RE: [hlds] Re: [hlds][OT] Server Banwidth/Memory/CPU details
He means: hlds -console In win32 -console does not launch the GUI and uses a LOT LESS cpu. The gui is a cool interface but it REALLY REALLY REALLY cranks up the cpu required to run a server. To the best of my knowledge the linux version ONLY has console mode and has no gui interface. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ooks Server Sent: Friday, October 29, 2004 10:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds] Re: [hlds][OT] Server Banwidth/Memory/CPU details What is "console mode"?

What is "console mode"? Does the linux version not have a console like the win32 version does? Or are you also running the win32 version under linux? - Original Message - From: "James Nine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 11:17 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Re: [hlds][OT] Server Banwidth/Memory/CPU details > The linux version works fine.

Re: [hlds] Re: [hlds][OT] Server Banwidth/Memory/CPU details
The linux version works fine. I use the console mode in the win32 version currently anyway. I also wrote a gnome frontend for the hlds program, but I never used it,because as I said earlier, I use the console mode. - Original Message - From: "Ooks Server" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2004 5:28 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Re: [hlds][OT] Server Banwidth/Memory/CPU details >> >>Could somebody explain to me why some people run the windows hlds under >>linux? tnx :) >> > > > I do it: > > 1) Because what I've heard about linux hlds over the past few years > from > this and other lists is that the linux binaries blow chunks.

Tnx for the explanation :) I'm actually going to try the linux version when I get a chance just so I can say I use the win32 because I used the linux version and I know from first hand experience that it blows chunks.
