Delayed Restarts

[nosit1]

When ever a Garry's Mod server crashes, it takes TCadmin 5-10 minutes to realize that it's down. Why is it taking so long, it should be more responsive.

can u tell me how u got a gmod server on tcadmin?

[nosit1]

Download the game configuration file from the

Game Configs==>Inport==>

Short Name (GMOD10)==>

Relative Executable (<drive letter>:\<Game Install Folder>\GMOD10\srcds.exe)==>

Relative Working Location (" ":\" "\GMOD10\)==>

Relative User Files (" ":\" "\GMOD10\garrysmod)==>

Games File Folder Name (The folder name exactly as it's listed in game installs)==>

Compatability for (Half Life 2)==>

HLDS Update Name (garrysmod).

 

That's about it, change the ports and such to the desired starting.

so add file GMOD10 to gameinstalls and its up?

[nosit1]

You have to make sure the files are in the GMOD10 folder (platform, garrysmod, css, HL2 etc.)

[ZaN22]

yes hlds "garrys mod"

 

Do u know how to lock fps on game servers? and how to get the gpanel onliine, should i buy hosting from tcadmin to host it?

[nosit1]

It's a little tricky, but right now I'm having trouble with garrysmod and restarting, unless it's by hand.

[ZaN22]

locking fps is through tcadmin or server.cfg? and how to host the gpanel, its cool, i understand u goota know how to restrat the server its cool

[nosit1]

The web panel can be hosted on the same box as the servers are if you have IIS 6.0 installed and you can just lock FPS with +fps_max <insert FPS>

[ZaN22]

is that in server.cfg? +fps_max 300?

The game is not crashing then, it stops responding. If the game process crashes it takes about 5 seconds for TCAdmin to see it is no longer running and restart it.

 

If the game hangs, but is still running then it takes longer to restart because we do not query the server every second to see if it responds. That would lag the hell out of your games.

Put it in your command line.

[nosit1]

I'd suggest in the command line. Are you running some form of a SRCDS booster?
