Re: [hlds] Banlist too big? Causing crashes?
Can't you remove the exec banned.cfg from the server.cfg (loads every map) and put it into autoexec.cfg (loads every server reset). Then all the banned users are put into the memory of the server and it doesn't have to go through each one again every time it changes.

Re: [hlds] Banlist too big? Causing crashes?
sounds like quite the banlist, hehe. Do you actually notice that much recurring troublemaking? I find that after a couple weeks or a month or two of being banned that those people never return anyways, but I suppose there could be some fools that would just keep on coming back again and again even after being banned for a few weeks and having that ban removed...

re: [hlds] Teleport Lag on Bigger Servers Since Last Update...
I seem to having some luck restarting the game servers on a daily basis. Saturday morning one of our guys complained that he was the only person playing yet was warping all over the place. I rebooted the Source game servers, and three of us jumped on and things felt fairly good to me. I know the server was loaded pretty heavy Friday night, so perhaps a memory leak? If you notice allot of warping/lag try shutting the game server down and restarting after 30 seconds or so. and lets see if this helps. Sell on Yahoo! Auctions no fees.

Re: [hlds] Teleport Lag on Bigger Servers Since Last Update...
The server rate locked up is not the issue here, as it appears to me. rate has always been default 1 and was never a problem. I never touched my rate setting before or after this update. So I don't think its a rate issue. After reading forums this morning, it appears to be a CPU usage problem since the last update. CPU usage on everyone's machines has been a whole lot higher since the update. I don't know if this is just a change in source which causes it to be more processor intensive, or if it is a memory leak in srcds. It appears to be an exponential problem though. As in the more people in the server, the more proc power it uses (I know this is always the case, but to a much greater extent now). I tested it, I am able to run 1 40 slot server on my box without the warpage lag. But the second I open up another server, everyone in the 40 slot starts warping. I am currently maxing my box out by running three 28 man servers when, before this update, I could run 6 servers (totalling 250 slots), all full, with no lag what so ever. Whatever it is, it is a huge problem which needs a fix quickly. I pray that someone at Valve takes the time to read this or the similar posts on the steam forums. I have spent so much time building up a great CS:S community and now it is hurting from this update.

re: [hlds] Teleport Lag on Bigger Servers Since Last Update...
This warping lag is not restricted to 100 tic servers, reducing to 66 or 33 is a mildly ineffective remedy at best. While somewhat useful stop-gap solutions, dialing back tic-rates, reducing slots and rebooting your server every 6 hours aren't exactly satisfactory answers. Given the scale of this issue I can only assume (hope) Valve will release an update this week to address this.

Re: [hlds] (no subject) - HL2DM Server error messages
iceflatline, Those sorts of errors on HL2DM servers are not unusual and can be ignored for the most part. I also found that on my new HL2DM map http://qsextreme.com/dm_spookface the first time it's run on the server there may be sounds flagged as missing that are really there (the errors won't show if you changelelevel). Strangely, the sounds appear to play regardless of the message (server thinks they aren't there but the client has it). The server will sometimes spam a number of misc errors like clampingand missing weapon animations (crossbow), interpenetrating entities (slams in func_doors), CreateFragmentsFromFile (and other datatable errors) and sound list full, etc, all of which are normal right now. In the startup log you will also see error messages about Error reading weapon data for: weapon_something, these are normal. There are a lot of unfinished HL2DM maps out there that will show lots of different errors too. Unfinished maps also may have some black models or textures, if you get one of these don't run it, get the latest version from the map author (bumpmap problem). Also, don't rename maps, this will mess up the internal bumpmap texture paths (and create black or purple/black checkerboards). Other things that happen that are known issues (not a server setup or config problem): 1. Players that die in the water will hear gurgling after respawn (client must reconnect to fix) 2. Maps that have func_breakable items will have items not respawn in the right spot after pickup (item will respawn at 0,0,0 instead) 3. After running a map for a while, some (not all) players will find that they are unable to get in/out of tight crawlways (model animation problem? - repeatable). 4. you might get a server out of date message even though the server is up to date - WinXP/HLTV problem, don't use tv_enable 1 for now 5. HLTV is not functional in HL2DM right now 6. If you update a map BSP on your server, be sure to delete the old ZTMPs and replace the .BZ2 on the fast download or players will continue to get the old map. My little hl2dm server (4 player) that is only running my new map has been extremely full and players stay on for many hours and seem to be having a lot of fun. I've had more then 3,500 map downloads in the last 3 weeks - very amazing (and gratifying). qUiCkSiLvEr - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Monday, July 11, 2005 3:49 PM Subject: [hlds] (no subject) finally got around to setting up a source dedicated server this weekend.

Re: [hlds] Teleport Lag on Bigger Servers Since Last Update...
I disagree. I've had my settings on default (client side) for the longest time and I still experience the massive choke/loss of FPS that most everybody else is experiencing. Pings are perfectly fine and I've noticed nothing out of the ordinary in terms of lag spikes on any of the servers I've played on. I've played on 33 tickrate servers and 66 tickrate servers of various size (20 to 32+ players) and they all exhibit the same major stuttering since the latest update. For not having changed my rates from the default (outside of rate which is set at 21000), and for having no problems before this update (with the same rates), this is definately an issue brought by something in the latest update. dexion wrote: I have a few 32's running had 28 in it with no problems.

Re: [hlds] Teleport Lag on Bigger Servers Since Last Update...
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Shawn is correct Most of our servers were set to default tickrates and they were disgusting to play on Changing them to 66 tickrate helps with bullet registration but the warping feels worse, not that it was very good on defaults in the first place.
