UT2004 Game + Dedicated Server on the same machine

[Tatt3]

Hey, I know UT2004 does not support multiple threads but I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow run a dedicated server and the game itself on the same box. That way I could make the most of both CPU cores. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks.

You should be able to. The dedicated server is a separate application, so I think it's possible.

Why don't you try it and see if it works?

Try starting the server, and give it an affinity for core1 using task manager, and then run the game, with affinity to core2

affinity settings or not, they should work fine, the only problem you may have is if you try to join your own server, they kinda have to be hosted on different ports for it to work on your own box
