SRCDS fps problem

[BigBossBW]

Hello I run a server on a windows operating system and I have been for about a year now. I have always run this server at 500 fps. However in the past month no matter what I set fps_max to the fps will not change it is always a constant 200fps. I have tried changing fps_max in the command line and the cfg file neither have had any effect. I do not know what has caused it to do this I have not made any major changes. If anyone has any idea as to a way to fix this please any help is appreciated. Also let me know if you need more info to help troubleshoot my problem.
Thanks

Look up using Tickrates and use a higher tickrate on the server. Worked for me.

I have tried different tickrates to see how it would preform already I mess around with that quite a bit however changing the rates has never changed the fps the server runs at.

[nicatronTg]

Are you running any commands to limit the fps? I'm running over 600 with


sv_maxupdaterate 66
sv_maxrate 15000
fps_max 4000


With a tickrate of 66.

If you're using a Windows OS.. for Windows server 2003 (or XP) make sure you have the MMTimer running, or generally running Windows Media Player in the background will achieve the same thing. If you're using Windows Server 2008 (or Vista), make sure HPET is enabled in the BIOS.

To get about 1000 fps on your server you have to download srcdsfpsboost.exe and put fps_max 0, like that:

@echo off
cls
echo Protecting srcds from crashes...
:srcdsfpsboost
echo If you want to close srcds and this script, close the srcds window and type Y depending on your language followed by Enter.
start C:\srcds\srcdsfpsboost.exe
title Hoodies srcds
:srcds
echo (%time%) srcds started.
start /high /wait C:\srcds\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike +map de_dust2 +maxplayers 16 +fps_max 0 -secure -pingboost 3 -tickrate 100 -port 27015
echo (%time%) WARNING: srcds closed or crashed, restarting.
goto srcds

in a .bat file

You can try a proper site: http://www.fileplanet.com/174303/170000/fileinfo/Srcdsfpsboost.exe-for-PHL-Server-Guide

also to note.. the more servers you run or start running your FPS will begin to drop.
