MonsterDK Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi, I've just bought a New Dedicated server to host CSS. The game seems to work fine then will start to lag some time after. Stuttering. Once the game is restarted it is fine again for a while. I've tried leaving the core options all unticked and all ticked. Problems the same. :| Server tick: 66 Server.cfg info: fps_max 300 sv_maxrate 20000 sv_minrate 2500 sv_minupdaterate 66 sv_maxupdaterate 66 Server Specs: Processors: Quad Core Xeon X3210 Memory: 2GB RAM OS: Windows 2003 Server Standard (SP2) Load is never above 3% across all 4 cores. Anyone any ideas if there is anything I need to do to the server with regards to quad core? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WR-Rob Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I run multiple CSS Servers per quad core xeon box. How long before the lag starts to come around? Also have you used anysort of FPSBoosting software? I think the issue is simply the game itself, i find if i leave the box running for 48hours or so the game servers simply dont perform aswell. There for my box is setup to reboot every morning at 4am. This seems to keep everything running nice and smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed this more when the server has 8 people or more in. It is particularly bad at the end of round. The dead bodies of the players jump(glitch) as if there is major lag. Then the round starts and things seems stable again. There is some in game lag while the rounds are in progress as well. Here are the specs of the CSS server and checks I've done: * My server is up to date. * Latest Mani admin on metamod. * meta mod. * FPSBoost (running in the background which I have recently run to try to rod of the problem) Thats all. I do not have es tools or event scripts installed. So there is limited addons here to effect this issue. There is also very little else running on the dedi box to cause this issue.

cyberwolfie Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Put your max rate up or set it to 0 for unlimited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon|Rich Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 It sounds like your mods are causing the lag issue as they are loading up prior to map start. You might check the settings and ideally take off one mod at a time until the server becomes stable again to find out where the problem is. You might also give some thought to optimizing your OS and removing services that aren't being used which should unlock some of the robbed performance on your box.

Everything else is standard. What I did do was put on fpsboost and put the maxfps 600 in the start up line. seems to be sorted. (fingers crossed). Question: Can I go to 1000 FPS?

ECF Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Only if you are running Windows 2008 server. 2003 Server does not support 1000 FPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 We have one running on Win 2k8 without any issues that I have noticed. I think a few others here are running it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamnp Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 TCA seems fine, ZBlock crashes the (game)server hourly though..Keep in mind. Monster, this may sound dumb, but is the server comlpetely up to date? mismatched models can also cause serious skipping and jumping ingame, and weapon skip.
