I have a game up now. Try joining it in the next few minutes and see if it works. I can't get the tracker games to show up at all on my other machines, so I've set it up on direct IP with address 69.138.165.25 (note that it's slightly different than last time) with the usual port 28342.

I just noticed somthing, there's a "stable release" link off of the D2-XL website, not right now, next time we should use that.

I think that's just the 1.6.57 build we used last time.

Not seeing it

[MechMantis]

Well, Default and I were playing a game on tracker... Standard port.

[Mars]

Joined but got a "consistancy" error

[CP5670]

ugh, not that again. I got four players in the game at once off different connections and it seemed to work fine on my end.

Anyway, if watisname's game is working, it's probably better to try that instead. Is it up right now?

[watsisname]

Yeah, it's up.  Mantis and I are in it now.

[Mars]

I can't see it, but... apparently everyone else can?
?

[MechMantis]

We're restarting. It was near-unplayable.

[CP5670]

From the looks of it, I think improve UDP/IP is still broken. I can't see his game at all now.

[Mars]

So I'm not the only one.

[watsisname]

Yeah, improving udp/ip quality seems to make the game invisible still, so I turned that back off and increased packets per second to 5.

CP:  WOuld you care to start another game, this time increasing packets/second.  Let's at least get all of us in the same game (Mars included).

[CP5670]

Increasing? I think the default is 10. I'll try with 15 or something though and see what happens.

[Mars]

Don't increase too high or things get screwy (imagine that :)

[Mars]

Consistancy error again

Maybe there's somthing wrong on my end

[CP5670]

I'm actually getting those consistency errors now too, even when hosting.

[Mars]

And the stable build page is down.

[watsisname]

Ok, Mantis and I did a quick test, and it turns out that increasing the packets per second will dramatically help against the lag issue we had earlier.  So from now on, heave packets per second at at least 5.

[Mars]

Uh... the default is ten. Five is way too low. The stable builds page is back up! Everyone download it.

[watsisname]

Curious... the default for me was set to 2. 

[Mars]

Let's all get the stable build and we'll see how this works out.
