Re: [hlds] Tickrate for GoldSrc
found an old HLDS List thead that might help in the understandind of sys_ticrate , fps , update rates or servers and clients. I'm done -Original Message- From: Kevin Ottalini [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 17, 2006 11:01 AM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] more then 1000fps at HLDS HLDS (HL1 servers) can easily and with little burden run at either ~500 fps or ~1000 fps. There is no control over the actual maximum FPS since it is a motherboard chipset related issue.This is controlled by the sys_ticrate CVAR so the max setting is: sys_ticrate 1000Win32 servers will also need to run some sort of high-resolution timer (please see other mail threads about this).We are only talking about HLDS here (HL1 servers). Source (SRCDS) servers are quite different and (at the moment) appear to run the best at their default settings.This is not really FPS in the sense of visual FPS, but rather how often the server will process the available event information (take a snapshot) and if needed send an update to clients that need updates. The more updates the server sends out the more bandwidth the server will use on the uplink.Clients can receive a maximum of 100 updates per second regardless of the server sys_ticrate setting.A client getting a server update is not the same thing as the video FPS that the client is actually viewing.The client graphics FPS, which for clients is controlled by the scene and event complexity and the fps_max CVAR could indeed be set to fps_max 1000 but anything above 100 is quite silly. Again, this viewing FPS has nothing to do with the server sys_ticrate setting.The client has a CVAR that tells the server how often to send updates, this is the cl_updaterate CVAR. cl_updaterate 100 is the maximum (fastest) setting which the server may or may not allow. The server can limit the client maximum via the sv_maxupdaterate CVAR.Again, this has nothing to do with the client's VISUAL FPS.OK, so why would a server operator want to run his/her server at sys_ticrate 1000?In the case of HL1 servers only, running a faster ticrate on the server can slightly improve the apparent client latency (sometimes called ping, but ping is a little different). If the server is running sys_ticrate 100 then there is a 10ms interval between server snapshots that can be sent to clients. If a client has an 80ms ping distance from the server (real ping this time) then the maximum latency is 80ms (ping) + 10ms (snapshot rate) or 90ms (latency).If the same server is running at sys_ticrate 1000, then the snapshot interval is only 1ms, so that same player will only see an 81ms latency.Is a 9 ms savings important during game play? Probably not, although there are internet players that claim to be able to feel the difference. In a LAN setting this may be different, 10ms extra may be 10X what the ping is on a LAN (but still, is this important? probably not).Running an HLDS server at a higher sys_ticrate should have the overall effect of keeping what players see on that server more accurate. This appears to be a real and valuable effect at the cost of much higher CPU utilization.The real reason that a server operator might want to run his HLDS server at sys_ticrate 1000 though is that it gives the server the ability to send updates to individual clients on a more timely basis. Again, this is not more updates, just updates that don't have to wait very long for the next server snapshot to happen.This has the overall effect on the server of spreading out client updates so they don't all happen for all clients at the same time. This can slightly lower the demand on the server uplink and might help the server to run a little smoother.Extensive testing on my HLDM server resulted in the conclusion that running sys_ticrate 1000 actually allowed me to add one additional player slot (out of 10 total) and the server had a much tighter feel to events with a slight improvement in accuracy.Of course, running sys_ticrate 1000 also took my average CPU utilization for a 10-player server from around 3% to around 40% for some maps.Even my old 800MHz Intel P3 server was able to run sys_ticrate 1000, the real question is are you overloading your server CPU? This is a function of the number of players, the map you are running and the sys_ticrate setting.If your CPU is running more the 50% with sys_ticrate 1000 then decrease the sys_ticrate to 500.For testing purposes, use the Server GUI (don't use -console) and look at the utilization graph.qUiCkSiLvErFrom: blyte_sc...@hotmail.com To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2012 21:49:49 -0500 Subject: Re: [hlds] Tickrate for GoldSrc Look into high resolution timer.

