Snarkpit Dedicated server

It currently has Gollum's GMDM2 mod..

64.81.84.181:27015

Enjoy ^^

creams himself

It doesn't work for me, saying that "LAN servers are restricted to local clients"...

grrr yea, the gmdm2 folder mod doesnt come with any configs, so i had to scratch it.. lemme fix real quick

hrm, i can connect fine through our other ip... its not lan restricted fer me! spirit of halflife.. ugh, gollum, ugh.

before you get to upset ask i think he set one up recently and may have a few pointers for you.

Me and my friends just finished playing, so much fun.

Ok!! its resolved.. all of our servers, were screwed due to the new nic that we put in the machine. The new nic (which was used for LAN, not incoming) was being used as priority...

Anyway.. sooo sorry for the problems, but it's all working now ; )

Wuh-ho!

/me tries to find suitable words to express such extreme coolness....

Great? Nah, too generic.
Awesome? Too "ninja-turtles"

....

Splendiferous!!

....shame I can't seem to connect just now though - will try again later; I suppose it could be a college-blocking-some-ports thing (?)

Well, now I can connect. And despite the fact that it's way over in the sunny US of A, I get a ping of 160ish :smile:

Right.....now about that worship I promised back in the other thread. Do you prefer sincere and humble devotion or blood sacrifices and melodrama?

Bewbies = teh king!

We'll have to get a load of Snarkpit peeps together sometime soon for a game. BTW, if anyone wants a guided tour of the map, it will be my pleasure :smile: There's a lot of Gollums on Steam, but I'm the only one called "Michael Hopley". Look me up.

ping just under 300, not bad for an american serv.

I say not bad, I meant not working. Played it for 10 mins & the servers buggerd up. its down atm.

KoRn and I just had a quick blast on the server; shortly after Crackerjack joined, it crashed. The server is no longer registering.

Any idea what might have happened? I dread to think it might be my old friend Ed_Alloc: no free edicts.

yep it was some kind of softcode error... spirit of halflife isnt exactly the most multiplayer friendly mod =/

I'll bring it back up whenever it crashes, but it cant stay like this... so in a few days, ill set it to hldm... it's a snarkpit maps only server, so if you want you map sported.. just reply with a dl link =P

Er, could I have some more details about the error please, if you have them? There are two issues with regard to stability:

• My map has lots of entities and so it might cause a server to crash (Spirit or not)
• This version of Spirit is supposed to be a fixed version, but it has not had much testing at all

It would be useful to know whether the error is map-related or mod-related. Given that, how about testing another map under the same mod?

Sorry about this mess, but it is uber-useful to me to have an opportunity to test (and potentially debug) my mod and map. I am delighted to have played successful games elsewhere but also commited to making this product stable for as broad a range of situations as I can :smile:

Thanks.

Put the playable competition maps on the server :smile:

dm_osiris should be finished pretty soon :smile: Just waiting on the weapon placement from ReNo, and after that, bar a few tweaks - it should be ready for playing. Is it too late to enter it into the competition? lol :wink:

lol, is it smaller than rampart hawkins m8?

Ummm....it's probably about the same size(ish). Not quite as twisty and turney though :smile: It's probably a tad smaller but not by much.

Whenever there is any kind of server problem like this, it is one of two kinds.. engine failure or client failure. Engine being the DLL - and client being the map, rendering process, model keyframe errors, etc.. if it were a problem with your map, the server would have just sprang right back up and reloaded your map. Instead, it gives a nasty STOP error and closes hlds. I found the server with that nasty stop error, so i can definly say it was a problem with the engine, not your map.

Okay thanks, that's useful information.

Subsequent games have not had any problem so...shrugs.

Is the server still running? I may have to check it out when I get home today.

ooo the competition maps..! i like that idea

starting tomorrow afternoon, the server will be HLDM and will have all of the competition maps in rotation. (assuming they are all hldm.. hehe)

:sad: Wish I could try out this map, sounds cool...
