Re: [hlds] Server Bandwidth Help?
I spent quite a while looking at this and unfortunately they have made some quite unfortunate design decisions with the project, which make it mostly unsuitable for standard hosting. This is mainly due to its reliance on dbus which is a Local only protocol meaning that remote management without additional services isn't possible. This is really unfortunate and I hope they change their architecture to use a more suitable framework in the future.

I have only experimented with it on Windows and I don't even know what dbus is, but if its no good then its unfortunate.

In the same sense that they need ventrilo to use ventrilo, or teamspeak to use teamspeak, yes.

Re: [hlds] Server Bandwidth Help?
Ventrilo is easier to admin, but Teamspeaks interface is better imo, I find it hard to get round Ventrilo. Clyde cide wrote: Ventrilo is the easiest to admin imo. Either way they have a killer discount on both the server and vent or TS look for the coupon code on the front page!

So, right now counter-strike.com would be my best bet. Thanks for all the reccomendatoins though. Also, one more question. Which is better: Teamspeak or Ventrillo? Or is it something wierd, like, to use Ventrillo i need Teakspeak?

Re: [hlds] Server Bandwidth Help?
is it 500kbps, or 500KBps? Makes a huge difference. If it's 500kbps - mine would die at 4.at 500KBps, probably 16-20 if not more. Original Message Subject: Re: [hlds] Server Bandwidth Help?

Re: [hlds] Server Bandwidth Help?
if this is on your home connection and assuming that it is, if you set the max rate to 5000 and max cmdrate and update rate you can get around 10 people maybe 12... also make sure that you disable voice chat since that will lag you out and don't do downloads of maps Michael Secord wrote: is it 500kbps, or 500KBps?
