unstable fps

[Prodigy_player]

Greetings all, I'm currently having issues trying to stabilize my FPS. I'm trying to run a match server but the spikes are sorta annoying me. My FPS jumps around 800-999 and I have no idea why.

My other question is, will pingbooster work on windows? how about -tickrate?

any help will be much appreciated.

Here's my setup
i7 860 quad core cpu
4gb dddr3 ram
windows 7 64bit
Connection 35Mbit/15Mbit
FPS Booster: srcdsfpsboost

Command Line:
C:\HLServer\hlds.exe -console -game cstrike +port 1337 +maxplayers 11 -autoupdate -secure +fps_max 1000 -tickrate 100

server.cfg:
sv_minrate 6000
sv_maxrate 25000
sv_maxupdaterate 100
sys_ticrate 10000
sv_region 1
sv_timeout 65

Wrong startparameters. try:
C:\HLServer\hlds.exe -console -game cstrike +ip yourip +port 1337 +sys_ticrate 2500 +maxplayers 12 +map de_dust2 +fps_max 0

I dunno if pb works on windows but i guess not since it changes the way how the engine makes systemcalls. With Hlds there is no "tickrate" the command is +sys_ticrate.

thanks for the info. Will it be possible to run linux on visualization mode and have hlds run on it instead?

Hmm im not sure, but i dont think that there will be good performance.. Go for a root Linux server

virtualization is not a good idea to run game servers. it's already difficult enough without it to reach very stable fps :-)
