Munra, Looks like you got what you wanted, you set? If not I can zip up and attach the file here that I use. I also use HPET and run 2 1000fps private TF2 servers and people generally see a difference. I'm not sure it's the 1000fps more than it's the fact that this server runs only 6 servers. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of HooTs Administrator Sent: Thursday, March 10, 2011 2:26 PM To: 'Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list' Subject: Re: [hlds] 2008 R2 Timer Resolution Very true, plus you'll only see the difference on very large servers at 32 players or more. -Original Message- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Team BOOM!

Re: [hlds] 2008 R2 Timer Resolution
There would be no difference in performance with HPET on or off for anything under 1000fps. I will tell you that running 1000fps servers is heavy on the cpu. My 24 slot 500fps uses approximately 7% cpu when full, while one 14 slot private 1000fps TF2 server will run at about 24% cpu load when full. I dedicate one private server per two cores. I'm running a Core2Quad Q9550 just as a point of reference.

Re: [hlds] 2008 R2 Timer Resolution
Below a link to the one I use on my Windows 2008 64-bit dedicated server. http://www.boomgaming.net/downloads/HiResTimer.zip This timer requires the Microsoft .net 1.1 framework package be loaded on your box first. It can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=262D25E3-F589-48 42-8157-034D1E7CF3A3 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=262D25E3-F589-4 842-8157-034D1E7CF3A3displaylang=en displaylang=en Once installed, the timer runs as a Windows Service so there's no need to logon and start it each time the box is rebooted. It works perfectly for me and has for several years. Just a quick note about the Microsoft.net 1.1 framework installer. When installing the .net package, you will likely get a warning from Windows that the package is not designed to run under Windows 2008, but it will allow you to ignore the warning and continue with the install. I have loaded Microsoft.net 1.1 on at least 25 Windows 2008 dedicated server boxes and never once had an issue with it screwing anything up.

Re: [hlds] 2008 R2 Timer Resolution
Wow, 5 lines of code for the HiRes Timer and someone pastes them into a project that requires .NET and builds an installer... Had he used VC6 he'd have a single EXE file Windows-Service that'd run on Win 3.11 and up. (just kidding) Anyway, how much FPS do you guys actually get with this thing? Up to 512? At least thats what I've always been getting on all my 2003 servers, without running a booster. I tried it once and it didnt make a difference.

Re: [hlds] 2008 R2 Timer Resolution
In most cases, in order to get 1000 FPS in a Source server under Windows, you need to have a processor and motherboard that supports High Precision Event Timer(HPET) - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Precision_Event_Timer on its chipset and BIOS features, run a timer booster program and set your server's rates accordingly (I have not tried it with just HPET enabled and no timer software, so I cannot attest it working with HPET only). I have successfully run 1000 FPS servers but honestly, in spite of all the hype about 1000 FPS from some gamers, no one I personally know has ever been able to tell the difference between 500 FPS and 1000 FPS while playing games. As for what we get for FPS with booster software, as long as you set your rates (fps_max setting) properly, a Source server should get a consistent 512 fps.
