The Warsow Server thread (tastyspleen.net:44400)

[AlexMax]

Hi, I was browsing Warsow servers in HLSW, and I decided to sort them by version, and it turns out that a lot of people are still running very outdated versions of warsow, your server included.



Please update your warsow server version from 0.1 to 0.21.

[console]

OK, thank you, I am working on it...

[console]

I tried the "update", and then the "full install" but I keep getting problems like:
====== Warsow Initialized ======
Hostname: tastyspleen.com
IP: 67.19.248.74
Opening IP socket: localhost:28000
********************
ERROR: Game is version 8, not 16
********************


...I am trying again with the full install, without copying over any of our old data files.

[console]

OK...!

By doing a fresh full install, then copying back in all the .pk3 files from my previous version install, it seems to be running now.

Hopefully you can connect to the server and verify that at least the basic elements are there.

Regarding:

As for server settings, Battleeye optional would be nice (because I don't think BE works with linux yet), and a default map rotation of all the wdm(X) maps would be nice, with voting turned on and all gametypes and maps selectable.

...if you would like to help me with config files for this, I would be happy to make the changes.


Regards,

quadz

there's a TS warsow server?
 

what's the IP?

[console]

tastyspleen.net:28000

[Whirlingdervish]

cool.. (just realized I could have gotten it from your previous post..)
 

[AlexMax]

Just so you know, people appear to be connecting to your server sucessfully.

[AlexMax]

Just so you know, the name of your server is "warsow server".  If you want it something slightly more awesome, change sv_hostname in your config file.  Also, using various combinations of the "^" symbol and numbers can make colored text, (^1 makes all text after it red, ^2 is green, ^3 is yellow, ^4 is blue, ^5 is cyan, ^6 is blue, ^7 is white, ^8 is orange, ^9 is grey). 

Also, you seem to still be running wtest3.  That's a 0.1 map that shouldn't be run anymore.  In the future, when you upgrade, make sure that the new version's pakfiles get precidence over the old versions, because there might be adjustments made to levels. (like the changes to wdm1 between 0.072 and 0.1).

But as you can see, your server is being used.  Thanks again.

[console]

Thanks for the info.  I've removed the wtest3 map (hopefully), and changed the hostname.

Let me know if further changes would be desirable.

Thank you so so so so so much for this server, it's been an awesome addition to the budding NA scene.

However, there is something very odd about one thing in particular, that thing being serverside demo recording.  Warsow records every single match that is played on your server, and players can download them by typing in demolist in the cnsole to see the matches themselves, then demoget n to get one.

However, I'm noticing a very odd thing.  The demos only go up to march 31st, and nothing after that seems to have a record.  Please investigate what's going on, because I'm not 100% sure about what's happening.  If it's an issue of disk space, perhaps run a cron job that deletes demos older than 14 days?

[console]

Hi,

Strange, when I look at the basewsw/demos/server/ directory, I see demos there continuing from march through april.

...so I'm not sure what would be causing the problem.  I'll try restarting the warsow server just in case that helps...

[AlexMax]

that didn't really help :/.  I suppose I'll file a bug report with the devs in hopes that it can get fixed.

Anyway, so this isn't totally useless, here's some more stuff:

First feedback.  I had a bunch of people on two nights ago or so, should be easy to tell when we were on due to the server activity.  Anyway, when there were like 9 or 10 people on, the server started lagging everyone to heck and back, and when we migrated over to another server with, the lag was not present.  Problem on your end that you knew about, or should I look for stuff you can fiddle around with?

Second, the custom maps.  Two particular TDM maps have everged as being popular maps to TDM on.

partdm1_v2_beta3.pk3

-and-

lltdm1v350

Could you please add those two maps?

Thanks a million mate.  =)
