Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this. I played alot on DM, and when I found out you went CTF, I had to come along too.
But, other than the fact it's usually empty when I'm on now, What's going on with the server (now lol) ?
I tried getting on a few hours ago, and when I did, the server was wacky. It was at Stone Fort, the "timeleft" was literally 0:00, it reported "This match is a draw" but it never changed. Because of that, I could run around and "shoot" weapons, but they would not affect a single thing. I waited for a little bit to try and tell someone from pDs, or someone who could get it fixed, but no one got on.
I checked again a few minutes ago, and the same thing happened at Fort. Sadistical came on, and the same thing happened to him. I could capture the opposing teams flag, but shooting anything with a gravity gun, or other gun had no effect (nothing moved, or exploded). Most guns will burst fire but rockets and grenades dont shoot off. Also, when I shot Sadistical, there was blood everywhere, but no damage, and he claimed to be blasting me with the sniper right in the head and nothing happened.
Forgive me for being the n00b in the forums, but I wanted to tell someone, if you didn't already know it.
Anyway, hope this gets fixed, cause this was my main reason for playing HL2DM for a while, and the ONLY reason I'm playing HL2CTF (and striving to get my rank up...cause I just HAD to get a new steam account...). I gave up hope of other CTF servers after it turned into 2 on 1 on me, and one guy camped my spawn and killed me, while the other guy captured >_>  [20:39] {pDs} t3h Cam3l: hey craig, how do i set up a private server?

Weird. I'm going to fresh install the server tomorrow and see if that fixes it. I'll need you guys to check this out when I do. King Gojinn, please accept my apology for the server not acting properly. I'm glad you made the switch with us, and I hope you don't give up on us just yet. We'll sort this out!
Thanks for yoru patience. These road blocks were bound to happen.

How am I gonna give up on theONLY server I've relied on constantly for 16 on 16 CTF madness?! lmao
There were days I had trouble getting into the server it was so packed. Ah....good times. Don't worry. This n00b is going nowhere. I'll check the server mid-afternoon when I wake up. Thanks for the warm welcome, it is appreciated. I bet a good refresh wouldn't be a bad thing lol.
Yeah, roadblocks are bound to happen, especially since, it's a new server, new game, well...new everything. No need to apologize. It's not like you had control lol. I mean, you had control...kinda...but you couldn't have forseen this happening ; ) [20:39] {pDs} t3h Cam3l: hey craig, how do i set up a private server?

The Tomb is officially running great. =)
Tested every weapon and it's alternate fire. Also, used the gravity gun to launch objects a lot too. Everything seems to be in order. Hell, I even waited for the map to change, and once it did...it still worked! =O
lol So, I'm gonna take a break...considering I watched the timer go down alot, and captured the flag by myself, and took up every weapon to use lol.
Why can't we pick up weapons for extra ammo though? I find that very annoying some days when I don't know where the ammo is X_X lol [20:39] {pDs} t3h Cam3l: hey craig, how do i set up a private server?

i agree. i wish you could pick up guns again to get more ammo. i forgot about this issue when i was porting the maps. next release i will have to add more ammo for the guns so running out of bullets isn't an issue.

Hey WhutDuFuk? I have had the same problems with the two Nemesis CTF 1.7 servers that I have setup recently.
Every few map changes the server becomes unstable and objects or weapons don't work or act correctly and I sometimes get the sudden death problem - lol even though I don't have sudden death setup.
The only temp fix for this I found so far is to restart the server.
I suggest that you setup an rcon command like this if you don't already have it so that your admins can restart the server ingame when stuff gets a little screwed up
add this to your rconlist.txt file
"Restart the Server!!" _restart
Or you can use the same command over hlsw.
Also if your server is windows based you might have to create a srcds.bat file so that your server auto restarts properly as the above command shuts down the server and a bat file will auto restart the server for you - only takes 2 to 3 seconds for your server to startup again.
If you don't have this done for your dedicated server send me a pm on the Nemesis forum and I will talk you through how to setup a .bat file
http://nemesis.clanservers.com/forum/index.php
Also if you figure out the problem can you let me know?
Thanks
Carentan Killer

Thanks man! We've actually got it set up to where the server reboots each night and compiles the psychostats via .bat file. We're also running the servers as services under firedaemon. The physics error used to happen in normal dm when maps utilized the faulty props_physics_multiplayer entities... but I'm not sure what's causing the rest of the chaos.
I'll take you up on that rcon thing though, never knew about that feature ;)
Thanks for the help! I'll keep you posted!

Your welcome Whut,
Any help to each other would be great as I have setup and run a lot of servers in my time about 30+ and I setup and run all the Nemesis Servers (9 servers total) but I am new to hl2ctf servers and I would like to find out all I can about the new server commands so if I run into any problems I will know what to do to fix the situation.
And thanks for the update I will try this out but if only we could make the overtime set to 15 seconds or so then it would be perfect as waiting around for 60 seconds or more can seem like a lifetime ingame and players will leave.
Also my xfire username is carentankiller if you would like to add me to your friends list.
Regards,
CK
