OK : )
Im talking about DoD 1.3b. 20 players, Admin Mod 2.50e.

Crashes occur whenever they want.(not just at map changes) Sometimes after
3-4 hours of server operating time, sometimes after 10 minutes.(i dont think
AM is the problem)(we talking about Win2000server, dual 1ghz cpu,1.5GB Ram,
SCSI)(no nimda)

Re: new record

[Dale]

I got you beat, 100 crashes with teambots and admin mod 2.5e when I ran a cs
1.1 server. I used a server restart program. Gave that one a workout.(LOL)
No crashes since 1.3  but I don't use bots anymore either.

that sounds like a server side hack, though I have only heard of them for
CS, not anything for TFC. Very interesting demo though.

Re: Where to find missing resources?

[Mad Ad]

Ok, what you appear to have here is a mixture.  The majority is from your
default TFC install in the valve and tfc pak0.pak (s) and some custom maps
stuff I dont recognise.  Also theres some CS stuff and I dont know that
either but i see its different.

Get a hold of pacscape (or wally, not so good, or any pak editor EXCEPT pak
explorer) and check the pak0 in each mods root folder you have an instal for
and Im guessing thatll give you most of what your looking for.
By what I recognise you will be able to check off at least 85% of that stuff
as present, esp the majority of the gfx/env stuff, and the sounds, vox and
fvox stuff.

The shorter list will then be easier to track down specific items.  Maybe
you could post back then if your still in trouble finding some things.

Re: Where to find missing resources?

[Jony Achmed]

a lot of these files (but not all) are found in the pak file in the valve
(or other mod) folder (of half-life client) and can be extracted with wally
or something so your server can use it too. valve didn't include these files
in hlds cuz they thought it would be including too much of the retail
software and the single player map files...

RE: New Beta Counter-Strike Server and HLTV

[Ken Kirchner]

Since the beta upgrade I have had 2 crashes on my CS server (Prior to the
beta upgrade it hadnt crashed once since upgraded to 1.1.0.8 and CS1.3).

It crashed once on Sep 27 and again on Sep 29 on maps de_dust and
cs_backalley respectively.

The last line of the logs for both crashes was:

Error NUM_FOR_EDICT: bad pointer


Anyone else seeing this behavior?  I can live with 2 crashes in 72 hours.
No problem with that at all. :-)

The occasional DoD crash still happens with no apparent reason listed in
the logs.

Firedaemon game dies during map change....

[Jody Marshall]

I am using the firedaemon to run hlds as a service every time there is a map
change on my TFC server it dies and resets the game. If I run the same
config without firedaemon the maps change but the server dies here and there
but not because of map changes. My firearms server is not doing this. I
tried to uninstall the service and running it again but still did not fix
the problem. Anyone have any suggestions.
  Thanks
  Jody

[Joshua Davis]

Yeah, that's the only problem..
I found some hops that are bad, but what can you do.
At least I somewhat know what the problem is now
though
Thanks,

Re: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution

Do a tracert and check which hops are bad! A few got infected(nimda) and
produced bad latency. I know of 2-3 qwest hops and 2-3 alter.net were bad
and slowed people on my server down.

You have to wait for them to fix their hops.

RE: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution

[Joshua Davis]

Yeah, I'm running HL 1108a and CS 1.3, but the problem
started before installing those.
The server is a P3 650 w/256MB of ram.
I have pinged my clan mates, and the ping time is the
same inside and outside of the game.
I have a feeling that the problem is with our ISPs and
different networks.. I also think that my ISP has
switched back bones recently.
Thanks for you help though

RE: pings went from good to not good w/ no solution

[Stan Hoeppner]

CS server?  Are you currently running HLDS 1108 and CS1.3?  If so, what
speed is the CPU of the server?  CS 1.3 uses about 20-30% more CPU cycles
than 1.1 did, if I recall the posts from Valve correctly.

Check your CPU utilization on the server when it's full.  If it's averaging
70 to 80% or higher, this is probably the reason for the higher pings.  The
cause is the additional code added to CS 1.3 to fix the hitbox errors.  It's
very CPU intensive.

Also, perform some ICMP ping tests between the clients and the server, and
see if the return times are similar to the in-game ping.  If the in-game
ping is much higher than the ICMP ping, this is due to your CPU being
loaded.

