Network Settings / General for high traffic Servers

Post by erie1555 »

What are good settings for Source Engine when running with a high number of players?



Network settings such as:
v_stats 0
sv_region 0
fps_max 0

sv_parallel_packentities 0
sv_parallel_sendsnapshot 0
sv_usermessage_maxsize 5000
net_queued_packet_thread 1
net_splitpacket_maxrate 50000

sv_minupdaterate 10
sv_max_queries_sec 3
sv_max_queries_sec_global 100000

etc...

Personally I would let our system set a high min rate automatically. On the file manger tab there should be an option for this. Also set maxrate to 0.


I would also check out this guide. It is very in depth but extremely informative and interesting.
