Default I know its been addressed but

i know i knwo you've addressed this issue in many forms but i think it would be nice to have some sort of spanning because i'm running a p3 1.2ghz 256 ram and 25 out of 30 gig free
(i would say os but i had no diff in save time or speed actually 98 ran a bit smoother but anyway)
and saves take a min of 16 a ave of 30 and this is fully spawned
but the running speed isn't that bad (altho i ahven't had anyone but me)

my friend has a p4 900 with 256 ram xp and 10 out of 40 gig free and
saves take 121-340 seconds running speed is slow and this is mostly spawned
and i ahve unstable scripts and he just has bobsmart


but back to what my post was about

i think that someone from runuo.com should talk to the staff at google.com because they are the leading people in spanning software
and they are for the people and against the corporations(i just figure they are kinda likely to play along)

but ya i think maby you should rethink that abit maby make it optional or something

I've yet to ever see a P4 900.... :shock:


But yes, RAM would help. I have 1GB. My machine purrs.

System spanning is not gonna happen any time soon.

thats the thing if i wanted to take a top end system just to run a uo server
i could use any other server but this one the first things i read on it said it was fast enough you wont need any spanning and its not true because i've seen many people with top end computers complaining

but as i guessed this is a futile attempt

but the main thing i was trying to get across was how many small programs google supports and the fact that they are the leader in spanning software

also his computer is underclocked because it wasn't running stable with xp

They also have custom scripts that cause problems.

XP with only 256 is a big issue considering XP will use 60% of that. Take in account if you run your client on that machine and yeah you will have long saves.

If you don't want to believe me, thats just fine, but I would say this is an hardware issuel

oh i'm sorry i'm sue you know what your doing and i didn't mean to offend you but i'm still saying that if you can combine the speed of runuo with spanning it would be a beautiful thing

I think he means using multiple computers to host a single shard. I forgot what the name for doing that is.. Is it clustering? Hrmm.. At least that is how I interpreted it.

If this is what he means, I believe it has been asked many times. From what I remember, the answer was always no. They aren't going to make Runuo be able to run a single shard across multiple computers.

Plus it would be slower...

I can speak to almost 100% certainity that this will never happen. Know for a fact its been said the core would have to be rewrittne seeing as UO has a 2 year life span :-) because of UXO maybe 3 years.. I don't see that going to happen.

It would be slower because you wouldn't have 3.5 ghz computers running your shard. Would be some crap servers, just like OSI does LOL

The resources to do this would I think make it slower then running it on the fastest server you can get.
