Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 engine beta update released
Well - i am running a 22 Slot-Server with that latest beta and ppl complain that at 16 - 22 Player the dont hit them like before the Update. The player dont know that i've installed the update - beside that binarys i didnt change anything. It would also be great so see a hltv-update fixing the '16:9'-Bug - and it would be great if i the hltv does not need a additional slot.

What are the chances of your looking into OP4 server crashes? All of mine crash regularly, depending on server load. It's so bad the players can almost set their clocks by it. I can provide you logs or whatever would help if you are interested in doing this.

Re: [hlds] Half-Life 1 engine beta update released
We have released an update to the beta, run the hldsupdatetool with -beta hlbeta to get this update. Changes for this update are: - rolled back previous sv_downloadurl and dlfile changes, added some more checks to prevent inappropriate dlfile calls at other times - Increased sv_filetransfermaxsize back to 10mbytes by default - Added sv_allow_dlfile cvar, set this to 0 to disable using dlfile at all (useful safe valve if getting hit by this attack) - Allow up to 128 mbyte heap via -heapsize command (up from previous 40mbytes), for some 3rd party games - Added sv_logsecret support, same implementation as on Source engine - Rate limit user voice data to one per frame, fixes voice_inputdata exploit. If you run 1000FPS server and still have a problem, stop running a 1000FPS server. -Original Message- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux- boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Alfred Reynolds Sent: Monday, July 18, 2011 10:37 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list; 'hlds@list.valvesoftware.com'; 'hlds_annou...@list.valvesoftware.com' Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Half-Life 1 engine beta update released I received a couple bug reports over the weekend so I am going to take the time to dig into those, expect another beta release or two before a full release. -Original Message- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux- boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Alfred Reynolds Sent: Friday, July 15, 2011 1:29 PM To: 'hlds@list.valvesoftware.com'; Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list; 'hlds_annou...@list.valvesoftware.com' Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Half-Life 1 engine beta update released We have released an update to the beta, run the hldsupdatetool with - beta hlbeta to get this update.
