rates

[kikostaki]

now that valve set tickrate to default 66 what is the rates i must add for a source dedicated server on linux whith upload 1mb?.i want to support 16 people and has not very much chocke on the server

[BjornR1989]

One millibit isn't much, i suppose you meant Mb? It makes a difference.

Well, i found this page which came in very handy when i configured my server:

very funny...

b2t:
you can effectively reduce the ticrate by using e.g.
sv_maxcmdrate 33
sv_maxupdaterate 33

if your upload speed is not sufficient. I hope that's what you were asking for?

[kikostaki]

i have asked.I have 1 Mb upload and my server is 66 tcik what are the recomended rates for 16 players without much chock

[BehaartesEtwas]

what I meant: reduce the maximum cmd/update rates until the choke is gone.

[kikostaki]

what are the best rates that can i add to my server.i don't care to much for the chocke beacuse i have a war server.

[BehaartesEtwas]

choke is always bad. try:

sv_mincmdrate 33
sv_minupdaterate 33
sv_maxcmdrate 33
sv_maxupdaterate 33

[kikostaki]

but these are for a 33tickrate server i have a 66tickrate server and i don't want to lower my tick

[loopyman]

sv_mincmdrate 66
sv_minupdaterate 66
sv_maxcmdrate 66
sv_maxupdaterate 66

[kikostaki]

i did but other player are lagging like hell.they can't here the other players

[loopyman]

How many players are active? I don't believe you're going to be able to push as much as you think through a 1Mb connection.

[kikostaki]

when there are 10 payers online .2-3 players are lagging very much

[loopyman]

Its quite possible you can't push that much down that connection.

Try the variable:
sv_maxrate 20000

This will limit a users max rate and might decrease the lag for some users.

you cannot have tick 66 running with 16 players on that upload speed! either lower the effective tick rate or house your server in some data-center.

no way around it.

if i have 10 players beacuse i want to create a war server.i don't care for the chocke my conection can handle it.
