Or, better yet, re-think what they are doing. http://linuxgames.com/?dataloc=articles/hl2lament/ I'll admit that I've been trying to move away from games on a computer and toward a console-only gaming existence. In the end, however, I'm still a person who really enjoys playing a good game, even when the little Richard Stallman in me doesn't want to support those non-free computer platforms. (For the record, I view consoles more like appliances than computers, which is why you won't see me screaming for a source release for Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness for the PS2 so the community can fix its imperfections.) So I've been trying to decide how I feel about the upcoming release of Valve Software's Half-life 2. If it turns out as well as the original, or perhaps even better, can I bear the self- denial of not playing it? Should I break down and play it on my wife's Windows 2000 machine, provided it even meets the minimum specifications? Wait for WineX to support it, if it can support it, and play it under Linux? Should I throw in the proverbial towel and get an Xbox, thereby sticking to my console-only path? My own inner conflicts leave me wondering where other Linux users, especially the gamers, are going to end up. Time for a little recap of what has happened, where we are, and what is possible, just to give the situation context. In the beginning, when I was a Windows gamer, I played the original Half-life on my lowly K6-2/266 and Voodoo2 (12Mb) as soon as it came out, even getting a cheesy black cap with a day-glow orange Half-life logo on the front for pre- ordering. Over that holiday season, I finishd the game and loved just about every minute of it. The final bits were annoying, but it had a great ending, especially for a first-person shooter. Early the next year, I played lots of Team Fortress Classic when Team Fortress 2 failed to materialize, and then gradually gave it all up. When I moved to Linux full-time at the end of 1999 I sold my Half-life CD to a friend for $5. Since, I've even considered getting the PS2 version (it has sold new for $10) just so I could have it around to replay and possibly try out the co-op experience. Now, five years later, a sequel is on the verge of release. In the meantime, Linux gaming has seen a rise and a fall in synchronization with the rise and fall of the now-defunct Loki Games. Since that fall various games, mostly first person shooters, have made their way to Linux in the form of dedicated servers and the occasional player client. It's seemed a sad state of affairs for a long time, and my dismay has led to my gradual detachment from the Linux gaming scene. Given my perception of a moribund Linux gaming scene, I was a little surprised when I checked GameSpy's stats page and realized that ten of the top twenty most active games are available on Linux with native clients: Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, Unreal Tournament 2003, Quake 3: Arena, America's Army: Operations, Neverwinter Nights, Unreal Tournament, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Tribes 2, and Quake II. Sidestepping, for the moment, that there are only five game engines represented there (Unreal, Q3, NWN, T2, and Q2) and they are mostly all first person shooters and that way too many game names include a colon, this still represents a fairly significant number of options. The most notable exception, of course, is the top game: Half-life. I believe that Half-life has had a Linux dedicated server pretty much since a month or two after its launch. This dedicated server is a headless app that can run on a barebones Linux machine to serve up games to Windows clients. I believe that, without that Linux support, there would be far fewer Half-life servers for all those Windows gamers. There are, after all, only Windows Half- life gamers. A Mac version was developed and then killed by Sierra. The Linux players, which I mention below, are still just using the Windows version, and are still just Windows gamers. What I find surprising is that several new games have arisen and seen fit to put out a Linux version of the client software, as if a token gesture to curry some favor with the Linux geeks they'd like to have running servers for them. Unreal Tournament had a Linux client at launch, even if it was just Glide-only to start with. UT2003 also had a client at launch, this time included on the retail CDs. Shortly before its release Mark Rein even went so far as to characterize

Is there a server side commandline way to query a running hlds server as
to number of players and their pings? maybe telnet to the server port
and send whatever command?
I could scan the proces table for any running hlds
parse the output for the mods/ports/max players or consult the config
files for same. query the running servers for player numbers and ping
look at /proc/PROCESS# for performance stats look at /proc/cpuinfo for
hardware config. look at /proc/loadaverage rpm -qa | awk
'/gcc/{print}/kern/{print}' | sort
do performance samples for 5-10 minutes and normalize them
Then post the results to a webserver that stores it in a mysql database
so that you can sort and search on any key phrase.
Further updates::
add data gather to cron and update your entries over time.

If 56k is no longer practical for playing then 128k probably isn't going to be much better - particularly as international traffic is charged by the MB, so if Steam is downloading lots of files from Speakeasy/wherever it's going to cost people a bomb. Though admittedly the NZ broadband market is remarkably crap, I imagine we're not alone in this. Now now Simon, remember Xtra ARE offering their wonderful new 256kbps DSL pricing scheme, I cant say I didn't need to change my undies after they announced that.

RE: [hlds_linux] VAC, Seriously....
I have a spare machine at home that I have CS installed on, and a random choice of OGC I downloaded a while ago. This is for watching demo's of suspected wall hackers. I was amazed because the version of OGC I downloaded before that was like 6 or something when CSG was still around, and it basically had NO install. You just run the exe, setup a couple hot keys, minimize it then play CS. I can't imagine how you would lock down on the desktop against a hack like this. There was an exe, a dll and an ini file. Thats it. The Cafemangement system polls the processlist every 15 seconds per machine, if there is anything new it alerts us straight away on the front counter which the machine status is too repolled every 15 seconds for all machines. It sees an unlisted process and reports back to us. - Drew ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

RE: [hlds_linux] Command
Well, the system is a dual AMD 2400+. I think I may have to reinstall. The old system was a dual P3 850. I just took my drives out and put them in the new machine without re-installing. I went through the kernel and didn't see any reason why it should work. Ouch.. the next question Was this not what I should have done? The system just came right back up with no issues at all. Ekk, I have had massive issues just with my own personal computer with swapping hard disk drives from an Intel - AMD machines and they have blue screened on occasion. I would highly advise at least recompiling the kernel, if not a full re-install of FreeBSD.

