Re: [hlds] Left 4 Dead Update Available
For TF2, there isn't a way to check your server's rank. But I thought this was a Left 4 Dead thread. For Left 4 Dead, you connect to your server and press Tab. On the top right of your screen, where the banner image is, you'll see your server's rank along with the number of players served. Upon connection, it sometimes will display as 0 for both values, but on map change, it should correct itself and show current numbers. -Richard Eid On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 7:26 PM, Jake Skenna wrote: > You don't > > On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 7:21 PM, Chris wrote: > > > How/where do you see your servers rank on the valve ranking system? > > > > On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 11:13 PM, Robert Whelan > >wrote: > > > > > Same here, the only traffic we get is from our admins who know how to > do > > a > > > specialized connect, lol.

Re: [hlds] Server Scoring - an open letter to Valve :)
Uh...how does that help to delist a server? If your players don't like a map then why are you running it? Remember, just because you like something doesn't mean that everyone else does. A map might be great in your eyes, but if a majority of the people on your server leave when it loads, it's probably time to consider not running that map...or maybe just take it out of the rotation and put it up for a vote when you want to play on it. If you still switch to it even though others have voted for something else...well I think you can guess where I'm going with that. Servers don't necessarily have to stay "vanilla" to be successful. You have to cater to your players. It's about the players. -Richard Eid On Sat, Mar 14, 2009 at 9:15 PM, Bengt Rosenberger wrote: > So you are counting the fact that a pure/mixed custom map rotation will > help to delist a server now as a good thing? > And what exactly could a server "modify" and still stay vanilla?

I don't see that valve are saying anything about that one way or another. But if the number of tf2 players is X, the number of servers is Y, and X/Y is less than, say, 16, it stands to reason that there's an oversupply of servers and so their admins either have to be happy if they aren't used, or may have to exert themselves to ensure that.

Re: [hlds] Server Scoring - an open letter to Valve :)
I'm sorry, I don't see how this has to do with pure/mixed custom map rotation... the servers that were delisted were ones which featured both high connection counts and low length of stay on the server, and to an extreme degree. In other words, servers where a great many people have thought from the server browser that the server looked interesting, but, upon connecting, have found otherwise, and immediately disconnected. What has this got to do with custom maps? Unless you are somehow pretending to be running, say, dustbowl, but upon connection people see you are running a rocket jumping map or similar, then it's fine. Unless you have a blank sv_tags and bland server name but when people connect the server turns out to be practically zero gravity, then you're fine. For that matter, if your sv_tags mentions low gravity or the hostname does(or both) you'd also be fine, unless lots of people joined expecting low grav goodness, found it was vanilla, and disconnected. THIS ISN'T ABOUT DELISTING UNPOPULAR SERVERS. This isn't about delisting _modded_ servers. This is about delisting servers that empirical evidence has found doesn't give the players the experience they thought they were getting.

Re: [hlds] Server Scoring - an open letter to Valve :)
Richard, Again, I'm not saying those tactics are even morally sound. I'm saying I understand why they would do it, and that it's a SYMPTOM - not the actual problem. My point is that anyone these days can start a server and put it on the internet. But it just being there isn't enough as you've pointed out. Server admins need promotion tools to attract players. Work is involved. Work is work. Is it the destiny of every server admin out there to participate in painstaking work in order to have a successful community? Don't you think that might take the fun out of it? Because let's face it - that's how it is today. Player attraction isn't a new concept :) Remember those "Arcade" things that used to exist back in the 80's? They all had "attract modes". There's a reason for that. To say that all it takes is "good features" and "good administration"? That's Ambiguous, Subjective and Nebulous all at the same time. What's "dishonest" these days? Who decides? I guess it's valve - and if it is, I felt it necessary to point out that this whole "bad server" thing is a symptom, and not the actual problem. A way to promote is a NECESSITY. We don't have the right tools today. If we did, then you wouldn't see all these underhanded tactics in use out there. If you think that most people want to play the game as it was intended, I would MOSTLY agree - but ask any server admin how much more difficult to keep a 24 player server going over a 32 player server. If a 24 player server loses 12 players, it's effectively dead in the water. If a 32 player server loses 12 players, it can (and likely will) recover. Is Valve saying they want server admins to WORK to keep their servers popular in some sadistic way? Sure sounds like what you're saying. I love gaming on my PC. But it's likely true that neither one of us can make it a full time job. This is a hobby for most. As for "dedicated people" being required to fill servers - that only highlights the problems out there. Should a dedicated team of people be REQUIRED to be on hand to "fill" a server? That sure sounds like a "JOB" to me, and not simply the act of playing a game. We've been playing the "fill the server" game for 6 months now. It's kind of old - for all involved. Including me. That's why we use events in our overinflated steam group. It's not elegant, but it works. I hate to say it, but we HAVE researched what the "Full" servers do. They cheat. It's sad, but for the most part, it's true. Again, their step is in the right direction, and luckily I'm on the right side of their equation when it comes to TG. But I still feel Valve is treating a symptom, not the actual problem. -k -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Richard Eid Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 8:27 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Server Scoring - an open letter to Valve :) But the problem here are the server operators, not the players.

