I have an NS dedicated server up. It's been running pretty much crash free. (there are some exceptions like hackers and exploiters that are beyond my control) Since my IP is dynamic, I use a DNS service. Server IP is: killerz.dns2go.com:27016

-HLDS 4.1.1.1 (If I ever take the time, I'll go back to 4.1.1.0 and ServerDoc will restart server automatically if server crashes) Server is up almost every day, but once in a while it crashes and I don't realize it for about a day. |

d31iRi0u5, I really wanted to check out your server but every time I check on it, it's always down. What gives? |

heh... someone (me) was away for 4 days, and server crashed, ServerDoc didn't reset the server because the error message was preventing hlds.exe from closing (yah i have a win32 server), even after I added the -console in the serverdoc run line. |
I AM NOT WORTHY, O GREAT AND POWERFUL ONE!
*bows before Sandman* thx again
hey I added my plugins to my server list above. lotsa plugins
(I finally decided to add winHL-Booster. Good News: Lotsa more people join. Bad News: I can't play on my own server now without lagging the crap outta everyone I don't know why it happens, I have a DUAL P4... grrr)

Hey, if you can give me a link to forums or anything that discusses issues with those plugins, I'd be glad to read them. As for turret limit plugin, I like it because i HATE HATE HATE turret farmers... but you're right. I haven't tried ns_caged, but I DO KNOW the first time you step in the comm chair on ANY map and build a TF, you won't be able to place turrets until you get out and hop back in. ...and Ping Booster is GREAT for servers, I'd hate to see it go In the past week, the server only crashed twice; once while I was in there trying to add bots. So, I haven't seen too many problems. But, thanks for any links in advance.
Ping boosters have been a thorn in the side of just about every bot out there, including rcbot. You can check Foxbot forums for all the issues that was found using ping boosters at http://dynamic3.gamespy.com/~foxbot/forum/news.php.
I agree with you about terrut farmers, I dislike it as well but it makes more sence to ban these tactics from your server by kicking and banning those commanders. Nurfing features farther with plugins that were already nurfed by the mod maker just makes things worse imo. Now as far as equipment store, umbra spawn and phase select, these plugins I have tried on my server, as well as a few others, and found them to be the cause of many relentless crashes.
Why 2.0? Not 3.0?
this topic started on Oct 22 2003
lol guess It's my fault, I pinned the topic..
Well I don't know about the others but my NS 2.01 server is still there and packed damn near 24/7.
What is ping booster, and also has anyone heard of interboost, what is it, what does it do, is it a virus, etc.
thnx.