Re: Valve will support PB??? New news from PunkBuster

[Joshua Davis]

Yeah.
The best bet is to have rcon available to all of the
clan mates/admins and just kick/ban the cheaters.
Maybe Valve could come up with a way to submit
cheaters on some type of black list through IPs or
something, I don't know.

pings went from good to not good w/ no solution

[Joshua Davis]

I am running a CS server with 1108a ..
DSL 384K/s up and down.
My clan members with cable would normally get pings of
40-80.  I got the code red virus on the server, got
rid of it, and everything was back to normal.  One day
About 2-3 weeks ago I decided to look for the Half
life update (Sierra Utilities).  This was about 5 days
before 1.3 came out.  It found an update for HL from
1106 to 1107.  I installed that.  I don't know if that
was why, but ever since then all my clan mates have
pings above 100 w/lag.  I contacted my ISP they ran
tests and tweeked everything.  I don't think it's me,
because I get players from Canada and NY connecting
with pings around 60. (I'm in Va, USA)  My clan mates
live a few miles from me.  I would like to blame the
problem on their ISP and the networking/routes.
Anyone know what might be the problem?  I have full
antivirus that I update daily, and I have reinstalled
HL and CS on the server.  I was about to re install
all the software on the server, but my ISP said it was
most likely a connection thing.

Please help,

Re: Valve will support PB??? New news from PunkBuster

[Dan]

heh..

""I think VALVe should fix it at the source""

oh, and what "source" would that be?

They ban the right for people to learn programming languages and think up
nasty and evil schemes of how to hack a game next?

Lets face it, its going to get cracked sooner or later, im not supporting
the cheaters far from it, im just making out its a EXTREMELY hard task to
make a game UN-HACKABLE..

OK, it's a long list, probably 20K or so. These are the missing files. I
haven't thoroughly scrubbed the list, so there may be some weird looking

are sorted by type.

Check the readme.  They updated it with the new commands.  I asked about
this just a day or two ago and Eric from Valve replied with the info.

What a shame ... PunkBuster doesn't even work (don't take my word for it,
test it for yourself) ...  I think VALVe should fix it at the source
instead of trying to put on a band-aid after the fact ...

Is there anyway to extract from the WAD file a list 
of resources that are included in it?

Re: Where to find missing resources?

[Jonathan A]

maby ppl can send you the missing files if you write a list of all the
missing wads and stuff... half-life clients crash if they can't find the wad
file, so im guessing the server will crash too... if you create a dummy wad
file with the right name then the map will load but the missing textures
will be replaced with white or something... most mappacks that have lots of
maps have missing wads, but that's probably cuz nobody plays that map and
nobody ever noticed. i have about 750 cs maps and more than 1/3 dont work...
some maps also use wads from texture designers...

The latest beta update from valve includes a new HLTV which has an
autoretry command.  "autoretry " where n is the number of seconds to
wait before attempting a reconnection.  I tried it by kicking my HLTV
proxy and it joined right back up.  Works great.

You can get the latest beta from ftp.valvesoftware.com (l:hlserver
p:hlserver) or a number of mirrors that have been posted here lately.

I am in the process of cleaning up my map collection, and I just used resgen
to scan all of my BSP files. I find that I have about 488 maps missing about
800 resources files. I have 1,479 maps at this time. I can post a list of
maps and missing files if anyone really wants to see them.

eg. if you have a wave file named  dummy.wav
open the *.bsp file with an hex editor or a goot text editor
use the search function to find   dummy.wav
the position you find dummy.wav should looks like

[Stan Hoeppner]

This from http://www.punkbuster.com/news.html:



Thursday 9.27.2001 [3:00PM]

Since Tuesday's announcement regarding PunkBuster going commercial, we have
received four inquiries from commercial game developers (including Valve)
about the possibility of integrating our Anti-Cheat software technology into
their products. We continue to desire relationships with game designers who
are serious about stopping cheaters. We will release more details as soon as
possible (hopefully, in the near future).

There is no way to do that, you must bint 3 different IPs to your network
card and bind every HL server to one IP on port 27015...

RE: LANPARTY

[Stan Hoeppner]

The simplest way to achieve your goal is to bind 1 IP address for each HLDS
server to the NIC in the server machine.  Then, use +IP in the command line
you start each server with.  This will allow all the HLDS servers to stay on
port 27015, and this should allow all the LAN clients to see all the servers
in the LAN browse list.

