Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error
I didn't use a shortcut, I simply ran cmd.exe, AKA Windows Command Processor. AFAIK, it's always been this way back from the start. Is there anyone at Valve that remembers why it was done this way? I'm guessing it has to do with the way it updates the status at the first line of the window, and scrolls the output up the windows. shrug you'll notice the shortcut you use to get that command prompt is called command prompt ;) And yeah, it does open in a brand new window of its own for whatever reason. Kind of strange, I see no reason to open a new console when it's already running in one. Oh well. That's valve for you. OK, boys and girls, once and for all. drum roll. If you start hlds.exe from a Command Shell under Win9x, WinXP, or Win2000, it will open it's own console and run in that. The command shell you start it from does this: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. P:\hlds -console P:\ You are back at the ...um...so, can I call this a DOS prompt? Or is it more correctly the command shell prompt? Whatever you want to call it, you are there and hlds is running in it's own console/shell. -- Clayton Macleod ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error
I don't see any technical reasons for doing so, but they must have a reason. Controlling what gets drawn/printed at which location in the window is entirely under your control regardless of whether or not you spawn a new window. Who knows why they've done it this way, but maybe someone there will tell us. shrug On 7/2/05, Ook [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I didn't use a shortcut, I simply ran cmd.exe, AKA Windows Command Processor.

Re: [hlds] RE: [hlds_linux] VAC2 Beta information
Out of curiosity, will this upcomming release also herald the passing of the VSM aka VAC1?

[hlds] Counter Strike Server Lag
Server set up. Hardware - ridiculously powerful Network Connection/bandwidth - vast CS Source Server - Completely upto date. Players - 28 Add ons - Mani Admin version 1.1.0p - Matti's Event scripts VAC2 Beta is NOT enabled. Server IP : 216.89.93.99:27016 In the last few days to a week now we've been getting some bizarre lag occurring on our server. You basically get a bit of a very regular two-step effect. Moving foward you get two steps forward and then one back giving a somewhat sickening flicker. This has been reported by players on our server from across the globe (we have clan members in the UK, France, Canada and the US). Network and hardware issues have been completely ruled out and are beyond reproach. Nothing has been added or removed from the server and no settings have been changed on the server in the last couple of weeks. So what I'm wandering is, is anyone else seen anything like this? Could the server be being affected by something external? Any thoughts on what to do to try to diagnose and fix the problem?
