GTR2 maxplayers limited to 16

[dimitrifrom31]

Hosting only 1 game server of this but its a real pain.

 

My customer would want to increase the slots to 24 however it works only when server gets manually started otherwise it just returns to 16 over and over.

 

I know theres a kind of work around to this but cant find any good info about it. Any1 got an idea?

[dimitrifrom31]

theres no fix for maxplayers, as for lobby use a valid key and make sure u use patch for master query

[Broseph]

So you're just running them manually then?

 

I'm using my own key and the server has been patched..looking into firewall issues but that's never been a problem with any other game.

[dimitrifrom31]

im running 16 slots OR renting dedicated box with rdp access so customers can start em manually

[sethier]

Thank you for your help

 

On Intel DualCore server GTR2 uses only one core

and with only one player the first core the load is 100%

 

Have you experienced this problem?

What is the solution.

 

Thank you

there is no problem and this is normal GTR behaviour.

 

I found a work around but Im not sharing/selling it and I had to spend a very long time on it. Good luck with it, I almost gave up with this.

[Broseph]

Probably something to do with core affinity. I'll post results when I have time to test some things.

Have you tried +fullproc in the commandline. The game is based off of ISI's gMotor engine that may work.
