on my windows box I have 24 slots, though I only use it to test some plugins with a few bots (no problem with cpu there)

the linux box with 16 slots doesn't seem to have a problem either

how to turn it on auto? i have to put it on but i'm not always on my server

[Devilion]

look in the tDMmaps.cfg and put the desired state as detailed in the help file right behind the name of the map.

Very Nice you made my server great!

everytime i switch maps i get a bad load any idea why?

[Devilion]

In custom maps, objectives like planting the bomb seem not be removed

All of my servers (Quad Opteron) are getting mad CPU spikes still, Mr. Euphoria! Any news on when this will possibly be patched up?

Well, after I kept crashing (and spiking) like hell, I finally got tired of it all and did a complete reinstall of Amx Mod X 1.5... so far it hasn't crashed, but it IS doing some insane cpu usage...

The server has a 3.2 ghz P4 on it, and *on average* when it's on the aim_mp5 map, it pulls about 35% cpu.. most spike I have seen is 49% w/18 people on. I'm not increasing the slots above that... lol.. I can't afford to have my other hosted games go to shit from these cpu spikes :S.

I did notice the cpu usage increased quite dramatically per the size of the map. If, for example, it's on aim_ak-colt with 18 people, it rarely goes over 20% cpu (even spiking) - but maps like de_rats variants and aim_mp5 (or even cs_assault) cpu spikage goes up to nearly 50%... odd thing is how on maps like de_dust or de_dust2 it hovers between 20%~30% when they are larger than cs_assault..

I just thought of this.. and I will test it out later... maybe instead of having random or usenormalspawns, I will see about creating my own spawn config.. maybe decreasing the number of possible spawn points = less cpu usage?

Ok, a tip to people with high cpu usage & crashes on map changes -

In my experience so far, any and all maps with hostages crash on loading, so remove any cs_ maps w/hostages in them from your map rotation.

Setting tdm_usenormalspawns to 1 reduces cpu usage by quite a bit... going to test this out later tonight, but also probably making your own CSDM config for maps *should* (depending on how many spawn points you set) help keep cpu usage lower (if you use CSDM spawning).


Just thought I'd share that with you guys, hope it helps some of ya!

with my install most players showed up as spectataers,you almost always saw you already have one when you spawned,it crashed on map change everytime,good plugin plaese get the bugs worked out,successful plugins are set it and forget it
