[hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
Curious what hardware other 32 player serverops are running. We've had growing problems with CPU on our system and it has only gotten worse since the Engineer update, so looking to others with 32 player servers and what you guys are running.

Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
Actually, I'd be interested in this as well - especially if you can maintain 1000 server fps at all times. Seems like I haven't found a provider yet that can do 1000fps solid beyond 12 players (I'm using AI atm). May just roll my own server and do it that way. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of msleeper Sent: Friday, September 03, 2010 3:03 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware Curious what hardware other 32 player serverops are running.

Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
I'll let Nephyrin re-explain it, but yesterday in IRC he gave a very great explaination of why 1000 FPS is bullshit and just a waste of cycles. I appreciate everyone's input so far, except for Justin who seemed to entirely miss what I was asking for, but I hear that nosteam kills brain cells so I'm not surprised.

Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
Try one of our match servers, they are designed to run solid 1000fps up to 18players. Now we haven't tried above that, but if you want to test we can set something up for you. http://www.multiplaygameservers.com/game-servers/team-fortress-2-1000-fps/ Regards Steve - Original Message - From: Jeremy D.

Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
mrsleeper, I'd like to hear his explanation. I have similar feelings. If people want to modify operating systems and do whatever, they are welcome to and I think it is pretty cool. It is even more unnessecary than network rate restrictions. Forcing clients to a 100hz update rate when their ping jitter is nearly 50ms on a second-rate DSL connection and they may be playing at 30fps is incredibly stupid. That is another discussion for another time. It seems as if these Xeon systems are definitely up to the task.

Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware
I run a Q6600 with 2gb ram and server 2003 500fps with no issues with 96 slots. Also got a 8 slot NS2 server running on it as well.. Not even Xeon class processor :-( If I had the money I'd build one like I did the other day dual xeon quads with 6 o ram and 15k RAM SAS drives. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of HL-SDK Synths Sent: Saturday, September 04, 2010 1:06 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] 32 Player TF2 Hardware mrsleeper, I'd like to hear his explanation.
