[hlds_linux] jump back lag ;p
Maybe it's just a setting .. I've got some lag issues, it is as if you play the game and then send back a few ticks. Then its ok for some time and then it happens again at random. Feels like I set some setting incorrectly, because it really feels like you get pushed back a few moments in time. Have this on CS:S, although the TF2 on the same box runs fine for me.

In my case its all the players on the server (CS:S) .. I tested it myself and had the same issue. Normally if just 1 or 2 scream lag you can ignore it because it could be on their end.

I've noticed this on TF2. The instant when connecting players finish loading the level and enter the world the server fps sometimes dips for a split second and you get a lag effect like you mention. You'll see little orange triangles on the interpolation graph right as a player joins when the lag occurs. It doesn't happen every time a player joins, but it's been particularly noticeable lately with all the client crashes. A big group of players will rejoin simultaneously and there will be a few corresponding fps dips as they re-enter. On 3/7/2012 1:47 AM, Eric Riemers wrote: Maybe it's just a setting ..

For those interested: https://github.com/Snelvuur/SSMS/blob/master/replay/crawler.php is the part that looks up the id's and goes to youtube. A working example (as it shows in the crawler) is on http://www.youtube.com/user/LethalZone , it auto favorites the movies that where done on our servers.

[hlds_linux] CS:GO hostname setting?
Valve, Although i don't see it happening with the older games, but if you are going to make CS:GO the same model as tf2/css (so we can run servers) Please try and make something that people can just add their favorites based on hostname. Just set a hostname var in the server.cfg and let the client save that. That way when there are ip changes, your server doesn't die because the playerbase is gone. (ip changes do happen more then we like, not always in our hand) I'll be realistic, if we get this hostname stuff by Christmas I would still be a happy person.

It would be really sweet if it included some kind of widget for the main screen that updates every so often and a notification system to alert if a server hasn't responded more then 10 checks or so.

I posted to these lists back in October looking for people to test my HLDS/SRCDS query app for Android. Several people responded, and I would like to thank everyone who volunteered to test the app for their time and their feedback. This app started as a small independent study project for my computer science degree, but like most of my projects, it grew into something much larger than originally planned. Now, I'm pleased to say that the app is finally finished! It is called CheckValve, and yes, it's open source under the GPL (several people asked me if it would be). If you are interested in using it, please visit the following URL: http://sites.google.com/site/checkvalveapp I threw the website together in one night, so it is a work in progress that I hope to improve, but it gets the job done. You can get the .apk file from the Files section of the website, and you can install it on your phone using one of the free app installer apps available in the Market. Or you can use the adb tool provided with the Adnroid SDK, if you happen to have that installed. I have not yet uploaded the app to the Market, because I am cheap and I don't want to pay the $25 fee, but I'll probably do that soon. Here is a list of the changes that have been made since the original version I posted a few months ago: * Fixed a bug that caused Show Players to fail sometimes on L4D2 servers * Fixed a crash when changing the orientation of the screen while the progress dialog was showing * Fixed the player search feature * Fixed a bug that caused the server list to refresh in the background whenever the Edit button was clicked in the Manage Servers dialog * Fixed a bug that caused the server list to refresh in the background whenever the Edit Server option was selected in the context menu * Fixed a bug that caused the first letter of the first player's name to be missing in the Show Players results * Fixed a bug that caused the app to re-run the player search query if the phone was rotated while on the Search Results screen * Fixed a bug that caused the app to re-ping all of the servers if the phone was rotated while on the the Ping Servers screen * Made the Manage Server List, Search Results, and Ping Servers interfaces fullscreen * Added confirmation dialog for server deletion * Added the ability to move a server up or down in the list * Added progress dialogs for ping and player search * Updated the Querying Servers progress dialog so it won't show its title bar * Removed row highlighting in the player search results * Added the GPLv3 license Here is a list of things that would be cool, but are not in the app: * Drag-and-drop servers up or down in the list * RCON support * Show server chat messages * Background server checks * Alerting the user if a server is down This is juts a wish list.

That's the solution to this, Valve need to speak to the people who wrote Steam about how they did it ;) Seriously though, surely all that autoupdate needs to do is, instead of outputting the console messages over and over like it currently does, is to issue a quit. The restart will then update. That's what I do, after all, when the console spams the messages, type 'quit' in console. What's the big deal I'm missing with making it do that?

The average gamer is in their mid 30's, and is using a credit card to purchase their new gaming accounts. Banning the use of the credit card that was used to purchase the account that was used to hack with, is the single most effective way to prevent the hacker from simply using that card to buy a new account to hack with. Furthermore: Since the mac addresses of network hardware can be spoofed, there is no way (that I'm aware of) to effectivly ban a computer from steam, or any other gaming platform. The only real way to effectivly keep hackers off of you're server, is to train you're admins to detect them, and then harass the hacker so much, that they quit you're server. Most hackers are stupid and do not even know how to spoof their MAC address, so if you IP ban them, it may take them days to get back on you're server, due to the fact that they also probably use cable, and cannot simply release and quickly renew their IP address, unless it's dynamic. Then also use GeoIPlocation to check where that hacker was playing from, and keep it in a database to compare with the next hacker, in order to see if it may be the same player who was previously caught hacking. Then use some sort of tool or plugin to notify server admins that a player in the hacker database has entered the server, and too keep an eye on him. I run HL1 mods, and use HLTV to record demos of all players 24/7. This will provide a good way of watching these hackers when you're not on the server. Valve could easily come up with a solution that would make it very hard for hackers, but it all comes down to $'s The thing is, when a company starts buidling any game. SECURITY needs to be the upper most important thing in their minds. There are so many bugs and glitches in both HLDS and SRCDS, that if fixed could make it much easier for server admins to catch and deal with hackers. EXAMPLE: When running HLDS on any Linux platform and recording a game demo while playing from a windows OS, the demos are corrupted when played back. Valve still hasn't fixed that problem.

