  • BF2 Local Server Help

    I am planning on making a BF2 movie with some friends and i really want to use battlerecorder and fraps to get different camera angles on them. However I know if my friends are gonna join me in filming we obviously will need to be on a server preferably without other players. Therefore i was concidering using a local server on my laptop where my friends could join in. However i really need to know how i can get them to join a local server with me?

    Also I think there is a tool to download which lets u all go on the same local server but i dont know the name so if anyone knows the name please can u tell me. :hmm:

    Thanks very much

    You sure your going to be able to host a game and use FRAPS on your laptop? Sounds like a mean feat to me. What specs you running?

      I have a wicked laptop alex98 its got nvidia geforce7300 and can run bf2 on high settings. Anyway i think the program is called Hamachi im not sure though. I wont run fraps on it i will be using battlerecorder in game and then recording from the battlerecorder demo with fraps. So is there a way to get my friends on the same local server/dedicated one????

        Graphics cards mean NOTHING when running a game server... and running it on a OS other than a Server OS is not really the way to go anyway.

        The major usage of a game server is CPU,RAM, and Bandwidth.

        Best thing to do is perhaps rent a Unranked server from a provider for like a month and do what you need to do and then cancel it.
        I sent you a PM to offer something to you as well..