Any additional IP addresses you bind to the NIC need to obviously be of the
same subnet.  For example, if your server currently has an IP address of
192.168.1.2, I would also bind 192.168.1.3, and 192.168.1.4.

If you don't know how to bind additional IP addresses to the NIC on your W2K
box, follow these instructions:

1.  Right click My Network Places, select properties from the context
sensitive menu.
2.  Right click Local Area Connection, select properties from the context
sensitive menu.
3.  Select Internet Protocol, and click properties.
4.  Click the Advanced button
5.  In the IP Addresses box, click Add
6.  Enter an IP address and the subnet mask of the current IP address
7.  Repeat steps 5 and 6 until you have 1 IP address for each HLDS server

Now, for each HLDS server you will launch, use:

HLDS.EXE  'This will bind automatically to
192.168.1.2
HLDS.EXE -game "modname" +IP 192.168.1.3 
HLDS.EXE -game "modname" +IP 192.168.1.4 

Try this and see if it works.

Re: LANPARTY

[HoundDawg]

Please, please lose the ALL CAPS!!

You may want to give the hlmaster program (http://hlmaster.sourceforge.net)
a try.  What you would do is install and configure it on your lan and then
point all of your servers and clients to use it much like a pub server uses
the WON master servers.  You would change the master server IPs in the
"/valve/woncomm.lst" file.

I have no idea if this would really work, just that I think it's worth a
try.  At least I'm under the impression that this hlmaster can be used like
this.  Maybe someone else on the list can verify this?

Announcement: GameGuard

[Carsten Jendro]

Two hours after we heard  that Punkbuster will change to commercially
product we decided to start our own fully free cheat protection project.



HERE A COPY OF OUR FIRST STATEMENT ON OUR PROVISIONAL HOMEPAGE
Welcome
to the provisional homepage of GameGuard.
  Have you ever thought about fair-play?

  Have you ever been stark-staring mad about other players kicking your
ass because they were cheating?

  Wouldn`t it be cool if there was a FREE tool to stop those cheats from
ruining your favorite game? A FREE tool that will be always be FREE, now and
in the future?

  Well, join the club ;). Forming a united capable and dedicated team,
we have started a project to change this poor situation.

  The result of our project should be a simple-to-use-tool for gamers
protecting them from cheaters, rewarding their honest attitude toward
gaming.
  A tool to find and eliminate cheaters from our game servers!

  For further information, revisit gameguard.clanhosting.de soon. Soon
we will also have information about our new international "home". We are
working on it, right now.

  Experienced and interested C/C++-Coders are kindly asked to send an
email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]


  You will hear from us. Soon. That's for sure!

  The Crew









SHORT
TECHNICAL  DESCRIPTION

The GameGuard Project will be a client-server-based tool that will be able
to detect cheats in online games.
We have done some brainstorming about how to keep such an project uptodate,
enabling it to detect all used and working cheat at any time it is used.
We have come to the conclusion, that an open source approach towards this
proble would result in the shortest and fastest development stages - that
would, however, also mean that the main concept of the system would have to
be absolutely safe.
To our minds, such a safe concept cannot be achieved in the first steps of
development - we will however in the process of development try to reach the
needed level of security and will hopefully (if possible, using such an open
system like Windows) reach it.

The complete release of the source code in this early stage of development
would give the cheat developer the possibility to easily program fake
clients - and it would also mean giving away lots of our internal knowledge
to the cheat developers.

With that in mind we have decided to choose another solution.
The Game Guard system will, after its completion, include a plugin-system.
that will most likely be realized via some sort of script language.
Thus it will be guaranteed, that an unlimited number of external developers
can contribute to cheat detection, WITHOUT the source code of the project
being released. They can easily contribute by coding cheat detection scripts
for cheats they know and send them to us.


The GameGuard system will consist of 3 different components:

1.) Game Guard client

The gameguard client will be installed on the PC which also has the game to
monitor installed.
The client will work similar to a virus scanning software, detecting the
means and goals of certain programs or files on the hard disc or RAM,
reacting to certain actions triggered by cheats or certifying the
authenticity of certain game files.
The client can also perform complex actions that it receives via scripts of
the servers.
After completing the script the client will send back a result to the
server.
The scripts received by gameservers will only be accepted by the client if
they include a digital signature of the GameGuard team.
By that we will make sure that noone can open up a server, binding own
scripts to the client and by that can spy on players on the server.