Re: [hlds] srcds vhosting
Man this takes me back to ... 1998-1999 ... editing my hosts file so I could just type connect servername in hosts file. Even back then, server ops wanted better DNS support, mainly for the dreaded IP change. If users stored their favorite servers as a hostname, then IP changes would be 1 less thing to worry about (worst case scenario would be a very long TTL value making your clients connect to the old IP). SRV records support would be awesome ... it's one of those ideas that makes you go Why hasn't this support been implemented YEARS ago? Oh well. SRV records have only been around 11+ years now ... why take advantage of them now, when damn near every (if not all?) *current* OS understands them? --mauirixxx -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of netshr...@gmail.com Sent: Thursday, August 16, 2012 7:21 PM To: kame...@gasso.org; Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] srcds vhosting The good thing about DNS is that, apart from CNAME, it's one-to-many. So in theory, assuming hypothetical DNS support on Source, you could set up 20 SRV records for the same subdomain, and if the user adds that to their favourites they then get a grouped list of all your servers.

Lookups are done at connect time or adding-to-favourites time, completely by the client. There's no official or unofficial way to do HTTP-style vhosting as far as I am aware. I dug into this in-depth a while ago and came to the same determination: the existing DNS support is pretty much useless beyond the initial connect. Favoriting or connecting a host by name is nice, but it's a one-time thing. IMHO, the client really should support saving by name so resolution occurs later too, but instead saves by IP. Hosting providers, ISPs, and network infrastructures can change often, why not take advantage of DNS when it's already supports making these changes transparent to end users? Changing a server's hostname field to redirect users after an IP renumbering just feels like a crummy hack to me. Sorry to go so far off-topic here, but this has been a pet peeve of mine with Source's network support for a while. And as for the OP, even proper DNS support won't help you here. If it ever comes along, maybe Valve can add SRV record support as others have mentioned and make us both very happy. :) Cheers, -- Kameron Gasso | kame...@gasso.org ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds

While I can't give a promise, in general bugfix updates rarely do. Modbreaking updates tend to be the ones including new features, like the recent MvM update. So I doubt it breaks anything.

[hlds] tf_mm_strict values swapped
There is a bug with the tf_mm_strict change in the update we released a few minutes ago. The values as documented are swapped between 1 and 2. In this update: tf_mm_strict 1 currently DOES NOT allow direct connections tf_mm_strict 2 currently DOES allow direct connections We'll release an optional update shortly to fix this to match the documentation. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
[hlds] tf_mm_strict is very broken
This is for a pvp server, as of version 1.1.2.5: If tf_mm_servermode = 0, everything is fine If tf_mm_servermode = 1 AND tf_mm_strict = 0 or 2, connections from favorites are rejected with ad-hoc connections are not allowed If tf_mm_servermode = 1 AND tf_mm_strict = 1, connections from favorites work. So, to workaround you can either turn off mm, or (ironically) set strict to 1. -- m. tharp ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds

Re: [hlds] Setting Missions in MvM
On this topic - does anyone have a quick overview of how to start and keep an MvM server rotating through only the advanced missions, or even both the standard and advanced missions? I've got around 40 MvM servers up for the Australian community, but I'd like to be able to run some more with the advanced rotations.

[hlds] Possible to host CS:S and CS:GO dedicated servers on the same box?
I run a dedicated computer to host a few CS:S servers (Windows Server 2008 R2). I have been hosting multiple instances of the old srcds with CS:S for years without any trouble. I recently installed SteamCMD on this same box and downloaded the CS:GO server. Upon restarting my CS:S servers, I was now getting this error message: * * * Unable to load Steam support library.* * Unable to load Steam support library.* * This server will operate in LAN mode only.* * This server will operate in LAN mode only.* * * After asking on the steam forums, someone told me that deleting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam from the registry was a way to work around this, and it worked. However, this just feels wrong and I am wondering if there is a better way, or any way at all presently, to host both CS:S and CS:GO on the same computer without hacking apart my registry? Is it possible to retrieve the CS:S files from SteamCMD? I did a bit of searching around but was not able to find any really helpful info...

