Re: [hlds] Problems after update
Add another to the list, complaints last night of excess choke. I know thats normally viewed as client network issues, its possible it could be related to vacbeta client working as well as server issues? Definitely worse anyway whatevers causing it. On 7/8/05, Suck. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We run several servers from Windows Server 2003 as well, and we too are getting a lot of lag/choppiness. It appears that CS:S is hogging a lot more resources, and at erratic intervals, since the most recent patch. We were not running the VAC2 Beta on our servers, so I attribute it to that. Anyhow, our 24 player pubs are the worst hit, and the only way I could keep their resource usage at an acceptable level was to drop our tick rate down to 33 from 66. -Grant. ___ 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] Questions about sv_maxrate for DOD Server
You may want to either increase your maxrate setting or lower your maxupdate setting for DoD as network packets can get pretty big (300-400b) on a large server with the minimap on. Assuming that these settings are whats causing your 'performance issues'. Might pay to take a butchers at your servers CPU usage / FPS etc first. DoD servers can be quite resource savvy. - Ben On 08/07/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: you might try checking out Valve's generic tuning guide.

great, thank you! Well, it might be easier if you make a backup of your config and then 'exec nav.cfg' which you can get from my webspace here. http://www3.telus.net/~phuncky/nav.zip Once you do that you should automatically be in nav editing mode and a bunch of your binds will have changed.

[hlds] Timed bans in HLDS
Hi! This is my first post to this list having only eavesdropped up until now, so please bear with me if I go about it the wrong way. I'm one of the admins of a small CS 1.6 (HL1) server park and for some time we've been puzzled as to how certain time-banned players were able to play on our servers before their respective bans expired and using the same SteamID they used when getting banned. Last night I finally decided to try to have a look at what's going on and I noticed that only permanent bans are listed in the banned.cfg file. None of the timed bans were present. I've checked our server logs and all bans are executed as they should be (we're using banid time ID kick; writeid.) Now, the only logical conclusion I have for the missing presence of any timed bans is that they are stored in memory and automagically disappear, when the server is restarted. But on the other hand, that sounds a bit fantastic, since that would mean that nothing but permanent bans are enforced reliably then. I simply cannot believe this is so. Please help me out!

Subject: [hlds] Timed bans in HLDS
I've also noticed this, seems it has always been stored in memory. Which is kind-of silly to me as well, it's not like you can't remove the ban from the file when the ban-time has expired. Sometimes I ban people for a day, or week even. With those bans only being held in memory, I currently have to perm ban, then remove it when it's time. Really I'd like to know why it's been done this way for so long? Certainly there is a reason behind it, I just don't remember anyone saying what that reason is. Only thing I can think of is the timers causing lag or something along those lines, if the amount of timed bans became large... -Stoned Smurf AKA The Joint Chief ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
