, but for the last one you can use number from 0-255

for 255.255.0.0 you can use 65536 IPs. First 2 numbers are fixed, and you can change the last 2 numbers

[Tinker goes Technical!]

Don't do that. Just use a tool like Everest : http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html

[GRAW2 MP Demo due June 7th]

I'll try to put it on our 3 web servers.

15,F,1111

Hope this help

[Tinker goes Technical!]

2 is not 10, but it's 0010, 13 and 15 are ok. Always need to use 4 digits for hexadecimal. I hope i remember from school correctly

btw, try to update to acrobat reader 8, which works better and uses less resources

[Tinker goes Technical!]

I don't understand the question? It's normal to have more then one PDF opened at once.

Are you using Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat reader ?

[Tinker goes Technical!]

I would recommend that never run a windows wizard for creating networks.

It's a bit hard to locate the problem, since we do not know what kind of network settings are you using.

Are both PCs using the same gateway address ?

Can you ping the other computer?

Can you ping a HUB from both PCs?

I always do it like this.., but in most cases i use routers. First i configure a router/HUB(enable DHCP) and then set NIC to obtain IP automatically .

Then start CMD

and type ipconfig /release and then ipconfig /renew . If everything is ok it should work.

It's a bit different with wireless.

Hope it helps.

But i never tested it.

[Registration phase starts 11 Apr for MP beta test]

So I'm still confused. Where do I go to apply. I followed the link, but all I see is a news story about teh registration having begun. Nothing on how to actually apply?

Those who beta tested the GRAW pacth gets an invitation by mail.

Dont think that is true, I beta tested patches, but no email here.

Yea , same here.

[What Attracted You To Ghost Recon?]

1. great community

2. rush of adrenaline after i didn't play for some time and then got back in team vs team games. I really liked it when we played 16 vs 16 and at the end i was alone vs 5 players. My heart was really doing his job in those times.
