linux server client


(schnoog) #101

14 clanmates of mine and me are waiting for the linux server bins…
We decided to buy the game when those are available…maybe never

The dev-team or whoever is responsible for not releasing suitable linux server bins should realize that this behavior will kill the game.

So: RIP Brink

About time we see this tbh.

so any news? would be nice to see a SD guy giving a straight YES or NO on this issue


(McAfee) #106

You know the drill:

Silence, Silence, Silence, Silence, Surprise it’s available go download it now.

OR

Silence, Silence, Silence, Silence, Everybody gets tired of waiting and leaves. Then:
–“Surprise it’s available go download it now… Hello? Is anyone there? Hello?”

OR

Just Silence Silence, Everyone leaves and more Silence.

Not sure if this is new news but there is a server up claiming to run on Wine. “ziel100s Ballerburg”
Matches went smooth on it…

Yes, the win-server binaries running while that under Wine, but this is not a real solution for linux admins.

SD has to release real linux dedicated binaries, easy as it is.

well, i agree the server runs fine … but

  • sometimes i have to restart the server - maybe this has nothing todo with brink under wine. the server is still up - try to connect gives a timeout error…

  • the server i am using is a xeon quad-core with 8GB memory … i got high load through wine. no solution for most vservers …

  • administration is only possible through rcon via game… also no solution for linux admins :wink:

  • the Xvfb redirect of the console and/or installing x11-binaries on a server is also in most cases not a good idea.

  • not yet tested: in-game VOIP …

btw.: server called “Zurks Ballerburg” :slight_smile:

The restart issue seems to be a bug of brink which are other servers suffering from too.

Still cool you managed to have it running, though it cant compare to the binaries of course.

Sorry about the name mixed up.

Can you put refuel back on the voting list, pls? :slight_smile:

My solution about the bug is to restart the server every 12 hours… :frowning:
thx for the hint about refuel! i am new to brink and don’t know every map at this time :smiley:

the server runs now 24/7 . I also post news about the server on http://brink.zurk.org
Enjoy and have a good time on the server!

(McAfee) #118

I’m not playing this game again, until I can host my own linux dedicated server.

So, should I go ahead an uninstall the game, once and for all?


(Patriotqube) #119

it was promised before release!!!

Its about time to come clear and tell us if it ever will be there

So lets hear SD?

guess its the molyneux effect :frowning:
