THIS TUTORIAL HAS DEPRECIATED! IT WILL PROBABLY NOT WORK!
However, the Win_MaxFPS still works for Windows OS's as of 6/18/12
Many users have asked me this question and believe it is possible due to the fact there are many game servers out there that are indeed running 100 Tick Orangebox servers.
So I suppose you want to know how, and its fairly simple to do on both Linux and Windows.
This tutorial assumes that you already have your servers FPS boosted to above 100. In most cases Linux will run fine at the defaults, as for Windows you will need to install an FPS booster service. This service is included as an attachment as well. All 2000 and later Windows distributions will work fine.
First off I want to mention the reasons why the tickrate command was removed from Orangebox games ( CS:S and TF2 )
As I stated earlier the process is very simple... Very simple in fact that you will be surprised on how simple it really is.
Step 1:
Download attached Tickrate_Enabler.Zip
Step 2:
Upload the contents into your addons folder. If you do not have an addons folder. Create one. ( orangebox/cstrike/addons )
Step 3:
If you have removed your -tickrate startup command. You must re-add it for this to work!
Step 4:
Properly configure your server.cfg with the following commands:
These commands will FORCE users to use 100 tickrate. You can also set the mincmd and minupdate rates to 66 to allow users to pull 66 ticks as well.
Boy was that simple. Now enjoy your modded 100 tickrate server.
This is confirmed to work on Counter-Strike: Source and Team Fortress 2 It may or may not work on GarrysMod, Left 4 Dead, or Left 4 Dead 2.
Please note that this may or may not improve your gaming performance. Valve change the rates to improve game play consistency.
Edit: Thanks for fixing attachments!
Edit2: This is probably out of date.

Quote:Tickrate has a host of side effects on network code, weapon firing speeds, force impulses (like throwing weapons), and physics, and this will help us create a more consistent experience for Counter-Strike.With this in mind... Lets get modding.
