60 player matches really possible?

Post by ToroDeFuego »

Hi all.
Just started the open beta for Shootmania yesterday. I've heard it's possible for up to 60 people to connect to the same server. Is this true? Another question: can other people see your custom skins and hear your custom horns? Lastly, what is the horn hotkey?
Thanks! Hope to see you all around!

Hi ! o/

Welcome to shootmania :)

Well, I'm not sure about the maximum player so I won't say dumb things. But yet, there's a server already up on Battle which welcomes 32 players... And it's already a bloody mess :D Still fun though. I guess that if the max player is not capped in the game, then it's the server owner's choice to set the maximum.

Well, I just checked and created a melee server with maximum player set to 200... :) Not sure if that would work but I guess it's not capped.

Concerning the skins and horns, yes, other people can see and hear them if first, you have a proper locator, second, if they haven't disabled the option to see other people skins. This option is or will be implemented soon, I don't remember, and it allows to disable other people skins. It's useful for tournaments, if some players fear to be annoyed by the other team skin color, etc.

You can see some Elite lobbies with a 50 players on it but people are dispatched between the lobby and multiple matches servers which are connected through the server controller.

As far as I know the cap is 255 players, but of course the server's computer and network has to be able to handle it.
