Re: Large File Transfers - I need some advice

I haven't done that frequently enough to have much personal preference. What I can say is that an audio engineer friend of ours has been sending large files to us via https://wetransfer.com/. In addition to the "create a free account" and "create a pro account" there is also a &q...

Certainly looks like it intends to be possible. No way to know for sure without taking the time to attempt it and see where the limits or restrictions will be.

Re: Reconciliation with Hello Server

I assume the “fictitious if not malicious” is directed at me. Nope. Its "directed" (or at least acknowledging) those who advocated a "you should be us rather than them" mentality regarding these servers. You know that's not you, so no, there is no reason for you to think that th...

Re: Reconciliation with Hello Server

Regarding Hello and EA 117, there seems to be something going on, maybe pride, maybe distrust, maybe resentment, or other, I don’t know, what is preventing the EA 117 players from playing Hello (not to negate the players that already do play there). At least based on what I've seen, I certainly wou...

Sounds good. I've heard others who were using or recommending the dgVoodoo -related solution for various problems. Which is what the download you're linking to provides a subset of: It looks like they've taken the DirectX 8 wrapper DLL from dgVoodoo and provided a dgVoodoo.conf file for it to read, ...

      Server is going to show offline starting midnight, USA Eastern time, for some scheduled maintenance.

      No worries, and it should be back online tomorrow before noon, USA Eastern time.

      It's not tracking anything, at the moment. But you're right, that includes Battlefield 1942.

      bftracks turned off this year after twenty years. We're not sure yet whether GameTracker is going to follow them or not.

      I think that link is not equivalent, unfortunately. Agreed, at some point they changed what the download they were offering contained. Whether that corresponded to the URL change or not. What they have now is essentially "the actual Battlefield 1942 CD/DVD .ISO image" plus a keygen crack....

      Yeah, that's kind of how it was last time back in February 2022, too. The system you're on (or maybe even the ISP you're coming through) ends up using "low port numbers" as the source port for the UDP communication to the game server. The source port is what's referred to as an ephemeral p...
