AreYouServed Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I've never setup a Source server with TCA before, and am having a problem. My commands line is as follows. <table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText">Quote:</td></tr><tr><td class="quote"> -game cstrike -console +ip 123.123.123.123 -port 27015 +maxplayers 12 +exec server.cfg +map de_aztec -tickrate 100 </td></tr></table> My server.cfg file is as follows. <table border="0" align="center" width="90%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td class="SmallText">Quote:</td></tr><tr><td class="quote"> // server name hostname "HOSTNAME" // rcon passsword rcon_password "changeme" // Server password sv_password "" // server cvars mp_friendlyfire 0 mp_footsteps 1 mp_autoteambalance 1 mp_autokick 0 mp_flashlight 0 mp_tkpunish 1 mp_forcecamera 0 sv_alltalk 0 sv_pausable 0 sv_cheats 0 sv_consistency 1 sv_allowupload 1 sv_allowdownload 1 sv_maxspeed 320 mp_limitteams 2 mp_hostagepenalty 5 sv_voiceenable 1 mp_allowspectators 1 mp_chattime 10 sv_timeout 65 // round specific cvars mp_freezetime 6 mp_roundtime 5 mp_startmoney 800 mp_c4timer 45 mp_fraglimit 0 mp_maxrounds 0 mp_winlimit 0 mp_playerid 0 mp_spawnprotectiontime 5 // bandwidth rates/settings sv_minrate 0 sv_maxrate 0 decalfrequency 10 sv_maxupdaterate 100 sv_minupdaterate 10 // server logging log off sv_logbans 0 sv_logecho 1 sv_logfile 1 sv_log_onefile 0 // operation sv_lan 0 sv_region 255 // execute ban files exec banned_user.cfg exec banned_ip.cfg </td></tr></table> I have the FPS Boost script running, but for the life of me, I can't get this damned server to run as a 100 Tick Server. I'm sure its something simple that I'm overlooking. Am hoping to have some other eyes look at it, and hopefully spot what I've done wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Connect to this server 66.228.114.6:27015 And tell me what your netgraph says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Bahahah! Its a two slot test server I just setup a few minutes ago! I'll go add a few slots to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Go ahead and give it a shot now. I restarted it and made it 10 slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AreYouServed Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Heh. My In rate is hovering around 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 That server is ticked to 100. So it must be in your server.cfg or your rates clientside. I will assume your clientside rates are ok for the moment, and suggest changing this in your server config file from waht you have now. // bandwidth rates/settings sv_minrate 15000 sv_maxrate 25000 decalfrequency 10 sv_maxupdaterate 120 sv_minupdaterate 50 Also, a boosted server normally means the FPS is boosted as well. Add "+max_fps 600" (without quotes) to the end of your commdnline to get 500 fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24play1 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 You are running windows media player on the server yes? Or the booster program found in the tcadmin downloads section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AreYouServed Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 ARG! Update released...lol I'll give that a try once I update our servers. Yes, I am running Media Player. I'm running the booster program referenced in Whispers Tickrate Wiki (http://www.bats-clan.co.uk/whispers_wiki_tickrate.html). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Also make sure your client side settings are set to allow the increased updaterate as well. I figure you would have them set, but doesnt hurt to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AreYouServed Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 Ignorant Question: How do I check my client? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I think the file is called default.cfg within your steam folder> gamename The commands are cl_cmdrate 100 cl_updaterate 100 You can actually just open the console in-game and type them in. On another note, the server I had setup up above, I forgot to change the rates... I think if you connect now, you should see 100 in your netgraph?

AreYouServed Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 I hopped onto the server that you created, after making sure my client was setup properly. The InRate hovered at around 60-70 while I was still. When moving, and shooting, it would spike in access of 100. Does this translate to it running as 100 tic? I was always under the impression that where the rate hovered, is what it was set at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I am not much into boosting servers myself, so the info I am gathering is strictly from other sources I find around the inet. I have never paid much attention to my netgraph either. Maybe one of our other clients can give a better explaination than me? I can confirm that the server is running at 100 tick by simply sending the mani_tickrate to the server via rcon, which displays back that the server is indeed set to 100 tick. After that I am rather lost as to rates etc.. as I never personally have played with them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AreYouServed Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 Maybe someone can even connect to my server to verify my results. 69.28.221.235:27015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24play1 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hi ECF I thought that mani showed the ticrate as specified in the setting but was never actually the true setting as shown by using the netgraph I could be spouting crap though but I always thought that was the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Could be... Again, I am no CS Source guru by any means. I am simply posting info that I have found on the net in regards to it. From my initial view of it, it seems like the rates are dependant on the settings that you place in the server.cfg file, and by adding the -tickrate 100 to the commandline along with running WMP. After that, you are on your own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougK94 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Rob, I connected to your server and it does look like it is running at 100.... But then I also am no CS guru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
