Re: [hlds_linux] Server list
There is no quick answer. Valve borked the server list. Busy servers now sit idle. Valve thinks it's the next best thing to sliced bread. Those who now have traffic also think it's great. Those that have idle servers that used to be busy think it sucks. In your case, you are basically screwed. - Original Message - From: "Toker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 03, 2004 2:26 PM Subject: [hlds_linux] Server list A while back, steam was handing out server based on the last octet of the IP address.

So, if you have a server on a set of octets with a lot of home connections, you would get more traffic, thus the claims that this favors home based servers. People at home do a refresh and the first servers they see are the other home based servers that have the same ISP that they do. If you are in an IP block that is not used to server home connections, you would not appear first on the list and might experience a drop of traffic. I never play on a server simply because it has a better ping and/or seems to be close to me. I look for specific maps and a certain player count first, and only when I find this do I look at ping. But there has to be more to it. I run an OP4 server, and there are not that many of us out there. Before this change, I had traffic 24/7. Now there is nothing.

Re: [hlds_linux] Traffic slow down on our DoD Server, Need Help!!
I'm not sure what Valve did, but their change does not seem to favor "low bandwidth poorly specced servers run from peoples home PC". I have one of these "low bandwidth poorly specced servers run from peoples home PC" (actually it's a 6 player server that runs at about 4% cpu with a ping of about 30+, depending on how far you are from me) that up until a few weeks ago enjoyed running at peak capacity 24/7 . Now it sits empty. On the [hlds] list, we have been complaining about it for a while now, but as you noticed, Valve has been absolutely silent on this issue. I'm hoping they do something soon because a lot of people are getting quite frustrated and some of us are going to eventually shut down our servers. Maybe they want this to happen so more people will move to HL2? Valve: "We want as many people to run HL2 servers as possible.

Re: [hlds_linux] WON (Game Over)
I think they finally did it. It's dead here on the West Coast. Alas, the infamous day has arrived, and the WON that we have come to love is gone...dead let us all observe a monent of silence for WON, now that Valve has sucessfully pulled the plug on the thousands of customers that still wanted to use WON. - Original Message - From: "Christopher Luk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, August 01, 2004 9:43 PM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] WON (Game Over) > still working in Hong Komg 12:40 GMT+8 2004-08-02. what is happening? > > ruwen wrote: > > >Still working in Germany 19:50 GMT+1 1.8.2004 > > > >[ 01.08.2004 12:32 ] HalfLife wrote: > > > > > > > >>Still working in Denmark!!!! 12:31 pm CET 8/1/2004 > >> > >>/Tuffy > >>- Original Message - > >>From: "Ooks Server" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >>To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >>Sent: Sunday, August 01, 2004 5:50 AM > >>Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] WON (Game Over) > >> > >> > >> > >> > >>>Still working on the West Coast! 8:49 PM PST 7/31/2004 > >>> > >>> > >>>- Original Message - > >>>From: "Marcos Dias" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >>>To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >>>Sent: Saturday, July 31, 2004 6:41 PM > >>>Subject: [hlds_linux] WON (Game Over) > >>> > >>> > >>> > >>> > >>>>This is a multi-part message in MIME format. > >>>>-- > >>>>[ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > >>>>Hello here in Brazil at 22:38 or 10:38PM WON server isn't working more > >>>> > >>>> > >>: > >> > >> > >>>>-- > >>>> > >>>>Adding master server 65.73.232.252:27010 > >>>> > >>>>Out of date.

Valve broke one of the oldest rules in the book: "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". WON wasn't broke, but they still tried to fix it with Steam. It's a very serious flaw when people can't play games they paid for because Steam is down (again). ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

[OT] Re: [hlds_linux] WELL???? Valve??? Are you there?
A bit OT, but really, Valve, that is really really bad business. Assuming that article is true, you really should have allowed option A. Be nice, kiss butts, give them an out, and you will likely get more business (and money). My responce to a nicer approach would be to purchase the necessary licenses. My responce to a letter like that would be for Valve to go to hell and I'd hire my own attorney and duke it out in court. - Original Message - From: "Adam 'Starblazer' Romberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2004 5:01 PM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] WELL Valve???

Re: [hlds_linux] OS opinions please
My server sits in my home office, has a monitor that is connected and on 24/7, and I would NEVER run a screen saver on it.

[hlds_linux] Linux n00b guide needed
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] It is time! I am building a linux box and am about to embrace Linux. So - what is a good distro to use? I considered RedHat, but RedHat as we know it has been discontinued. They are moving to a commercial distro, and Fedora, which is still in early beta, if not alpha. I have Mandrake, and am tempted to join the Mandrake club but I'm not sure it's worth the $$. Who is running hlds on a linux box, and what distro are you using? Once I get it up and running, what kind of gotchas can I look forwards to, running hlds on a linux box? -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
