 there is one thing common to regular players and cheaters - all they do
 not like C-D servers. it's still better to have VAC than an empty server.

 VAC will empty your servers my friends. It's actually better to use these
wasted CPU cycles to.. host Ventrilo for example.

 CS was a great project back when it was free, now community is split
between CS 1.5 [yes still played] 1.6, CZ, CS:S. Don't you just love what
Valve does with CS?

 Any sane person would have used PunkBuster by now, but not Valve. I'm sure
we will see PB on Q4 pretty soon, almost from day 1. Not like here where in
CS:S cheaters are rampant for months.

 But oh! VAC2? Nothing but empty promises. A year from now CD 5.x will do
the trick.

 1. Not if you want shared ( multi server ) installs.
 2. How do u know hes running halflife 1 games?
 +sv_lan 0 is default so not required.
 3. Again hl1 based, he might be installing hl2 ( CS:S )

 So conclusion is your information could be worse than
 useless point him in the wrong direction HL1 info
 although they are similar.

 Don't want to put you down but without knowing what hes
 trying to run best not make an assumptions :)

 Wow - way to welcome someone to the linux world... If you did some reading
 you could answer his questions... as I will now.
 
 1 - its in the correct directory. Always create a user and put the files in
 their home dir, as you said you did. Everything is installed in a
 directory
 in the home folder of an account i made for it
 
 2 - ./hlds_run +sv_lan 0 -game whatevermod -autoupdate +ip x.x.x.x (the
 full command line options can be found at any good cstrike site usually.
 
 3 - just some rate tweaking usually depending upon your connection.
 
 I would start here -
 http://server.counter-strike.net/server.php?cmd=howtoshow=linux as this
 will help you out with all the questions you asked.
 
 Oh yeah - welcome to the hlds_linux mailing list. :)

 Your neglecting to tell us what it is :P
 
 RTFM seems to spring to mind for at least one of the questions
 without knowing the answer to the above.

 Im new to the whole linux server world and have set up a box running Fedora
 3 and have SELinux enabled. I believe i have installed
 it correctly. Everything is installed in a directory in the home folder of
 an account i made for it. I am now stuck with a few
 questions. 1) should it be where it is or in someother directory? 2) What
 command line do I run to start it properly? and 3) Is
 there anything extra i have to do to ensure this runs properly?

 Well we all need personal time but while Valve are down the beach I and many
 others are sitting here putting servers back up as fast as they are taken

 fix.

 We had a beta test and what a joke that was one map slow updates you could
 hardly call it a beta more just a hardware test.

 Agreed.


 Like many others I think valve is too slow at releasing these fixes, we all
 moved over to steam so they could send out lots of small fixes fast but from
 what I can see steam is just a way of them collecting more data on users
 than rolling out fixes.

 Steam is primary a money making machine. Its purpose is also delivering
patches, content etc. but think.. Steam does a hell of a job for Valve and a
really poor job for the little guy [valve steam product user]. And yes
INDEPENDENCE from Vivendi [forgot about that one].

 I'm not against Steam but no other company has ever used such a method of
control for the money.

 This list is about 80% filled with frustration when you read the mails.
Kinda makes you think cs, dod and others were doing fine back in the days
when they were free.

Re: [hlds_linux] Re: Cheat consolecommands

2004-10-16 Thread Mihai Badila

 had a discussion with dabb, CD [lead?] coder, some 2-3 weeks ago.

[20:25] @UA GS: Dabb MentaL|UA: and we ended up to this point where I
can no longer find public cheats to block - damn.

[20:25] @UA GS: MentaL|UA Dabb: yea... they have gone underground
[20:27] @UA GS: Dabb If you have any cheat which still works with C-D,
send it to me - I haven't received any lately *grin*

 and of course the very one to which i tottaly agree:

[20:31] @UA GS: Dabb less CPU than VAC, erm, how can you use less CPU
than a thing which does next to nothing?-)

 anyway GREAT work from the CD team. keep it uuup! :)
