After much planning and with my new Windows Home Server setup complete, the Y-Corner Call of Duty 4 Server is now online! Now Y-Corner members can enjoy a COD 4 server of their own!
With the Y-Corner Call of Duty 4 Server up, I'm hoping to set up some fragging sessions from time to time. It'll especially be useful whenever the next Y-Corner V/LAN Party will be held.
Since this server has been only up for a short time and has not been fully tested to the max, there may be some unusual bugs. If you encounter a bug, please post about it in this thread so that I may look into the issue. If you are having connection problems or are using a blacklisted Call of Duty 4 version, please contact me via PM for specific connection instructions.
Connection instructions and detailed server information are listed below:

KNOWN ISSUES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Server is patched to the latest version of Call of Duty 4. Please make sure that
* PunkBuster must be enabled to play on the Y-Corner COD4 Server. This is done to prevent against cheating (lame, but some people do resort to it in online games
).* At times, PunkBuster may act a little bit funky and might sometimes kick players for no reason. If that happens, just re-connect.
* Since PunkBuster is enabled, it will automatically kick those with black-listed serial keys. You will need to use a legit or a non-blacklisted serial key to play on the Y-Corner COD4 server.
* Since this server has been only up for a short time and has not been fully tested, there may be some unusual bugs. If you encounter a bug, please post it in this thread so that I can work on getting it fixed.
