GameConnectors Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Just wondered if anybody has any experience with this product? I have a couple of CSS clans that want something similar, and have this as an option. Does anybody use it, and is it worth configuring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 They require PHP, PERL, MYSql Server etc... The install directions are pretty straight forward. But I suggest running them on a web server, and not putting all that stuff on a game box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxXx Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Putting this scripts on your game box is really messing it up, it is a chaos of files not to mention the traffic some users manage to get My recommendation: always keep game applications and web applications strictly seperated. In stead of HLSTATS you should check out http://www.psychostats.com since that supports the Back Catalog games and Source Engine, as well they have pretty well done tutorials how to set everything up. As well make sure to not breach their licenses since most of them do not allow to resell it, but i think it should be ok if you take money for the hosting,...even thou I am not even sure about that.

GameConnectors Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 Thanks, I wasn't planning on running it in even the same country, let alone the same box as the games, so thats not an issue Was more a question on usablility and whether its actually worth having for functionality sake.

Chew Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Running hlstatsx on a dual xeon Red Hat Enterprise box with 12 VERY popular servers, I've noticed load times of anywhere between .5% and 1% utilization with full debug logging enabled. HLSTATS/X gets a bad rap because people think "real-time" stats are resource hogs... but I've found actually the opposite. Processing Psycostats is worse than hlstats/x Just my input Chew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalyse Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 I rmember when I set it up abouta year ago I had a problem with it and it would sometimes not monitor the server appropriate. It was quite annoying at times, sometimes it would work and others it wouldnt. I gave up after it was quite random but it was definately good.
