Ok well, this doesnt have anything to do with ktpro.

BUT for a very very long time there have been spikes on the barrysworld duel servers.
very noticable and frequent at night non-existant during the day.

I'll bring QW into uni on a cd and have a looksie.

Had no net access of my own since moving out of me mam's gaff in october :(

I've spoken with the development team and they suggest using -nopriority on your mvdsv commandline. This should hopefully correct problems when running multiple instances on the same server.

Thanks for getting ktpro put up at least btw :)

The servers are fucked.
Everytime someone dies it says
"Info String Length Exceeded"
There is also insane amounts of pl and generally laggyness
From BW qizmo (archroy.barrysworld.com) I got 40pl and 200ms
Even on the best 0845 my ping was 50-70 with 10pl

I've got serious doubts about msdsv.exe running multiple servers on duel cpu's. Tomorrow i'll go back to qwsv.exe for a day or so, and can you please let me know if things are different. All the servers are well within cpu tolerance (and i mean *well*) so it's not the hardware.

if you want to start mvdsv on winNT allways use -nopriority options, no matter how many servers you want to use.
using high priority for servers makes sens on win9x series only.

it shouldn't behaviour any different than oryginal qwsv if started with -nopriority.

Well, right now :every so often it seems to turn slow motion
ie. I had time to escape from dm4 RA ages after someone fired a rocket

You also cannot dl demos.
'Failed to Open'

We're using -nopriority. There is without doubt some sort of problem with qwdsv.exe on our dual cpu windows systems. With sys_sleep back to 0 the cpu use of each msdsv.exe instance (and the qwsv.exe instances) is leaping randomly every moment between 1-15% cpu (even when nobody is on the box). qwsv.exe sits at 0% when nobody is on.

Shall i switch back to qwsv.exe over the weekend and you let me know if the lag/timing problems you are seeing are gone?

Re demo downloading, it's configured in the way Oldman sent me. If you want to get in touch with me again oldman we can work together to find the problem with this, i can send you the full config/structure used.

well, ok, so i'll have to take a deep look into windows version of the server. I'll post some info if i figure out something interesting

cosmos: demo downloading works fine for me. My guess is you dont have things correctly configured your end, i.e. no quake\qw\demos directory.

It's possible that some of the problems (info string length exceeded etc) might be due to some problem with config i guess. I'll try and knock together a quick package which could be run as a test e.g. on maxwell which never lags.

oldman

Guest
the problem is the configs i sent hadn't been correctly imported into the game manager thing that barrys use so it was still overwriting with old kteams settings, should be sorted monday....
 
O

oldman

Guest
definetely nothing wrong with the cfgs i sent cos there the same ones that are running on the connectfree/minx servers as well as nearly every australian qw server :p

its clear from the special generated cfgs that natrat sent me that the servers are currently running on....... that the cfgs i sent before havn't been imported correctly hence why its cunted...

Ok we figured something out with the help of rxr:

The problem with "info string length exceeded" being spammed to clients is because there are too many serverinfos being sent to clients. Barrysworld uses a lot of extra long serverinfos like "contact/files/webpage" etc, and so when the scores serverinfo gets updated (after every frag) all clients get flooded.

The best solution would be to shorten/remove some of the additional serverinfos used at BW. this kind of info can be put in motd instead using:
localinfo k_motd
localinfo k_motd2
etc
 
O

oldman

Guest
yus that was quite obvious heh, the problem being that the way natrat edited/updated the servers he left in a load of the old kteams server and localinfo settings so the servers are filled with fk loads, instead of replacing the configs completely, when they have been correctly updated they should work fine :p

thats how the duel should be as per the configs i sent natrat, but its not :p

and as i said connectfree runs that exact cfg perfectly fine with no localinfo errors, having worked with natrat last friday i found it hadn't been imported correctly, when it has been it will work stop merning :p

I think some part of that has got into the cfg for the 4on4 servers, since you cant set maxclients above 4 now.