Re: [hlds] Server Scoring - an open letter to Valve :)
But the problem here are the server operators, not the players. Nobody forced them to rent/buy/whatever a server that's going to sit idle while they keep paying some GSP every month. That was their own decision. Just because you can doesn't always mean that you should. So when a server sits idle and the operator resorts to dishonest tactics to get people to join, why shouldn't that be addressed? *That* is the problem. Valve can't do anything to discourage people from making bad decisions, though. People will do what people will do. It doesn't take an act of God to fill a server and keep it full. It takes good features that players want and good administration. Yes, there are many servers out there now, but so many of them are running heavily modified versions of the game that might be fun for a quick visit here and there, just not an every day thing. In the long run, though, I think most players want to just play the game as it was intended. When I fire up TF2 and start my daily grind, I just want to play TF2. Not a game that looks like TF2 with all the rules changed. Another important thing to keep in mind if you're thinking about starting up a server/community, you can't just download the server and put the plugins you want on and expect it to fill. Do some research before hand and see what the servers that are always full do. Yes, you probably want to offer something else that other communities might not have to differentiate yourself from the bunch, but the gameplay itself should stay the same. You're also gonna probably want a dedicated group of people that can seed the server on a constant basis. You might also want to offer a website where people can discuss community or server issues or just talk about whatever. You could also tell people on your Friends list that you have a server and to come check it out. Maybe once the community grows big enough, start to offer servers for other games. The list goes on and on, but all of that still falls short of "an act of God". It takes hard work and dedication. And even then, it still might fall short of success. Sometimes that's just the way the cookie crumbles. My point is that people start up servers and think they're gonna be the next best thing. But they don't know what it takes to get a community going and keep it running smoothly. So when it doesn't go as expected, they begin to do things that they think might be good for them(like fake-clients), but in the short and the long term, all it really does is serve to alienate the playerbase. I think the problem is being addressed here. Since ranks aren't being made public, there's no better or best score. There's only a good and bad. If you want to have a positive score, you have to offer people something that keeps them playing at your joint. There isn't really anything server operators can do to inflate the score, either. Either you give people a reason to stay, or you're probably doing something to make them leave. Sure, you'll have the comers and goers, but those people won't affect your score nearly as much as the people that stay connected...your community. And with a good community comes even more players that stay for extended periods of time. And with more players staying longer comes a bigger community. In the long run, this will turn out to be a good thing for everybody, server operators included. More delisted servers means a higher chance that your server will be shown to people when they refresh the Server Browser. I think we could all go for a little more exposure in this regard, right? But just a quick question, because maybe I missed the point of your first message, but what exactly is the problem they're not addressing?

Re: [hlds] TF2 Blog Post: Server Scoring
i have seen this before. Had a few people that had bad routes that were lagging out when connecting and this happened, but only about 5 times before they connected. Not trying to say this is the case for you, but just saying that it can happen legitly also, but there could be a attack like this too. that part i don't know.

I just had a guy joining/disconnecting really fast 28 times within less than a second on my TF2 server.

Re: [hlds] Windows, Dedicated, Protocol 242
Those servers that report protocol 242 need to be updated. There was a non-required update released on March 13th that corrected it. The required update on March 12th seemed to cause the protocol to be reported as 242 in HLSW. Also, since there was yet another update release last night, you may as well just go ahead and update those "242" servers because you're technically two behind now. -Richard Eid On Sat, Mar 14, 2009 at 6:49 PM, wrote: > Hey Guys I am running L4D server and I notice in HLSW that some of the > servers say > > Windows, Dedicated, Protocol 7 > > and the others say > > Windows, Dedicated, Protocol 242 > > Should all the servers be the same?

Re: [hlds] L4D Client Update
Same here, The only traffic we're getting is from steam group/search key connects. We don't have setmaster anywhere in our configs either, this was only a band aid required back during the release. It seems sv_steamgroup_exclusive and sv_allow_lobby_connect_only are useless up to and including the last patch. I literally have 1000's of bad challenge attempts to get into our servers Still no word from valve...

Re: [hlds] TF2 Blog Post: Server Scoring
Seem to be better now. Less servers with fake clients, but there are still a few ones at the top of the list. Hopefully they'll get delisted soon. 2009/3/14 Clyde cide > Here is what I love Msleeper > > http://steamcommunity.com/groups/nof7 > > Hopefully more people will join! > On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 5:07 PM, msleeper wrote: > > > Since it is such a hot topic, I'd figure I'd let you guys know that 1.) > > I used a throwaway IP for it, 2.) it was only up for 44 hours - it went > > up right before the Scout update came out and went down 2 days later, > > and 3.) it won't be making a return until the next class update. > > > > I'm not really worried about it being delisted anyway since it's not a > > real server or real IP I use, and I'll just use another throwaway IP > > when it eventually does get delisted. > > > > > > On Fri, 2009-03-13 at 13:58 -0700, Nephyrin Zey wrote: > > > That's a good point, is that server delisted yet? > > > > > > On Fri, Mar 13, 2009 at 1:38 PM, Bengt Rosenberger > > > wrote: > > > > And mass-banning servers aka honeypot servers. > > > > > > > > > > ___ > > > 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 > > > ___ > 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

Re: [hlds] how does sv_downloadurl work?
Though it may not apply to you, we had good success with the 64-bit hacked Apache on our Server 2008 x64 box. It made quite a difference. I am not claiming that the 64-bit was "better" but that the hacked version sure did run "happier" on the box than the stock Apache. Yes, we check the useragent and referrer strings on .htaccess. Sure, somebody could still cheat it with their web browser, but directory browsing is still disallowed. I suppose "somebody" may have written a "leech-a-fastdl" addon option, but the logs don't show leech activity after applying the filters. For us, it was "good enough". I suppose some Layer 3 filtering would be next, but not yet necessary. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of DontWannaName!
