over_kill Wrote:Got ya, so after I do that, restart the server than the addons should be toast? And maybe after I remake the .vdf file it will function properly.. Thanks realchamp, you the man! I will take a look at it when I get home from work today.

-O.K.

Yeah, you can simply just rename them from something.vdf to something.vdf.RENAME.

[auxiliarychipmunk]

I am having the same problem, fresh install no mods. please help

[pengy]

What is your startup command? Also post your server.cfg

[Mooga]

Ya, post your server.cfg

Also:
Are you running on a PHYSICAL or VIRTUAL host?
Are all your drivers up to date (mobo)?

Also Also:
Update using -verify_all
Temporarily remove all mods
Give up your startup line

Also Also Also:
Grab a nice glass of water, you deserve it!

but the thing that fixed it was

Code:

host_framerate 0

setting thsi to one sorted my issue, by the way this is running on a virtual server, running Ubuntu 9.04 32bit (the host to the server is Windows 7). Virtual server has 1gb RAM and 30Gb Storage which is local to the host PC not on the network or on a usb drive(as both of these setup's cause issues.

Well i hope this helps others )

Hey guys, thanks for helping us. Realchamp, I don't have a .vdf file in /cstrike/addons. I believe this is because I am using metamod for Mani's and not running it as a standalone?? Or should I create one? The CreateVDF executable is there, but I don't think I ever used it. Is this right?

In the mean time, I figured I would give up my startup line and my "server.cfg" file as well to see if there is anything that might be going wrong with them.

Again, I am running Ubuntu on a box that was running a Windows server fine (just slowly, that's why I switched) about 4 months ago..

Here is my approximate box info:
####################################

- 2.0 GHz AMD
- Approx 1.5 GB RAM
- Plenty of HDD space
- GeForce FX 5500 LE (256MB on-board)

Thanks for all the help guys!

Oh yeah, and if anyone would like to play on a server with "legal" speed hacks or just screw around with being able to empty out a para's clip in less than 4 seconds my servers IP is 67.247.77.47:27015

It's supposed to be 60?

[over_kill]

Ahh i totally missed that in the previous post!! Mine is set to 60 and I believe the default is 10 (6x normal speed sounds about right). I will try 0 and see if it slows down, and then maybe move it to 10. Sorry I didn't see that in the previous post, thanks for bringing it back up Behaartes, I will give it a shot!

Thanks guys!

[BehaartesEtwas]

host_framerate 0 is the only correct setting. everything else there is always wrong!

[realchamp]

I use 60.

[BehaartesEtwas]

that doesn't make it correct or useful. if your actual fps are 60, you won't have any difference. if not, you will have problems. try host_framerate 0. fps might seem more unstable, but stability is all fake if you set host_framerate to 60!

I don't see any difference when I change it
