Isses with my server (A2C bad print error) + no 1000fps.

[IcEWoLF]

Everytime I start my server I get an automatic pop up saying this:
A2C_Print from 72.165.61.189:27011 Bad challenge
same with this IP: 68.142.72.250:27011
I do this through fire daemon that I installed, when you hit restart or start I keep getting a pop up with a message.

Here is my exec command:

-console -game "cstrike" -secure +map de_dust2 -autoupdate +log on +maxplayers 32 -port 27015 +ip 66.151.138.216 -tickrate 100 -nocrashdialog +exec server.cfg

Yup, we've been talking about the A2C / master server problem in another thread here as well. Fundamentally, it's on Valve's end, but you could try a -verify_all and removing/adding the problematic master server(s).

I'd recommend turning off the error dialogs in Windows (Control Panel->System->Advanced or similar).

John, I went in control panel>system>advanced system settings, but couldn't find the setting to turn off the error message. Little lost.

All i see is Performance, User Profile, Startup and recovery.

One more thing, I put the map files in the folder, but for some reason its not downloading the maps (47R Private).
what do I put in for download URL?
sv_downloadurl "cstrike/maps/" ?

You should see some checkboxes under "Startup and recovery" settings that you can uncheck if you are running Win2k3. If you're running Win2k8+, you may not see any -- in which case, I'm not sure how to get those dialogs to go away for you (I'm actually a bit surprised that it's popping them up, instead of putting them just in the console).

To get 1000fps, you must be running Win2k8, Win2k8 R2, or Linux. On Windows, start up the game server normally, and make sure that it has fps_max set to 0 (CS:S) or sys_ticrate 0 (CS 1.6). Also, you'll need to run the srcdsfpsboost.exe program that we provide.

Ok, I was able to run 1000fps now.
any solutions for my other concern about the maps?

Code: Select all

On sv_downloadurl, you'd have to set it up as we describe in this guide: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =18&t=3605

I see, I thought I would be able to use my server to have the files downloaded directly from the maps folder, but looks like I'd have to upload them to a web server.
I think I'd probably need to setup a web server or use our current one.

[Edge100x]

You shouldn't point a webserver at the CS server folder itself, for security reasons, but you could copy your files to a different directory and set up a server that points to that. With tools like WAMP, it's fairly simple to quickly set up a webserver.

[IcEWoLF]

Ah ok, will do.
