Re: [hlds_linux] hlds: performance problems in de_aztec
This might be a client-side env_rain problem, see if cl_weather 0 (in the client) fixes the problem. I don't know if there is a server CVAR that will globally disable this, but for test purposes you could use ripent and remove the env_rain entity from the BSP. - Original Message - From: "W0kk3L" To: Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2006 9:18 PM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] hlds: performance problems in de_aztec The CPU usage isn't any different on de_aztec compared to other maps.

[hlds_linux] Zbot on hlds linux
Hi folks, I need to know if there's a way to run zbot on a Cstrike 1.6 dedicated server. Tryin' to proceed like on windows it return a dll error, due to the "game dlls" parameter in liblist.gam that I don't know to set correctly to run the game server with zbot. Anyway I'm interested to everything could make me run bots on a 1.6 linux server. Someone who suggest ?

RE: [hlds_linux] Vac turning off / Server going insecure regularly
you cant read sv_secure from a plugin. or at least its not possible in console to write sv_secure and get a 1 or 0. /Bjorn On Tue, 2 May 2006, Alfred Reynolds wrote: > Why don't you use sv_secure? > > kama wrote: > > Alfred, is it possible to get a read only cvar to check if VAC is > > enabled or not? > > > > /Bjorn > > > > On Mon, 1 May 2006, kama wrote: > > > >> > >> Well, it would be preferably to have a readonly cvar sv_secure that > >> can be > >> queried from within a plugin. > >> > >> /Bjorn > >> > >> On Mon, 1 May 2006, W0kk3L wrote: > >> > >>> As far as i could find... no.
