Supreme Commander Multiplayer?

Postby Wii » Sun Mar 09, 2008 8:48 pm

I was just wondering if there were any good servers for it or if anyone wants to play sometime. (Just got it and am installing it now.)

mite give you a game mate although times zones may be an issue what with me being in the UK. but im up late most nights.

online is like a FPS game, games are hosted in rooms which is hosted on a persons PC. so whoever has the best processor in a bunch of friends usualy hosts the game. no dedicated servers.

Oh ok. I thought there were some dedicated servers. I am still learning about the game (I suck lol.) Trying to figure out why I keep getting these "Fatal Errors" too...hmm :-/

fatal errors? i trust you meet the minimum spec for the game?

when do the errors occur? are they random or do they happen when you do a certain thing?

I have an
AMD Athon x2 2.5ghz
3gbs RAM
320gb HD (with 200 open)
vista HP
eVGA 8800GT 512mb
I tried running as admin and that seemed to help...it seems when I move a mass # of units and a zoom in it crashes or sometimes it will stop working for 5+ seconds...odd. I'll look into it more. I just got the patch so I will try again.

PS it happens (usually) after an hour or more.

If the patch doesn't fix the crashes, I have read up and it seems that the VSYNC function may cause crashes similar to mine. I'll see how it goes but until then...history report :-/
