Right, so let me get this right... "There is no tickrate cvar for SRCDS"? This statement is correct unless you are running mani-admin (probably an extremely large percentage of SRCDS servers are).
"SRCDS uses the command 'fps_max' period". Uses it period for what exactly? So tickrate makes no difference to CPU usage or fps? Fps_max does matter, however so does tickrate... "and yes it can only be utilised in the CMD line". Disagree. Have you actually tried setting this in server.cfg or on the console? OMG it actually works outside the cmdline!! Shock horror! "there has never been any command tickrate ever". LOL... So the -tickrate command is something all of us SRCDS admins make up just to pass the time, and give us something to talk about? You diss whisper, however it appears to all of us, that you have no idea what you are actually talking about. If any of us were you, we would stop posting anymore, and save any further embarrassment. gg noob.

There is no tickrate,ticrate or any other type of tick cvar for SRCDS. Never has been never will be, EVER. In the CMD line or server.cfg. SRCDS use the command "FPS_max" period. And yes it can only be utilized in the CMD line. Unlike HLDS which the command is sys_ticrate and can be utilized in either the CMD line or the server.cfg There has never been any command "tickrate" ever. What the hell are you people smoking crack. -------Original Message------- From: Ian mu Date: 04/23/06 03:10:34 To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] SRCDS will not run -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Can't work out if people are serious in this topic or not anymore hehe. It's -tickrate for srcds in the commandline not ticrate (only place it can be set), and sys_ticrate for hlds (which I believe can be set on commmandline with + or in the config, but someone will correct me on that one).
