RE: [hlds] CS:S Admins, a call to arms!
Can you introduce your self a little? Age, location, personal status? If you want trust, you got to give. Another thing; you don't think hackers infiltrate such organizations pretty quick if they actually think you will oppose a threat? You got to have a solid backbone in such a system (aka administration tools). I use http://www.checkyour6.net/index.php?cat=toolssub=phpadmin to centrally manage my admins and bans. It will also log admin activity. All web-based. This is just a suggestion so you see what kind of tools I mean. Good initiative, but I seen this before... its like a woman's period... it comes and goes... ;) best regards, Alexander ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

[hlds] Low FPS upon startup for DoD:S
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I recently purchased a new box (Dual Xeon 2.8s with 2 GB of ram) which only runs at 60 FPS upon startup, compared to my old box (P4 3.2Ghz) ran at the default 250 FPS when firing up DoD:S. How come my new box, which is much better than my old, only runs at 60 fps rather than the default 250? I've been trying to figure it out the whole day, no luck. My server drops fps hard when players join. At about 20 players the server fps is at 10-15. I really need to figure out how to go back to the 250 fps default without all that pingboost/media player stuff. How would I fix it to run the default 250ish FPS for DoD:Source?

admin for all these servers which are planed to become exelent servers.. thats
like asking a group of kids if they want candy, and then telling them to take
as much as they want. and thats just asking for bad admins, which will make the
community fall faster then hackers.. you have to have some sort of a community
in place already, and give admin to those who deserve it.. and start off with
admin on like one server.. and if they do well there, make it global.
but i as well am trying to start up some kind of community. i run 2 servers
right now, and im trying to start up some sort of a GSP... so maybe if you want
to conjoin a little i guess... email me off this list with your thoughts.

66Hz is needed for DoD:S to keep an accurate simulation of the physics objects and complex player hit boxes.

Re: [hlds] Low FPS upon startup for DoD:S
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well I dunno about Tyler there, but when I left default to 300 I was only getting 256. I raise it to 1000 and use media player and it goes to 512. ANOTHER trick is (if you have a DOD1.3 still, or hell, even if you dont use it) use the old fps booster from that running with that dod 1.3 console and it will set the timer for you (that also the source server will run from). The dod server will use less resources (memory) then media player typically. Either way both my source and 1.3 server both run at 512+ fps typically, max drop I've seen (under a load) was 490. And what once used to be a no-no, I also have the servers thread priority at high. No ill-effects, actually keeps it smoother when playing. -Ozz -- Original message -- -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] make sure fps_max is 300 anything higher will cause it to fall anything lower will cause it to seep On 9/30/05, [xxx] clan wrote: just open windows media player and you will instantly get 250 fps from the timer in wmp. - Original Message - From: Junior To: Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 2:43 AM Subject: [hlds] Low FPS upon startup for DoD:S -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I recently purchased a new box (Dual Xeon 2.8s with 2 GB of ram) which only runs at 60 FPS upon startup, compared to my old box (P4 3.2Ghz) ran at the default 250 FPS when firing up DoD:S. How come my new box, which is much better than my old, only runs at 60 fps rather than the default 250? I've been trying to figure it out the whole day, no luck. My server drops fps hard when players join. At about 20 players the server fps is at 10-15. I really need to figure out how to go back to the 250 fps default without all that pingboost/media player stuff. How would I fix it to run the default 250ish FPS for DoD:Source? Any suggestions or fixes will be greatly appreciated! The OS for both boxes are Windows 2003 Enterprise Server.

Re: [hlds] CVar for Ping
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I've actually messed with that aspect and I dont know if you guys are talking server-side or client-side, but when I would bring my rate values too low, ping went straight up. Here I can use the LAN to my advantage, but being a LAN it wasn't hard to find a value that would keep me at 0-2 ping. That number probably was being reported correctly however. The rule of thumb I came up with is: Once you've gone below x limit which is determined by all your connection speeds, processor speeds, memory speeds etc, the ping will drastically increase. Similar phenomenon to an overloaded (maxplayers) server. -Ozz -- Original message -- if you set your packet rates too low the system will display a ping in the scoreboard of 5 or less. Generally this will lock to 5, although I have seen non-rate played connections drop lower (although this is clearly an incorrect value).

RE: [hlds] DoD:Source Default tickrate ??
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Assuming this is due to the number of along with the complexity of the objects/hitboxes, what about client side?? I have experimented using media player on my client desktop to discover my game plays much better than without. Same holds true for the srcdsfpsbooster that is out there. I have a batch file that I click that launches the fps booster and then DoD:S. Would tickrate work in the client launch options Alfred? If this is all true and what I am seeing on my client is correct, I would think that implementing this into the client would be beneficial for everyone, perhaps correlating server tickrate with client tickrate upon connecting to make sure there are no side-effects of mismatched tickrates.
