Re: [hlds] TF2 Server laggy above 20 players
Any chance you could expand on the tweaking you performed?

Due to a colo relocation, we're temporarily hosting with a GSP that's strictly Linux and we've seen some sporadic performance issues. After a bunch of tweaking everything has since stabilized, but not nearly as robust as our Win2k3 box above. The map load bug seems to transgress platforms.

[hlds] rcon disconnect because of long banlist?
Hi, We recently increased the number of bans on our CSS-servers from around 3 000 to around 14 000. We use a script that via rcon-listid fetches all bans from all servers, synchronizes with a master database, and distributes new bans to all servers. However after increasing the number of bans, listid doesn't work anymore when issued via rcon. I ran listid in HLSW and simply got the following (other commands verified to work): 22:31:54 listid 22:31:54 HLSW NOTE: Disconnected The server console verifies that it has received the command with 'rcon from 80.202.19.13:63412: command listid'. When running listid from the server console, all 14 000 bans are listed correctly. Is this expected behaviour of rcon when transferring huge amounts of data? If so, can rcon be instructed to allow larger amounts of data?

As a matter of fact, my country was rated by the UN as the best country to live in for the 7th time in a row last year. I'm not complaining. What I _am_ complaining about is people complaining about things that really aren't worth complaining about. Such as gas prices that are still so low that they have just recently broken half the price of most European countries. Including oil-producing and -exporting nations such as my own. If you want to complain, I am sure there's a bunch of worthy campaigns you may sign up for. But complaining about gas-prices? And at the same time flaunting your Pontiac and gas-guzzling habits? Please, give me a break! Oh, and I've spent a full year in your country. To be more specific, I stayed in one of the richest areas: Right north of Palm Beach. And I was not impressed.

[hlds] Mega-servers
Hi, Even though we all now that Valve's optimisations over the last year have led to massive increases in CPU usage, there are some servers out there that have a capacity of up to 64 players. Although most of these servers run at a tickrate of 66, I have seen at least one 60-player 100 tick server. Is anyone on this list running such servers? What kind of hardware is required for mega-servers? I have a problem believing that even a Xeon 5160 at 3.0GHz is capable of running 64 players smoothly, even at 66 ticks.

Re: [hlds] Mega-servers
Sure, but as I mentioned: I have a problem believing that even the most potent model, the 5160 at 3.0GHz, will be able to run 64 players smoothly. Can you or anyone else confirm that such a CPU is capable of doing that at 66 ticks? The way I see it: A 3.0 GHz Woodcrest is up to ~1.5 times faster than the previous generation. So comparable to a 4.5 GHz previous-generation Xeon. A 2.8GHz old Xeon can run about 20 players at 100 ticks one one CPU, so the 3.0GHz Woodcrest should do 4.5/2.8 * 20 = 32 players at 100 ticks. This is of course just a ballpark-estimate (and at 100ticks, not 66) but since 32 is so far from 64, it is also the reason why I am having problems imagining a non-overclocked Woodcrest performing at such levels.

Re: [hlds] Voice causes high ping
Having rocks in your head would help. Knowing a bit or two about computers would also help, but in a different and hopefully more satisfying manner. For instance: If RAM were the bottleneck for a given app, then running it in an emulated environment where the environment itself doesn't expend all resources may be a good idea. Windows typically uses more RAM than Linux, and so it is quite possible that a Windows-app which meets memory constraints in Windows may perform better in Linux on the same machine. An emulation layer has to be a real piece of crap to be worse than using swap. Oh, and by the way: WINE, Wine Is Not an Emulator. So there ;) Cheers, Einar Adam Sando wrote: Agreed, and as Nick pointed out, the ad is a marketing pitch by the company to lure you in. To try put it in perspective - take the new SNES emulator developed for Xbox 360. The first version ran crap because the coder has to EMULATE what the original OS and hardware is doing. In any type of hosted OS/Application model (MS VS and VMWare are hosted models) where the emulation layer sits on top of the OS, you would have to have rocks in your head to think an OS running within another OS yields better performance. Even with Hypervisor technology, you still incur a performance hit. Maybe its the secret though... maybe if I install linux, then Emulate an XP install, all my games will run better than a straight XP install.

[hlds] Converting demo to movie
Does there exist an automated/semiautomated way to convert a CS/CSS demo to an avi, mpeg or similar video file? the perfect solution would be a simple tool which takes a demo files as argument and spits out a movie.

Re: [hlds] Converting demo to movie
Thank you, but that method is way too manual. I am looking for something which will just convert demos without any human interaction like clicking with a mouse at specific places on a screen. Like typing dem2avi mydemo.dem and receiving mydemo.avi.

Once you have your AVI you should run some sort of compression on it, VirtualDub (www.virtualdub.org) should be useful for this.
