Yea, but many of the times people were using non-player models, there was no death animation and when they were killed, so was the server. Bye bye - now where can we play? This morning there were only 100 operation HL2dm servers, the rest had been brought down by the exploit and its...

I have another hacker who crashes my server 6 times in the last two weeks. He only joins for about 10 seconds then sends my my SCRDS.exe cpu to 97% then jets out of the server. The Name is "Kid Speeding" his IP address is on the Asia Pacific Network according to Arin.net. since my server...

By any chance is this girl's name " Alyx"? ;)

If it is the same CLI.exe error that I got. you need to install .NET FRamework 1.1 from Windowsupdate.microsoft.com. I did that and it cleared up the error. I found the fix on another forum.

In Unreal Tournament DM , there is a default time about 4 seconds,I think where you are immune to fire. If you shoot a weapon, you lose the immunity. In the original HL1 DM, it could be set by a variable( cant remember which). For years, it was a DM ettiquite thing not to kill the freshly...

I'm hoping that it is a device like the tripmine in HL1DM. I miss it dearly. I used to set up some serious booby traps with it, particularly on doors and stairs. The trick was to hide the body of the mine behind an object and usually someone won't notice the beam when they are running and. B...

My server is has windows 2003 server on it, This was a 6-month trial edition I got in a book (I'm an MS Certifed Systems Engineer). I figured, used junk box, free server, why not? But I get some pretty unappreciative players. I have only essential services running on my PC, not even...

Wow, ran a HL2DM (Team) server as a community-resource thing with an old box. The PC is a beatup old 966 W/ 512MB RAM. I put a Trial Win 2003 server on it and installed Steam Dedicated Server on it. Downloaded maps, went thru some trial and error on setting stuff up. But it has been running...

Got my server running half-way decent. Can usually host 8-10 off my cable modem. Thanks for the Tutorial

Pro[ph]et, Many thanks for your tutorial although I confess that I have not tried to to implement all of your suggestions yet. Just running Tower on my beat up 933/512 server, Thunderdome2-B.

LOL, Since I have seen this post, I think I see a lot more DMing folks crouching.

My Guess, perhaps there is a CD-Key generator program like there are for other games to illegally use a CD-Key until discovered and shut off. Such a generator program may have come up with your number without the packaging on your HL2 box ever having been opened.

There was a similar problem with the original HL1DM early on, the head hit box was too small or deliberately made too small by the modeller. I think that this was fixed in late 2000 with a patch. Some of the models were outright cheats, like the 6 inch high "Wall" Model. He,he after much...

Just a humorous tidbit. In early 1999 while playing HL1DM in lan parties. We found that you could crash the server by detonating 24 tripmines at once. Basically it locked up the game. This was fixed by early 2000. I wonder how many exploding barrels with other objects around it as shrapnel...

DM_Badtaste - a remake of one of my old favs DM_Gasworks_B4- a remake of one of my old favs DM_Rebar Would like to see remakes of the old Morgoth and Scary1&2 HL1DM maps- the flow of those maps rocked!