RE: [hlds_linux] Command
Well yeah, thats windows. FreeBSD doesn't seam to want to know the hardware *that well*. So I thought it would be ok. What were the components not recognised, can I help you in any way with finding the correct drivers for these ? I thought about that but what would it do? The kernel is compile to the options epcified in it correct? How would that help? The AMD cpu's are identified as i686 just like the p3's. I looked for AMD flags and couldn't find any. Kernel is defintely the point where you are going to resolve issues like what you are seeing, so I would advise as AMD has to have different compiling flags as these might be automated as prior 4.5 (maybe earlier) I recall AMD having additional optimising options in the kernel. Yeah I am aware of the BSDi based SMP improvements. I was kinda holding out until the stable branch appeared. I know 5.0 is pretty stable. I installed it at home but haven't played with it much once I found out updating and other things I do were pretty much the same. What about CVSUP though? How do you update the code until the stable branch comes out? What if there is a security issue. Like I said, I haven't messed with 5.0 very much at all. I did try to see how CVSUP worked and it didn't for me. My supfile was probably wrong though. Indeed I wouldn't recommend it for more then running HLDS servers atm, as I have not tested the current release for anything further, just a suggestion if you have a Wild side that wants to try something new ;) - Drew ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
RE: [hlds_linux] Players-in-the-sky bug
Turn your cheats off simon ;) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Simon Garner Sent: Friday, 28 March 2003 11:55 a.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds_linux] Players-in-the-sky bug Hi guys/Valve, I was just wondering if you were aware of the following problem. It only started occurring to me since a few weeks (maybe a month or so) ago, so I'm guessing it's an issue with a recent VAC update. Sometimes when I'm playing (I haven't noticed any reproducable conditions that cause it, sorry) I see other players get shifted upward into the sky. It's as if the Y coordinate of the models gets corrupted in the client's rendering. The server still sees the player in the same place, of course - if you shoot at where the player should be, you will hit him, but his model appears to be several metres above this point. Sometimes models go the other way and sink into the ground, also. I said this has only been occurring recently, but actually I have been seeing this for probably a year or more, but previously it would only ever happen at the spawn points (the T spawn on de_train seemed particularly susceptible) when a round started and it would affect the entire team (this has been reported before, I think). However in the last few weeks I've started seeing it happen to individual players, all over the maps and at any time during the round. Perhaps this is a lingering bug in the engine that is now being exacerbated by something in VAC (e.g. the wallhack block?) rather than directly caused by it? When it was just happening to the entire team at spawn, it was not a problem, as it ceases after a few seconds. But a couple of times now I have had it happen to enemies in the middle of battle -- and if you're in an enclosed space, when they get shifted into the sky they often go right through the roof and are effectively invisible. Then they pop round a corner and you get killed by somebody who you can't even see (and you know that this is the reason, because a couple seconds later the effect stops and they appear out of thin air - and no, it's not lag). This is now a serious issue; if this were to occur to a player in the middle of a league match for example, it might conceivably affect the match's outcome. I'm not sure if this might be system or hardware dependent; fwiw I'm running an AMD system with a GF4 Ti4400 and nVidia drivers v4.0.4.1 under WinXP. My flatmate is running an AMD system with a Radeon card under WinXP and tells me he also sees the same thing. If you haven't seen this yourself, here are a couple of screenshots; one shows the whole team effect, and another shows a single player sunk into the ground. The latter persisted for several seconds and gave me quite a fright :). http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/~sgarner/cs/cs_italy0007.jpg http://www.gameplanet.co.nz/~sgarner/cs/de_cbble0020.jpg I'm sure this has happened to others here as well, anybody else got any screenshots or examples? -Simon ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Dualie Athlons? [OT]
Haha, sorry I didn't mean to make an aggressive impression. I appreciate the suggestions and I even re-read everything just incase something had changed :) I was just offering a healthy alternative especially since 5.0 is focused on SMP like the Linux 2.4.x kernel had networking revamped. - Original Message - From: Kevin J.

Re: [hlds_linux] Dualie Athlons? [OT]
FreeBSD 4.6.2 / 4.7 are only classed as RELEASE aswel, there is CURRENT which is the development of 5.0 which soon will become 5.1-RELEASE a word of warning, 5.0 still has a shitload of debugging stuff enabled by default, which slows down its performance enough that you might as well stick w/ the 4.8 release. Drew Broadley said: FreeBSD 5.0 is offically a RELEASE. It may be a RELEASE but it's not a STABLE. There is still debugging code and it is still slow. From the early adopter notes: A certain amount of debugging and diagnostic code is still in place to help track down problems in FreeBSD 5.0's new features. This may cause FreeBSD 5.0 to perform more slowly than 4-STABLE. -Mad ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
RE: [hlds_linux] Dualie Athlons? [OT]
FreeBSD 5.0 is offically a RELEASE. Does that differ, then, from STABLE? RELEASE == STABLE CURRENT == DEV Afaik, that has been the practise I have been following (and have been taught) and had no problems of hitting development kernels or any addition/debugging output. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
