How many player does he allow to play on his server?
Is the server a stand alone computer?
Download the server program from Joe Boomz. www.ioncross.com to catch ceaters even when you sleep.

On what kind of computer does he run the server? Lots of memory or low on memory. What's the processor speed?

We need more information if we are trying to help you.

he runs on a laptop compaq 1500. I dont really know what kind of memory and speed, but it is very good. Its one computer and it allows up to 60 playaz, but the max he has seen at a time is 5. the server started 3 days ago. he also needs some advertizing.

ALL SYTEMS ARE OPEN and NOMADS invade everywhere


from your other post, so its modded. Extra Nomad Encounters = lag, no-one is cheating just the admin/onwer is trying something they shouldn't.

Plus the fact no Laptop can hope to host more than 32 players let alone 50. It needs serious horse power to host more than 34 players, get him to drop the player number limit.

Also you dont say what connection he has. FL Needs a good stable connection 1mbit each way ideally but not some home crap ADSL 256/512k or worse cable 128/512k. 348k up is the minimum for a decent server and down 768k.

for a decent server, you need a minimum 128k line, preferably an ADSL line, like your average 576k, or even a 2MB connection!

Set up a site for it, and see what happens!

Thanx guys, he is running a cable connection, pentium 4, 2.00 GHz and 244 megabytes of ram. He doesnt know how to set up a site and he is getting a 3500 dollar alienware computer in May. A new server called EUROPE 2 will start then.
