Dedicated server

Post by mattb »

Let's say I get an unmanaged dedi I saw the tutorial how to reach 1000fps on a windows 2008 with srcdsboost running in the backround and HPET.

I just have a few questions

How can I make it so not all the servers run at 1000fps maybe 2 out of 6

and is HPET like task scheduler? it restarts servers?

As well how can I add 600fps to my server without adding +fps_max in the cmd line or fps_max in the server config.

You would have to limit their FPS with cvars. What type of servers are you running?

HPET is a type of platform timer, like PIT or ACPI PM, and does not restart servers, no.

With an Orangebox game, the most you will actually be able to get on Windows is 500fps right now, due to Valve's 50% FPS restriction. We talk more about this here: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... =44&t=5473.

The cvar to set on the command-line, or in a server.cfg, would be fps_max for Orangebox games. You'll want to set it to maybe 30% higher than the actual target FPS, since the game does some strange internal rounding/adjustments. If you set fps_max on the command line, supposedly it can't be changed later.
