Wich Hlds Works Best For Ns2.0 In Win32?

BaDMeAT · July 2003

im thinking to use HLDS 4.1.1.1, ive heard that it dosnt work any good from some ppl and that it works great from other, should i use 4.1.1.1 or stay with my old HLDS?

The only real choice IMHO is the latest one (which was released on Jul 30th) It fixes a HUGE exploit that any 12 year old can crash the server.

So far I been using it on Win2k with no problems (btw its 4.1.1.1d or whatever).

If you mean to disable the GUI server so it displays in the old black and white console

then add -console
to your startup line

You need to download the 3111 patch for NS to run it on 3111, <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/ns_i386-3.1.1.1.so.gz' target='_blank'>http://www.natural-selection.org/ns_i386-3.1.1.1.so.gz</a> . Though from what I've heard 3110 gives less CPU load.

Are any of your guys who are running 4111D using adminmod? That combination crashes my server as soon as a player joins. Here's the <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=8&t=40431' target='_blank'>thread</a>.

(Problem resolved. You have to have a really small MOTD.)

4111D plus AdminMod 2.50.56 (metamod 1.16.2) on a WinXP o/s will not work.

Yes it does kwik. That is what I run.

Details?

It's been some time since I tried the 3 fresh installs of it, but as I recall ServerDoc factored into it somehow. From what I've heard/seen the only benefit is the new GUI anyways, so I'll stick to the old one - it works great!

and the fact that any 9 year old can crash it...

New one works great as long as you run the -console option

Depot · August 2003

......totally irrelevant as it won't work on all setups (including mine).

4.1.1.1d uses WAY too much cpu (it's a bug valve is working on fixing), I had like 6 people on my server and the marines put up like 15 turrets at the most and the server was at like ~99% cpu usage and lagged everyone but when I downgraded to a lower version and it reduced it to like 60% cpu at most it gets now.

you running on a 386?

I run a 20 person on a 1.266ghz p3 and NEVER get above 25% utilization.

The only way we could crash it was making a serious turret farm (70 or so turrets).

Hope your running the pivx patch for your server.

May/May not work on Linux (just read the release notes myself).

Personally, I updated to 4.1.1.1d. Hated it until I found the -console switch. The only issues I have now is running multiple instances of HL server; they are all named "Console" instead of the full path like they use to.
I can live with that.
