Re: Download/Upload Speed

The download and upload speeds you see while connected to a VPN would be limited by the connection speed you have from your ISP. If you're maxing out at 10Mbps when not connected to a VPN, this would also be the maximum speed you'd see through a VPN connection.

Re: Question about PHP

If I understand correctly, then you should just need to be returning a string as output from your script. Something like the following would work: <?php $Avatar = 'http://bmtwebsite.site.nfoservers.com/UserAvatar/noavatar.jpg'; if (isset($_GET['steamid'])) { $SteamAPI = 'http://api.steampowered.com/...

Re: Question about PHP

Can you elaborate on this a bit further? What is it that you're wanting the script to return? Are you just wanting the script to print out the URL for the avatar?

Re: Auto-exec

For custom settings, you will want to use the gamemodes_xxxxxx_server.cfg files, which override their respective gamemodes_xxxxxx.cfg files. You don't want to use the non _server.cfg files, as the originals are overwritten every time a game update comes out. As an example, if you're running the clas...

Re: Server.cfg

If a few people are reporting issues, they could have low client defaults, so raising your minimums will force them to use increased rates. You may try setting sv_mincmdrate and sv_minupdaterate to 33. It's also not uncommon to force everyone to use the same rates, so setting these to 66 which lock ...

Re: HTML MOTD not changing?

HTML MOTDs were disabled by default a while back, due to a large number of servers running ADs in the MOTD. Try setting cl_disablehtmlmotd 0 in your client console in CS:S, to see if this gets your HTML MOTD working as intended.

Re: How to setup FastDL for csgo.

It's likely that this store plugin will require you to setup a configuration for the files that forces these files to get added to the download table. You will want to review the configuration for the plugin to get fast download working. It seems your sv_downloadurl and web server are setup correctly.

Re: How to setup FastDL for csgo.

If no other files are downloading from the server, this would mean that the files are not added to the download table for the game server. Most plugins will add files included with the plugin to the download table, so that they're requested for fast download. What plugin are these custom files being...

Re: How to setup FastDL for csgo.

These .bz2 errors are normal. Clients always request a .bz2 version of every file first, as fast download supports bz2 compression. If no bz2 version is found, the client will fall back to requesting the standard, uncompressed file. Can you post some other files that are failing to download?

Re: How to setup FastDL for csgo.

You want to use the same directory structure on your web server as you have on your game server. If you have a model file called "tree.vmt" located in /csgo/models/cooltrees/tree.vmt on the game server, then that file would need to be in /<root of your fast download folder>/models/cooltree...

Re: How to setup FastDL for csgo.

Troubleshooting this is going to require looking over some logs to find out what's occurring. First, when you attempt to join the server, the console in CS:GO should list each download, what errors are showing up there? Second, for Apache, there should be an access log file available you can look ov...

How to allow remote connections to a MySQL/MariaDB server

First, you'll need to ensure that the database server is configured to listen to remote connections. To do this, we'll need to adjust the my.cnf file. This file is normally located at /etc/my.cnf or /etc/mysql/my.cnf To edit this file in a text editor such as nano, you'd use the command: nano /etc/m...
