Hi guys, i am trying to open my own map it has many entitys , how can i open that map on my server, it's a big map.

PHP Code:

---- Host_Changelevel ----
*** Map Load: jb_csn4s: Map Group mg_bomb_seConVarRef r_staticlight_streams_indirect_only doesn't point to an existing ConVar

is there any fix for this crash ? how can i increase the number of total edicts ?

Is this from a dump file or server console logs?

Help me understand, you're server is crashing because you have a large map with lots of entities? I don't think that would cause a server crash unless you're running a map the size of or larger than the void OR you have a toaster. What map is it (jb_csn4s)? Link please, I'd like to look at this map myself.

it is dump from server console.
map size is about 150mb, total entity number is about 4000.
we don't share the map before we finish it and then we are going to license it, so nobody except my servers can't use this map, because of that i can't send map to anybody at this step.

edit : And also server is crashing on mapstart, sm_map jb_csn4s then server crash immediately

[Halt]

Rip, are you mapping with the proper tools, to prevent rendering lag/crashes. With portal flows and other similar tools? Attempt to turn off some entity vis groups when you compile and see if you can run it then. If it runs then you now the vis groups that are not on are the issue.

[dangerlord63]

it isn't about with entitys. it is about with total entity number, i already turned off some entitys when the entity number less than 1000 map works fine, but when it is bigger it crash the server.

[Halt]

From my understanding there is an entity limit that the source engine allows, probably for memory allocation. Although I think its much greater than 1,000. Perhaps the entities you are using are heavy in CPU usage? I.e. having 1000 game_text entities is not equal to 1000 logic timers firing 10 outputs each running all at once or 1000 ragdolls.


Edit: Yea read here

There can be up to 4096 entities.

yes i have 2000 game_text entity, i guess this cause the crash, can't i increase this with any metamod plugin ? or sourcemod plugin ?

[Halt]

Negative the source engine itself prevents how much data entities can manage. I do not THINK this can be coded around.

Since its the the entity limit causing the crash perhaps if you optimize EVERY inch of your map the overall data passed from sever to client can be lowered. If you have 2000 game_text entities alone can any of them be recycled? Do any of them have the SAME exact text/functionality? If so just fire them again.
