EDIT: i think i know why you may not be able to open it. make sure you download ollydbg v2.01 alpha 3. alpha 4 is bugged and takes forever to load, and ollydbg 1.10 can't load DLLS on windows vista/7 x64. link: http://ollydbg.de/odbg201c.zip

Awesome man thanks so much. Now its working.

ok, now on the maxupdaterate, You say you will see the 66 above it. Above what really? You say double click on the push offset for 66? I dont see this push offset for 66.

press ctrl+a and you should see it

youll see something like PUSH OFFSET 1234567 and to the right youll see ASCII 66

Hi there, im having trouble with the sv_maxupdaterate as well, even though i try to set it to 100 it still only update at 66, and if i change the sv_minupdaterate it goes all the way down to 30, any advice please?

Okey, since nobody answers i attach pics and a server.cfg and see if it helps!



and whats ingame:



and the server.cfg:

Code:

hostname "************"

sv_cheats 0


sv_maxrate 50000
sv_minrate 12000

sv_region 255

sv_max and min updaterate is in the startline at the moment as im in testing phase.

Hope anyone can help, thanks.

I noticed you talked about the client was forced to 66 tickrate, but this cant be true since many servers is running at 100 tickrate still.

Or could anyone try to throw their 100 tick server.dll and engine.dll to me so i could see if it works?

EDIT: image links fixed.

try putting in server.cfg sv_mincmdrate 100, sv_maxcmdrate 100


if that doesn't do it, open up ollydbg and set the sv_mincmdrate to 100 manually in the engine.dll. if that doesnt do it, then ill do another quick tutorial on how to change the setinfo limits but this should be enough to get the client to send more than 66 updates a sec


and btw, don't set it to 101 because not only is it pointless, it causes more rounding errors (1/100 = 0.01 vs 1/101 = 0.009900990099009900990099009900990099..)

"File 'C:\HLServer\orangebox\bin\server.dll' is a DLL. Windows cant directly execute DLLs. Try to load anyways?" I hit yes and I get the: "Unable to Start file C:|HLServer\orangebox\bin\server.dll" Message

Now my srcds is in file C:\HLServer\orangebox\srcds.exe\

What am I doing wrong? Am I not doing what you told me to do?

found out your problem. rightclick on ollydbg and press Run as Administrator
