How long it takes for a Level 10 Ref ?

16gb RAM (I can get more)
Geforce GTX 560 TI

The most important thing for me is to know how many VMs my processor can handle

About 20, you will have to test it...
I'm not sure about those new 3970k Processors...
Yor RAM should be enough for up to 30 VMs.

About 9-10h. They say you can make about 2.5 Refs a day.

The 3970k can run more than 30 bots if you want, is a monster CPU. but you'll need a GPU with 2gb, or one that uses dedicated memory, like 650 Nvidia.

Put 32GB ram with winXP 512 ram.
Or 64GB ram with win7 1gb ram.

@ NHC: Did you think about changing the game window's size to decrease the CPU usage?
Like changing it to 340*320 in the game.cfg file?

This would be Height=340 ; Width=320 ;

Source: Another ref bots thread [I guess I may not link it here]
The author says that 340*320 is the smallest resolution possible.

Edit: Could you also make it delete the login.swf file automaticly?

[TrYkeRm4N]

With the minimize option, less resolution I think only can change the GPU needed memory for each machine, but is a nice idea .

Thing is that it happened on the first game.. lol So why would i buy it

The bot works very well to 90%, but sometimes he stops again by selecting the crawl icon...
And sometimes the answer select "No" at the question with the Battle Training :/

Fix it, and we can let the bots out of sight

Lol, the bot is supposed to select no at the question for Battle Training, it will join this tutorial manually after if you enabled it in the config...

I enable the Battle Training in the config dude, i said that the bot stops sometimes there...
but the statement with the icon selection is right or not?

Why do my bots always afk in 5v5 Coop vs AI?
Some1 got a solution???

I'm having trouble going past 18 VMs on one of my machines. I don't know why.

It's a 3730K
16GB Ram
500GB SSD for VMs
60GB SSD for Host OS (Windows 7)
GTX 670 Video

Slight overclock on Video, Ram, and Processor. Computer struggles past 18 VMs and hangs constantly after that. It doesn't crash, but hangs bad and moves so slow you can't really open another VM. The temps on the computer are good and it doesn't seem to be getting too hot....I know this is a lot of VMs already, but I know this machine is capable of more VMs as I have a twin to it with exactly same hardware (brand and all) except a 3500 Processor and it runs 20 without breaking a sweat...

Any ideas? I'm using the Same VM setup on both machines (the one from original post). I'm thinking maybe I have a bad ram stick or something, but usually that causes blue screen and I'm not getting that.

What I've already done to diagnose with no changes to the issue:
-Updated all drivers
-Updated Firmware on HDDs
-Removed Overclock from everything (no change)
-Changed SATA cables on both HDDs
-Turned up the fans on the case and GPU (it has 7)
-Messed with Paging file, increased, decreased, moved to another drive, etc.
-Removed anything that could hinder performance (Backgrounds, etc)

Would it be possible to add a new game mode for winning games ?

Because of 3vs.3 AI I've got a bad W/L% in my Acc ^^ (22-250 Lvl:20)

(Sorry for that bad english I'm from Germany)

 Spoiler

I thought about it and I think the best way to boost the W/L% is that both teams are in theyre base and do nothing at Twisted Treeline and after 15 Minutes the enemy Team start a surrender vote. The only big probelm I think is that you have to use VM's for both sides of the game... I think this would be possible ... Would be gread If you nhcoohrh add this featuer @ next patch.

Finally got it. I'm at 22 VMs now, with no problems. It was an issue with the firmware on the 60gb SSD. I updated the firmware and it immediately felt better.

I think I could go to more VMs with this setup, but I need more RAM. I have each VM at 512mb now and there are no problems (DON'T PUT IT THIS LOW IF YOU DON'T HAVE SSD!) but I still run out of ram for the machines + the host.
