[hlds] L4D Force Dedicated Server
Sorry if this has been covered before. So it's been some time and I'm now playing L4D again however I see I can no longer do ms_force_dedicated_server anymore. How do I go about creating a game through the lobby and having it connect to one of my servers?

[hlds] Mani Plugins
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Let me just start off as saying sorry if this really isn't the place to ask this question. I just installed the New Mani Admin Plugins 1.2r. After do this I no longer can bring up my admin menu in the game nor am I able to use commands such as timeleft or rank and so on. Anyone else having this issue after installing the latest mani admin? If any one can give me some pointers on how to fix this issue it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [hlds] RE: [hlds][OT]
I am on the linux list, and I run my server on RH7.1 (2.4 kernel) and I have had maybe 2 crashes since 1.3, and probably a dozen since 1.1. Most of these were freak things, admin mod etc. So yeah, the linux version is more stable, but I don't know if that is a result of the program, or the OS. Regardless of this OS war, would anyone seriously like to get a newbie linux (maybe focusing on HLDS/simple servers such as apache/mysql/php stuff) list going? -Chuck Hays On Tue, 2001-10-16 at 16:32, HL Server wrote: At 02:06 PM 10/16/2001 -0700, you wrote: Well, I don't know about other peoples, but even through the last 2 updates, my hlds linux server hasn't dumped once.

Re: [hlds] HLDS 4.1.0.8 Crash Issues....
Sounds like Half Life Hack to me if any of you admins haven't seen this, you really should check it out so you have an idea of what is available to people. It takes 5 minutes tops to install, and it unbelievable.

The boys at Valve figured out at least one thing that has been ailing my server -- it appears this wonderful little TFC crash script has made its way over to my corner of the woods. According to log entries, two users in particular have been crashing my servers: -=Slipknot=- WonID: 77865 James aka asdf WonID: 741733 (IP 4.35.68.130) Unfortunately, this is not the end of my troubles -- although Valve has a beta out which fixes the crash script, something else popped me again tonight, 3 times across two server. :( I've sent the logs up to Valve again, so hopefully they can figure out what it is this time around.

RE: [OT] Qwest + 678
Why is this so definately malarky? You don't think its possible that through a higher level of error checking you could introduce several (15-20) milliseconds of additional latency? I don't think its utterly ridiculous as a possibility. However, I am completely open to other possiblities. I just have heard the same story from 2 separate ISPs. Any other ideas out there? -Chuck On Sun, 2001-10-07 at 01:11, Stan Hoeppner wrote: After speaking with local ISPs (Minneapolis) about Qwest and their network setup, they informed me that the 30-50ms added from the dsl modem to the equipment on the other side is due to Qwest setting the error correction Settings to highest.

RE: [OT] Qwest + 678
So with the DMT stardard, the modem and the hardware on the other end do NO error correction themselves? I find that hard to believe. I am not trying to make enemies here, but what you are saying is illogical. The reason we HAVE a DSL modem is that we can't send tcp/ip directly over a phone line. Its encoded into some other format (which I don't claim to know the details of - DMT/CAP/etc..), and there has to be some kind of error checking. It would be unreasonable to think otherwise. -Chuck Hays On Sun, 2001-10-07 at 14:24, Stan Hoeppner wrote: Why is this so definately malarky?

There is no error checking of packets by routers. StanTheMan TheHardwareFreak www.hardwarefreak.devastation.cc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
