I'm performing a study that looks into the use of Satcoms for broadband access and in a meeting it was stated that Gaming wouldn't work because of the link latency. I've got a Satellite link emulator (running on FBSD) and I've been asked to check it out. So basically I've got to play some network games and see what happens ;-) I'm not a gamer (apart from a bit of Doom or Heretic) so my question. What games are there that run on FreeBSD that allow multiple participants to interact etc over a network? Can I set up Heretic for multiple people? If so, how? Does it all sit on a central server? many thanks Gavin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
