Server Configs for ET Test: Admins-Only

(xG -Abit-) #1

Hey guys, I know there’s probly one around here somewhere for ET. But I was wondering if we can create a Depository /sticky for server configs. I have a few but It would be nice if others could share their ideas with admins that are having issues such as mine, Master Servers are not returning heartbeats for some reason. I’ll fix it I always do. But, if we could keep a sticky above where ppl can post server configs. That would be nice. Thanks .

These settings are based on a Single DS1 ( which runs great! ) It handles 18 players with ease. I have a DS3 but, I don’t dedicate any more then balanced Dual-T1’s to my game servers. No need for it. Also, I’m a Windows Administrator. If you have the ability to Hyper-thread your processors. Don’t set the affinity for this. Just let it ride on the single cpu instructions. I noticed when I set the affinity at 4 for this application the server tends to crash more often then set to 0.
The server is full pretty much 18 out of 24 hours and when affinity is set to 0 running the config below on a single DS1? The average ping is 60+ -10ms, 0-14 percent flux, 0-7 percent PL ( Packet loss ) and has not crashed for over 48 hours. Server specs are below:

----------------------------------------------
Very conservative;
Windows ver 5.1a ( XP Pro with service pack 1 )
Dual Xeon 2.0gig
1024mb RD Samsung RAM
DS1 or T1 with 1433 dedicated upload
Intel 10/100 ethernet
Some reg. Tweaks from SpeedGuide.net

Anyone knows how to reduce the 60 seconds between two rounds on a server? (what var).

Because 60s showing the score screen is really long and often empties the server :slight_smile:

([rD]MrBlond) #6

set g_warmup “##”

is the command. If you have a rotation, you can specify the warmup for each round if you want. On our server we just have set g_warmup “15” in the server.cfg

(pack) #7

g_Warmup is the time after scorescreen. There is also a 60s wait during the scorescreen.

(xG -Abit-) #8

I’ve studied the cvarlist commands, 331 is what I have found that can be used for the server side setup. And I haven’t found a setting that changes the end of game ready warmup timer. Or whatever it’s called. I’m pretty patient. 60 seconds after an intence 30 min battle or even less is pretty nice. I just get a drink, goto the bath room and get ready for the next match. But, if I find something. I’ll post it here.
I have a hunch that it has something to do with a match_readyPercent command. The reason for my hunch is, everyone has to click ready for the timer to just stop. So, play with the ready percentage or disable ready options and see if that helps.
Try setting the match_readyPercent to something like 1. Only one percent will be needed to get past the warmup timer.
??? Report back here and let us know.
Laterz.

(ND80) #9

I’ve changed the match ready percent to 1 and the time between rounds is still the same. Doesnt seem that long to me. I agree that after a 30 minute round, short break is nice.

Also, I’m experimenting with limited lives on one of my servers (have 3 running). Currently using 25 for allies, 20 for axis. Anyone else start using limited lives yet? If so, what number of lives have you found to be the best? Thanks.

(xG -Abit-) #10

Well I hope that the Splash guys don’t mind? But, I’m takin a further look into the way this game is built. Wils - love your class selection config :slight_smile:
I love goty4et’s :smiley:
:bump: Sonders - you da man or woman. No pun intended.
heh,
Anyways, I’m guessing that floodprotect doesn’t work?
Whats the g_maxvoicechatlimit command? Or is there one? Just curious because my server did crash a little bit ago and I noticed in the log that there was a user spammin for awhile. And he was the last thing on the log prior to the crash. I wish I would have kept a copy of the log but I restarted the server before grabbing it. :disgust:

:frowning: the cvarlist commands aren’t too informative but it’s helping. Actually, it’s very informative… But I don’t think it was what I was looking for.

I’ll keep ya posted bud. Soon, very soon. :clap:
Locki & Wils just let me know when I’m getting too close for comfort ok. I’ll PM you if I have any questions. Is that ok or no?

// Special thanks to DG =) However I use a .bat file for executing games

I have trouble exec the game with .bat I have made. I have created server/pub/pbadmin/autoecex files.ETtest.bat File. Them I placed them in ettest folder? I am not sure if this is right folder. I used the info from this post I can not get it to work. Any guidance would be helpful.

(DG) #13

when you specify “+exec file.cfg”; et.exe always looks for the file in “ettest” folder, so file.cfg should be placed in there. You can place the .bat anywhere you like if you include the full path to et.exe; but if you only put “et.exe” the batch file must be in same folder as et.exe - which is not ettest :slight_smile:

if you want to make it more difficult for yourself, you can e.g. put the script files in ettest/scripts/ folder in which case you instead use
+exec scripts/file.cfg (i.e. set the path to it from “ettest”).

(Marauder[DSA]) #14

Thanks man i just did not have the path i put into the same folder as et.exe and up it came thanks

(Marauder[DSA]) #15

My only problem left is that the game shuts down when i end my remote pc anywhere session. Will not stay running even when i log of as a user

(xG -Abit-) #16

Send me a PM and I’ll help you out with that. Let me know what operating system you’re using. If you’re using WinXP or 2K I suggest you get rid of Symantecs - PCA. It’s icky. And if you’re not compelled to use mstsc or ( remote desktop being another name for it). I have a program that is free for download and utilizes a firewall which is pretty good IMO. Send me a PM and we’ll get ya squared away. Laterz.

(Marauder[DSA]) #17

Thank guy’s for your help.
i have made it a service and it stays up and running now. I am going to check out other remote software out there . pc anywhere is icky.

What you are talking about is called the intermission, the time at the end of a round. The warmup has nothing to do with this. We need a cvar to adjust the intermission time.

(DG) #19

anyone know what the prefix “g_lms_” is for? Only assumption I can think of is Last Man Standing mode but cant think why it needs these some of these special settings (if my guess for them is right):

g_lms_currentMatch
cvar set during game??

g_lms_teamforcebalance
same as forceteambance, but only applies in LMS?

g_lms_roundlimit “3”
max rounds before all players get their life back?

g_lms_matchlimit “2”
?

g_lms_lockTeams “0”
same as match_latejoin, but only in LMS gametype?

g_lms_followTeamOnly “1”
0 allows players to be normal spectator rather than limbo-type spec?

(xG -Abit-) #20

Last Man Standing

Cvars used to setup a One Life or Max Lives Match.
I believe it’s not working properly.
Well, at least it doesn’t work the way I’m familiar with setting up a One Life To Live server.
I haven’t spent too much time on creating a config specific to One Life or LMS. I’m sure once a realease with more Text ( Instructions ) are provided these questions will be answered.
