Bill,

There are two subjects in your message - One is that everything stopped at 135. Can you get us the log files and configuration info (DirectX, Graphics cards, PhysX, XNA, OS and SP level, .Net) for your computers?

The other is your comment about trotting into the server room. Well, you shouldn't have to reboot computers between matches if that is what you meant, but you will have to push a button or two on the 5G server-software's GUI.

If that server-software GUI is being shown outside your server room, then I think you will be OK. If that GUI gets seen only in your server room, then you have a situation that doesn't match our typical set-up.

I can imagine us creating a simple "remote" GUI that could be used to control the server-software from across a LAN. It would take a few hours to create and would pay off in some situations, but we don't have that feature right now.

Let us know about the log and configuration info, and about whether your set-up is one that needs a remote GUI for 5th Gear's server-software.

Blake
