Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 dedicated server update released
I wanted to test the CS 1.6 SteamPipe Beta today. Unfortunately, the server browser is still spammed with thousand of fake servers, which seem all to be from very similar IPs. Only the port is different for most of them. They report being almost full, and there are only bots in those servers (which seem to stay spectator). 2012/8/10 Tuga aka mabaclu maba...@gmail.com Not a good idea...

Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 dedicated server update released
Wait few days. They will update the fake servers to latest engine and will spam again the servers list. I already see 40-50 fake servers for same real server, all having 18/21 or 19/22 or 20/23 players. Probably they can still spoof the number of connected players because the bots appear as being players. CS 1.6 does not have a separate column for bots and the number of bots is not subtracted from the total number of slots. Unlike in TF2, Valve can't blacklist the IPs, because these fake servers are hosted by players and almost all have dynamic IP.

Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 dedicated server update released
A HL1 server can force the players to execute the connect command or even you can reply with a redirect packet when they connect. So any kid can host 10 fake servers (usually using the names of other servers), all being almost full, and redirect the players to a real server. Some real servers have even hundreds of fake servers behind them, hosted by regular players, because this is a condition for getting administrative rights. Also some companies hosting game servers provide a service or support for hosting such fake servers. For example they provide the kits so the players can download and run the fake servers with only 2 clicks, or even they can host for free some fake servers if you buy a real server. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Dominik Friedrichs Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2012 9:00 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 dedicated server update released What is the purpose of these fake servers anyway?

Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 dedicated server update
It is fixed, but only in beta. The problem is that the fake servers won't dissapear because they will still redirect nosteam clients, so if they make the beta public then many players will complain that are not able to join servers. The solution is probably to change the protocol version again or something like this and to list only the servers that are using the latest version. In this way the players using Steam won't see the old/fake servers. New No Steam clients will be released in few days, but at least will be based on the latest version and redirection will be impossible, so the fake servers will become useless in time.

Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 Dedicated server update
This doesn't seem to apply for TFC and Opposing Forces. Running 7 TFC and 1 OP4 on a 2 DC Opteron 1,8Ghz. With the HLDS' spread across the cores -with- their own Affinity setting the cores have almost no load. With the HLDS' spread across the cores -w/o- their own Affinity setting the 1st core stresses 90-100% and the other 3 do nothing. Yes, I did update the HLDS' and they downloaded something (but that scrolled too fast to read via RDC).

So, does this make it move to a different processor/core, or make it multi threaded and split up the processing for each hlds among the processors?

RE: [hlds] Half-Life 1 Dedicated server update
All it does it stop the HLDS process from specifically picking Core 0, now it leaves it to windows. If you still see your hlds processes bunching up then you have a problem with the windows scheduler. - Alfred Chad wrote: So, does this make it move to a different processor/core, or make it multi threaded and split up the processing for each hlds among the processors?

Are you ever going to fix the bug in steam hlds where the graph only shows like 5 minutes of history and the option to change it does nothing? Are you aware of it? Is it not a bug?
