I don't think this applies to valve, as the packet contents do not matter in this case, but just the amount of packets hit at the server. Valve did a good job on making sure that random packets do not crash the server, but didn't put any internal limits on the number of packets a server will pr

[hlds] corrupt server query replies

2006-12-20 Thread Wojciech H
I have noticed that some servers have corrupted replies when they have more than 56 (around) players playing. I haven't managed to put my finger on it exactly, but it doesn't seem to happen when the server is loaded with bots, but perhaps only human players. Also, even the steam client displays co

Just noticed that the implementation of the new query protocol slightly differs compared to the HL2 servers. HL2 servers still respond with a null challenge, while HL1 requires you to send something (ie. FF FF FF FF). I made the mistake of not sending challenge bytes, perhaps there is someone els

Re: [hlds] VALVe hide our sv_downloadurl paths!

2005-06-06 Thread Wojciech H
What you did with your .htaccess file is deny anyone from downloading except your game servers. So if your game server decided to use the sv_downloadurl to download a map for a strange reason (maybe it does not have it already?) it would be able to. One way to protect it is if you have a php scri
