The problem is we don't have the information to reverse it. Asherkin's accelerator was a great attempt/success, but if its no longer functioning (assuming due yo a change), we're going to need a core file to proceed.

(Core files are what your system creates by default when an application crashes. This breakpad/other silly business wasn't/isn't intended for developers without the actual source code. gdb is a great debugger, and was built to handle reading core files as they're pretty standard across unices. What isn't standard, and is a 3rd party thing is the break pad system and the .dmp file you currently have in your possession. It's unfortunate that Valve hasn't expanded on this at all, but that's the way it goes ).

Interesting. So all you're missing was an actual .dmp file? I can supply one. So how are people actually reading the .dmp files?

Does this plugin work for HL2DM? I am running on Linux and one of my four servers has started having this problem. I do not see HL2DM in any of the files. I also do not see a .vdf file to stick in MM folder. Can someone help a non-coder?

Unfortunately this does nothing for sequential buildups of edicts. Only if a ton are allocated/freed in a certain period will this *maybe* help you.

Did valve forgot to clean up edicts on round end there?

this issue is still down the server. map c6m1_riverbank gamemode survival and coop, play time 5-10 min, spawn props 200-300 (and i have reserve in 400 prop)

2 questions for yah

does this still work? as i am having the issues of Engine error: ED_Alloc: no free edicts

and does this work on windows servers?

Thanks =)

[Martijn79]

Tested it, it doesn't work. For me the no free edicts seems l4dtoolz related though. If I disable that everything works fine.

Am I the only one who doesn't understand how to install this plugin thingy? There is a lot of files. People speak bout .so and .vdf i got a lot of other files.
I found out where to put it but the thing is that 2 of the .so files are shortcuts not actual files.