2.) GameGuard-Server
The GameGuard Server monitors one or more game servers and waits for
connections of clients.
If a new connection is noticed, the server will send various scan scripts to
the client and will check the results. The server also receives all bits of
information on events reported by the client itself. The client itself will
never make the decision, if a cheat has been found or not, on its own. It
simply reports everything to the server, which makes the decision.
In reply the server might send further scripts to the client to check
certain things it may consider necessary and relevant.
The GameGuard server will normally run on the same system also running the
game server.

3.) GameGuard Base
The base is the "headquarter", the central for all server. There will only
be a few bases; all Servers will login to the bases to check the
availability of new updates for the detection of new cheats.
Normal GameGuad clients will only once login to the base after they have
connected to a gameserver, to check

HLTV request

[K2]

I just recently re-signed up on this mailing list - if this issue I am
bringing up has already been hashed out, please forgive me.

Small request - that HLTV be able to reconnect on it's own without user
intervention to a HL port that has crashed and been restarted within a short
amount of time. I run a couple counterstrike ports and when hlds.exe
inevitably crashes, I have a small DOS script that restarts the port within
a couple seconds, no big deal. However, HLTV cannot tell that the port it
was monitoring was brought back up, and eventually quits.

There are some server operators out there I'm sure like myself that would
like to run a HLTV proxy to a match port or public port 24/7 but cannot
because of the current limitations with HLTV - unless they constantly
monitor their server manually all the time. Bleh.

Anyone have a viable workaround or solution?

wait a minute..version 1.3 is 99% bugs and only playable by 65% of those
that downloaded it these are new bugs from new CRAP that was added yet
the old bugs are still present and not even attempted to be fixed. Take the
hitboxes for example... they were supposedly fixed. Yet on EVERY 1.3
server.. the amount of headshots is so rempant that people are sick and
tired of it except for the newbies that just go with spray 'n pray anyways.
The new hitboxes took out the skill and placed its priority with quantity,
not quality.
Boycotting is not the answer but there should be somehting done by Valve
themselves to prevent cheating. bunny hopping was a cheat supposedly
fixed... well i can repetedly hit the jump button and hop just like they
did...and other more serious cheats are even more rampant especially with
the news bugs, theyre just getting exploited.

RE: PB issue-why dont we let this die?

[Stan Hoeppner]

Hey guys, my 'boycott' suggestion only had one purpose, and the suggestion
was made kinda tongue in cheek anway.  I didn't think anyone would take it
all that seriously.  The only reason I suggested it was to get Valve to
respond to the major question:  Are they anti cheat, and are they going to
support PB, or make anti-cheat a higher priority?  We were all left
wondering what Valve's position is, as there was no information forthcoming.
Again, the only reason I suggested what I did was to extract a comment from
Valve about this current high-priority issue.

Now that Erik J has responded, I think the whole boycott thing is dead, and
should be.

Hey, y'all, I just thought I'd let you all know that I've reached a
point
right now where I've let gaming and everything related (including
especially
adminning of servers) pretty much take over my life, in almost every
aspect--replacing not only more typical social interaction but even so
far
as a job, etc.  It's kind of stupid, but it's easy to do because it's
fun,
often challenging, and because there's really a *community* you're a
part
of.  Regardless, almost like an alcoholic I've reached "rock bottom",
and
I'm taking this opportunity, somewhat involuntarily, to step away from
the
gaming community  altogether.  Now's just the time I have to make that
step.

I know I've relied on a lot of y'all--including some of you Valve
employees--for answers and help on a lot of different subjects, and for
that
I thank you.  I also know I've gotten pretty harsh/sharp with a lot of
you,
and for that I'm sorry.  I really don't mean to be an asshole, but I let
it
come out like that way too much, often with very little "filtering"
going on
before I hit the Send button.  Yeah, sometimes it was deserved, but most
often it wasn't, and regardless it was wrong.

I'll be unsubscribing from these lists as soon as I can get listadmin to
do
its thing, but for future reference, if y'all ever need to get ahold of
me
for something, I can almost always be reached at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or
*always* (assuming MS doesn't go out of business any time soon and
public
libraries don't go offline, heh) at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Y'all take care and try not to let this game eat too much into your
life.
Some lessons you have to learn for yourself, and I regret that this has
to
be one of them.

Good bye, good luck, and, well, I guess "good game" would be appropriate
;)