Re: [hlds] tf_mm_servermode
Here is my assessment: The real heart of the issue is tf_mm_strict is fucked up. The values of 0 and 1 are reversed, but not for the tags. Setting it to 0 clears the tag hidden, but makes ad-hoc connections not possible (IE, from the server browser). It also has a chance to make bots move into the server. Setting this to 1 puts on the hidden tags, but makes it possible to connect normally (Which is what setting it to 0 should do). The reason that setting tf_mm_servermode to 0 works is because it cuts out the beta system, which is the only system using the tf_mm_strict. This lets you rely on the old system. Therefore, Valve needs to fix their shiz.

Re: [hlds] tf_mm_servermode
Just keep in mind that this opts out of the beta quickplay. You can still use the beta quickplay if you set tf_mm_servermode back to 1, and set tf_mm_strict to 1. However, your server gets the hidden tags. For now, I just said whatever, and set tf_mm_servermode to 0 for the time being.

The reason that setting tf_mm_servermode to 0 works is because it cuts out the beta system, which is the only system using the tf_mm_strict. This lets you rely on the old system.

Re: [hlds] tf_mm_servermode
tf_mm_servermode can be set to 0, 1 or 2. At setting 0, it uses just the old quickplay system (the original). At setting 1, it opts into the beta system at the same time as the old one. At setting 2 it sets it to MvM mode. tf_mm_strict can also be set to 0, 1 or 2. It influences how the beta system interacts with servers. At setting 0, it allows people to join off of the server browser, through quickplay or what have you. At setting 1, it hides the server on the browser, and only accepts matchmaking. At setting 2, it hides the server on the browser but allows ad-hoc joining methods (like off of a friend, console, etc.) On Fri, Aug 17, 2012 at 10:59 PM, Jimmy Rustler enjoi4...@hotmail.comwrote: So can I get a breakdown of tf_mm_servermode and tf_mm_strict and what their specific commands do?

The reason that setting tf_mm_servermode to 0 works is because it cuts out the beta system, which is the only system using the tf_mm_strict. This lets you rely on the old system. Therefore, Valve needs to fix their shiz.

However, this just means that probably the beta quickplay system is broken at the moment. What is tf_mm_strict, by the way? From what I read it is the same command.

Should do what you need. If it doesn't, then you'd need to ask someone more
knowledgeable than myself :-P

Hi,
Sorry, I must be dense today, but I can't get a server launching with only
advanced missions. Can you (or someone) provide an example of a
tf_mvm_missioncycle.res and any other changes necessary for that to happen?
Thanks,
Brendan.

You can edit tf_mvm_missioncycle.res to remove the Normal missions.

On this topic - does anyone have a quick overview of how to start and keep
an MvM server rotating through only the advanced missions, or even both the
standard and advanced missions? I've got around 40 MvM servers up for the
Australian community, but I'd like to be able to run some more with the
advanced rotations.
Regards,
Brendan.

I knew I'd find it somehow!
You can use tf_mvm_popfile to select the appropriate mission file. The
popfiles are in tf/scripts/population, and are listed in
tf_mvm_missioncycle.res. This can probably also be used to load missions
that belong to different maps, but I wouldn't recommend it. Who knows how
horribly it could break things.

I'd love a command for this, it really is annoying to have to vote to

Don't votes run commands after they are won? Maybe we could steal the
command from there.

The only real way I've found so far is to call a ChangeMission vote once

Hey, maybe I missed some sort of memo, but as a server owner, how should I
be able to change the missions my server runs? I was playing on my private
server with some friends earlier but we noticed in matchmaking we could
select these different missions here: http://puu.sh/VQAn
When playing on my server, it seemed to just rotate between the 3 maps on
the 'normal' difficulty maps, but I had no idea how to set a map to be on a
mission such as Data Demolition on Decoy or whatever else. I did a bit of
looking around but I think I really missed something here.
