Although there is not much comparison to do. Everyone knows x.1d is a worthless dog in performance. I think I will be sticking with the x.0c patched version. I hope valve is listening becuase they haven't said much. As they can see 99.999% of the admins that operate their product want to revert back to 3.1.1.0c. I think if valve took a pole and asked which would you rather us do, keep developing and doing bug fixes on top of x.1 or would you rather us dump that development tree and restart all work on x.0c. I think we all know what the put come would be. VALVe, No one want x..1. Release a a x.0d that the ONLY difference is the fix for this exploit and we will all be happy leave you alone.

Hi there. Before ranting on me, please note I put [OT] in the subject, as this is off topic. Thanks. `:) Tonight, I am trying to get together a stress test for my server. This test will be completely limited by CPU usage, rather than line speed. I have a completely stripped install of Linux running 3 10 player HLDS servers on a PIII 550mhz. My goal is to see if the machine can handle 3 full 10 player servers. I run no plugins what so ever, the machine is dedicated to HLDS. If you're willing to participate in the stress test and help me out, please stop by #teamelysium on irc.gamesnet.net tonight at 9:00PM PST. That is when the stress test will start. You can read more on www.teamelysium.net if you please.

* more match rules (previously : roundlimit only) :
timelimit, co-rules, winlimit

The only thing I did was get the Hi-res overlay maps for those that didnt have them. I ran the proxy on a debian box across the desk when i was an admin on Demon servers. A few of the admins would use it to get demo evidence of cheating, but it could be a real pain as the demo's sometimes wouldnt work or they would have weird player modles on playback.

I was just doing some thinking, HLTV doesn't require waypoints or anything for the cameras does it?

Never seen that problem before, but I haven't used HLTV since 1.4. And yes if you record a demo, via a client connected to the HLTV proxy, it will allow you to flick through all the players when you replay. It used to be pretty buggy though, so I would record on both the HLTV proxy server and the client connected to it just in case. I read somewhere that if you begin recording before the map is loaded it grabs all the necessary textures etc. and is more reliable.

The standard neat cmaera angles and such that I see on most HLTV servers isn't there. Everything is automatically first person. I can do standard spectating things just fine but no neat camera tricks like normal. I've gone through the documentation and can't find any notes on this?? Another quick question, if I do an rcon record demo.dem - will teh server record an HLTV demo - with the ability to click through everyone? Or can I just record a demo through a client and it'll have all the standard features of HLTV? If this isn't the propper place to post these questions, please let me know. :) Thank you, Joshua ___ 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 ___ 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 ___ 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

(at the schindig we had before it was a different computer running hlds [it was generally better in all aspects, I don't remember specifics] but we experienced catastrophic packet loss in the 16 - 21 player range) the network was three 16 port linksys switches uplinked into a 5 port linksys switch that had this and another gameserver on it. Everyone plugged into the 16 port switches. We'd play alright for a while (about 10 min) and then pings went into the toilet (they averaged about 500ms at this point). The server continued to run through this. Oh yeah, it was CS 1.4 Anyway, what can I do to avoid these problems at the next party? I'm not really sure if it's realistic to go for the 32 players, so I'm anxious to see what you guys have to say.
