Re: [hlds] TF2 ... All 32 player servers filtered out?
Process running in the user mode (the game) just cannot cause BSOD by design of operating system, only stuff running in kernel mode (OS ifself or device drivers) can. In this particular case the most probable cause of BSODs is faulty video driver. It IS faulty since regardless of what it is being told to do by user mode process it should not throw BSOD.

RE: [hlds] TF2 Admin Plugin
We've hosted 2 TF2 instances on 2 different Windows 2003 boxes with virtually identical performance envelopes: + P4 3.0GHz + 2GB RAM + 3 other SRCDS instances on same physical machine (DoD, Insmod, CS, etc.) Tickrate 66, fps_max 300 Idle server fps = about 256 Full load 24 ppl = = 140 fps I have a TF2 instance with gameservers.com: Linux w/ kernel = 1000 Hz Tickrate 66, fps_max 300 Idle server fps = about 160 2 player load = 40 fps We haven't tried a full load yet, but I doubt it's playable. All other netcode settings are virtually identical. Network connectivity is not an issue. I can't get the full story from Gameservers.com's tech support, so I'm only able to make some educated guesses. Either they have something funky set with affinity or some other resource allocation or the Linux SRCDS binary has a serious flaw. If you're noticing extreme CPU utilization that could explain the problem I'm seeing. Normal server slot load would probably not work if the CPU use is skewed.

[hlds] TF2 ... All 32 player servers filtered out?
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] You know I have been away from the mailing list for a while but today when im trying to get SERVER related help it seems either other thread is someone whining about something. If you want to whine about a client crashing go to the steam forums. This is a mailign list for HALF LIFE DEDICATED SERVER operators. The steam forums have been taken over by morons who have nothing better to do than complain about everything and anything they can think off, can we keep this list constructive and to the point? I'm sorry to hear about your BSOD errors whilst trying to play the orangebox, im sure by now you have filled in a steam support ticket and someone at valve is trying to resolve your problem for you, now this mailing list is not here to discuss and argue such matters can we kindly move on and get back to the point of what the mailing list is about? Valve limited the game to 24 slots for a reason, thats how they have intended it to be played, like any company im sure they are very concerned with people modding the server binarys and will do steps to ensure file consistency. This is their test platform and their rules, they set the levels of priority to the problems. I suggest if you are not happy then complain through the proper channels and allow us who are trying to get help and back on track talking about offical problems. Im highly concerned with the influx of people who think this is an extended arm of the steam forums and its normal to sit there whining and acting like 14 year old teenagers. Im starting to think ill never find the information im looking for :( Amigaoasis www.jolt.co.uk [Someone said] Process running in the user mode (the game) just cannot cause BSOD by design of operating system, only stuff running in kernel mode (OS ifself or device drivers) can.
