ZeroDamage October 18, 2008 Share ZeroDamage Member October 18, 2008 Just know that TF2 is very demanding and may need half of the servers' resources alone depending on the player count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stutters October 18, 2008 Author Share stutters GC Alumni October 18, 2008 from what we've heard, zps is the most cpu intensive srcds game. we can monitor the actual resources, so there's no harm in trying. note: as a temporary solution, we'd be happy to give any .gc member the opportunity to admin and run one of these servers. if it becomes a permanent server, we'd work it out from there. the board might revoke this offer (i'm a maverick), but i'll bear the brunt of those consequences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroDamage October 18, 2008 Share ZeroDamage Member October 18, 2008 Yeah, I can do the configs. I will just grab a copy from one of the A2 servers and modify as necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samurai nightling October 18, 2008 Share samurai nightling Member October 18, 2008 the other day when i was playing in the CS:S Test server, it seemed to register very well. granted the most people we had in there at one time was 12 i think, but it was still running very smoothly, i liked it. i know some others were saying it was crappy for them though, like vovik i think it was. so we will need more peoples input i think.

NorgmaN October 18, 2008 Share NorgmaN Member October 18, 2008 Do you have something in the retro server to try and migrate others to the new server? I don't mind sitting in there till someone shows... but I'm not seeing much of any action on ANY server! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossad October 20, 2008 Share Mossad Member October 20, 2008 I recieved a pm to reply here regarding a 1.6 server. word on the street is that you might want a 1.6 server. any truth to this? we've got some extra leg room, and i'd like to give it a shot...but we need someone who plays 1.6 regularly to be our .gc presence. is that you? Although I would love for GC/Mmmm to have a 1.6 server I wouldn't be able to be around very much to play on it. I'm married with two kids, I run a business and have very little spare time. With that spare time I do enjoy playing 1.6 and would play on that server but I doubt I would have that much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boiler October 21, 2008 Share boiler Member October 21, 2008 I played on retro and the new one this past weekend. The new one was smooth as silk for me, good latency and little to no choke. There were a couple of times where choke spiked to 150 or something at the beginning of rounds, but that went away after a few seconds. There were a few people that complained that they were showing everyone on CT side, lots of choke, etc. but after leaving then retrying everything was fine. Not sure what the deal was there, but I sure didn't have that problem. Overall I didn't notice a big difference from retro, but I only played a few maps on the new one so it is hard to tell.

stutters October 21, 2008 Author Share stutters GC Alumni October 21, 2008 we've got a few more weeks with this server. we need to coordinate a community wide stress test, which we will, but i think we need to iron out some of the settings, first. unrelated: anyone have a trial code for tcadmin? their sales guys refuse to call me back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroDamage October 21, 2008 Share ZeroDamage Member October 21, 2008 A real test will be with the TF2 server full while everyone is also playing on the CS server. That will be hard to coordinate and make happen. The TF2 server just needs some people to seed it or a bunch of us go in for a bit and let it fill up on its own.

stutters October 21, 2008 Author Share stutters GC Alumni October 21, 2008 ideally, all 3 (css, zps, and tf2) should be in use. coming from the game server provider, zps should be our biggest resource concern, and based on server traffic (to the current zps server), sounds reasonable.

ZeroDamage October 21, 2008 Share ZeroDamage Member October 21, 2008 I do not think the game server provider is right on that. Unless zps is poorly coded, it should be no harder on a system than CS. With TF2, there is none stop explosions, people dying, sentries being built etc etc that the server has to keep track of. In comparison to zps which keeps track of zombies and none zombies, I do not get how zps can be more resource intensive. Maybe there is something to it that I am not aware of....
