Here is a Short Story, Major props and a big thank you whoever can help me out. Thank you so much!!!
Hello, for my SRCDS dedicated server I am running a 3.4 ghz pentium 4 HT, 1 WD RAPTOR HD, 2 GIG'S DUAL CHANNEL CORSAIR RAM, A GIGABYTE SLI MOBO, AND A NVIDIA 7800 GT OC.
Now for the Operating System, I have standard windows Xp (home) and the only programs are the SRCDS, and firefox and basic stuff, so the desktop is clean of files. I am running a rr cable and the port of the server is on the standard 27015. I am running only 1 32 CSS player server on this machine, and I am confident this machine is powerful enough for this. IDK???
Anyway, cut to the chase, I installed SRCDS, attached a shortcut to it, and installed the Mani Admin w/ some quake sounds (that finally work.)
The server says it's 33 tick, idk how to adjust it? But it doesn't really lag, and I tried with 14 people playing, because i put the processor on realtime for the application. Is a higher tick better?
So anyway we started to get ranked (after 25 kills on default mani settings) and the rank and statsme worked and all, but when I restarted my computer (server is on) and we logged back into the game, the stats were gone???
My main question is how do save those stats, and how do I create backup files and backup logs on the server. I'm just using the standard SRCDS server launcher, so i'm very unframilar with how this works. And how do i do server restarts correctly without exiting the application and re-loading SRCDS?
Basically i want to have back up files and to be able to transfer these files to have them work if say I get a new computer but I still want to retain everything (stats for the server)
And my final question is I loaded a few sounds.mp3 to mani and a few songs, however, when someone trys to join the server (including myself) it takes no lie about 3-8 minutes just to load into the server cause it's downloading the mp3's. How do I make it faster? Nobody's gonna play my server after sitting more than a minute at the loading screen. Thank you so much for anyone who replies and helps me out.