As I understand, the score system works that when a player joins, he has -15 points, and (s)he then gains a point pr minute played up to a max of 60 points pr. day. This means that a player has to stay on the server for at least 15 minutes to break even serverscore wise, and this is where I see a problem. My servers have gained a (small) contingency of regular players, but, when one of these join and finds the server empty, maybe idles for a minute or two, and then leaves (and who can blame them), they are unwillingly punishing a server they would like to play on, and having 10-15-20 of these players doing this over an afternoon punishes the server HARD, as I understand it. Have I understood this correctly? And, if so, would there be any willingness on Valve behalf to change this, so that maybe server score is only regulated when theres a minimum of, for instance 6, players online? Otherwise, its pretty hard to keep a server populated via the quickplay functionality. /Peter ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

[hlds_linux] l4d2 check up?
On a different side note for l4d2.. I use forks, works just fine. If a update comes out i send out a signal on the management port to do a shutdown (it will wait till all forks are down and then do a restart to update) This works fine too, but my tool checks if something is up or not, so if one of the forks is still up it will try to send a restart again because it doesn't know if that fork has been restarted or not. I solved this by saying in my tool that the its down and should not be checked untill it went down (unresponsive) and then back up. But how do i know it is back up again? If it restarts within a minute (my poll time) it could still think its still going down. So... How can i see if a fork has just recently been restarted because of a update? Is there a query method for l4d2 which shows you that the fork in question is awaiting a restart (because of a shutdown for instance) - this would be very handy. The only thing i could find is do a stats and check for uptime, but that is just dirty. Ofcourse i could always just do a .quit but i hate to get kicked in the middle of a game, i think most agree on that.

I don't know if this already exists or not. Let's call it automatic mute management. Since you've said that the server actually receives the signal from clients to mute other players, and thus it restricts the voice data, you could count the number of mutes against a player. If a threshold is met. For example, if four people mute a player, he gets muted for everyone at the server. A server with a local administrator doesn't have these kinds of problems, but local admins are often not around, so automation like this could be helpful. I have found that players are very reluctant to kick or ban other players, even for the worst cases of voice spamming. Sazpaimon wrote: Since the server actually handles the muting (it decides whether or not to send voice packets to the client), it can be done with a Sourcemod plugin. I have written something that hooks into when a client someone and stopped it from running, so muting is essentially impossible (I have it enabled on a micspam server). So it shouldn't be too difficult to write something that also stops people from spamming voice commands in addition to muting the mic.

We just got fairly overloaded with responses and a lot of them weren't clear which is why I posted up this message on the list a few days ago: So just to be clear, if you are just interested in hosting a server for the beta and you got an e-mail from me requesting you fill out an NDA, please ignore that NDA part :) You won't need to sign an NDA to host a server for the beta. That was mainly meant for GSP companies. If I missed anyone that was interested in hosting a server for the beta, or a GSP, please e-mail with either the subject RO2 Beta Server if you are just interested in hosting a server or GSP interested in the RSP and RO2 beta if you are GSP. That way I can keep all these e-mails straight :) As we are firming up our plans, it looks like for the beta we'll probably just release the beta server files over HLDS and anyone can host a server if they want to. Originally we were planning to do something much smaller and just work directly with a few GSPs and trusted admins for the last phase of the beta. But to be quite frank the pre-sales for the game have been going so well it looks like we'll need WAY more servers than anticipated :) We're still solidifying how we'll handle ranked servers during the beta period as well so stay tuned for more info on that.

Looking back I should have made them two different messages, because it was a little tricky to tell who was interested in hosting a server for the beta, and who was a GSP interested in being involved with the ranked server program. So just to be clear, if you are just interested in hosting a server for the beta and you got an e-mail from me requesting you fill out an NDA, please ignore that NDA part :) You won't need to sign an NDA to host a server for the beta. That was mainly meant for GSP companies. If I missed anyone that was interested in hosting a server for the beta, or a GSP, please e-mail with either the subject RO2 Beta Server if you are just interested in hosting a server or GSP interested in the RSP and RO2 beta if you are GSP. That way I can keep all these e-mails straight :) Thanks, John Gibson President Tripwire Interactive On Sat, Jul 23, 2011 at 4:25 PM, John Gibson j...@tripwireinteractive.comwrote: Hopefully it is OK to send this message out here, I thought it was the best way to get in touch with as many server admins/GSPs as possible.

Red Orchestra 2 Beta - sometime in the not too distant future we are going to be doing a much larger scale beta for Red Orchestra 2. We estimate we'll need anywhere between 100-300 servers up at the peak to meet the demand.
