Confirmed the old dll does fix the problem with server cpu spike but there are things missing like the round time. At this point we are looking at dropping all our 1.6 servers and going back to 1.5 or maybe just dropping counter-strike in total with all the problems experienced. Here in South Africa we are reliant on Cheating Death to do our anti-cheats since VAC causes problems with the limited bandwidth out of our country and users struggling to get the VAC module downloaded. Now with Cheating Death breaking yet again plus the server cpu spikes plus AMX needing to be upgraded it makes no sence in hosting a game thats more of a problem to maintain than anything else.
Disappointed Counter-Strike Server Admin.

If you run amx mod or amxmodx on your servers disable it. These 3 native functions being gone are causing parts of these modifications to loop endlessly. >From amxmodx website.... "Latest Steam update Jun 17, 2004 12:52 It has happened! Since the recent Steam update earlier this week, a few natives in the cstrike module don't work anymore. Any plugins using these natives will not work as expected. They are: cs_get_user_deaths, cs_set_user_bpammo and cs_get_user_bpammo. This is a problem that we have expected to arise at some point with some Steam updates, but that never happened until now. The fix for this is very easy but still has to be done. We will bring you a new set of cstrike builds for Windows and Linux shortly - watch this space. This problem obviously shouldn't affect WON servers. .: by Johnny got his gun" And according to this info, ANY plugin that calls upon these functions is going to lag up the server. No matter if its amx mod, adminmod, or amxmodx. 8) -StealthMode _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
