<div class="IPBDescription">Has to be something great out there...</div> I'm currently using HLSW, but the bugs seem to be flying in lately. Is there anything better out there?

    Funny, but basically same features and HLSW.

    I like seeing the Chat messages, administering rcon, ban control.

    I'm going to take a look at Jarcon (sp) to see if it's ok.

    Thanks for the reply!


    EDIT--- after looking at the Jarcon page, I believe it's for Unix. I use windows! <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The only issues I have with HLSW atm are:

    1) It doesn't understand Steamids
    2) Its reserved slot detection is easily confused by sv_visiblemaxplayers

    HLSW, but ensure it's version 1.0.0. I do everything from it, from running my Win32 HLDS 1.1.2.0, to joining a game.

It has a console section which give you full access.

    YEah, it doesn't see steamID's yet, I assume they are working to fix it.

    HLSW development has been pretty slow (and buggy) recently. Don't hold your breath.

    Same here - the only problem I've had w/ it was sometimes it says a server is dead when it isn't, but that's only for a few seconds.

    That's actually a problem with the new Anti-DoS code built into 4.1.1.1, 3.1.1.1, and 1.1.2.0...

    To fix, add the following to your server.cfg:


    <!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->
    max_queries_sec "-1"

    max_queries_window "-1"
    <!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

    I love ASE as well guys, but he's not looking for a replacement server browser. He's looking for a new server monitoring and management tool.

    AS HLSW v1.0.0 wouldn't allow me to changelevel on my STEAM server (no clue why, but that's irrelevent) I updated to 1.0.0.8-beta, which corrected the problem. The changelog says most of what's different is associated with messenger services. I have NOT noticed any bugs with the beta yet.

    the new beta is a little buggy. I forgot what was buggy about it because I went back to v1.0. The thing I remembered was that the **** tried to give me a virus. POS god damn script kiddies and their god damn annoying viruses, they are like the buzzing of flies for me to squash.

    All Seeing Eye is definately off my track. HLSW is so buggy it irritates, but only thing that will do the trick me thinks. I loved the wonid database.

    And yes they are VERY slow to update. That's why I'm looking. I found Kontrol, but I cant (dont think) talk to the players on the server via rcon.

    Thanks all. Appreciate the help.

    Let's Go HLSW, get with it already! <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
