I've been running a hl2dm dedicated server for a long time now and i'd like someone from valve or anyone who might know what these server console errors are that keep popping up are.


1- CGameServer::BroadcastSound: Recipient Filter for sound (reliable: no, init: no) with bogus client index (4) in list of 6 clients


2- Changing collision rules within a callback is likely to cause crashes!

3- Precache of sprites/redglow1 ambigious (no extension specified)

These errors are not from anything im doing but is just the reaction from maps being run on a server. What are these errors and are they just meaningless messages that keep coming up? Why aren't they being fixed by valve?

I'd also like to mention that none of these messages are causing any real problem that i can see, except for the sound one that does make my sound go out from time to time.
 
What map are you running that has those errors? or is it any map?
 
It's any map. You would be surprised what messages flood the server console if you have never ran a server before. It seems like careless work on valves part.
 
You guys call this the official hl2 forum... no one ever comes here and answers anything since I've been here. :rolleyes:
 
No one said this is an official site, its a fan site, run by fans, for fans, and any support given is done so for free by the member(s) concerned, for the sake of helping others.

Now **** off and play with the steam support section if you want to act like an arrogant shit
 
Oh i get it , there is no one here to answer any real questions that go on with hl2 but plenty of ass holes like yourself going around the board to make stupid comments.

Play with steam support? What a joke that is. Steam support is a load of crap and is only there so steam can say they have a support page, nothing ever gets fixed there.

Don't get pissed at me because this is a mickey mouse hl2 site and cannot provide any real information.
 
sorry that i just got new puppies recently and am busy with them?? 0_o


i'm fairly sure they happen in every server - Valve is too busy with episode 2 to fix them (or any other bugs, like being able to fly/make any weapon on the map stop spawning :/)

No one is here to answer your questions you self important bastard. They are here to discuss news and events that are related to half life. The fact that the board owners were nice enough to create a support section, and that there are members who are kind enough to read support posts in case they can help does not mean that this is official support, and you should be grateful if you do get support from someone, not rude because you don't.

You know what? Your right. Steam support pages are fairly useless unless you have an error thats listed on thier pages. However, thats your tough shit. You will notice if you look around the support section that polite people get what help we can offer, and rude people like yourself get no help. Because you have ****ed off the people who might have helped you, you are stuck with the only support that you are actually entitled to, steam support.

Oh, and I'm not pissed at you because this is a "mickey mouse" site that can't provide real information. It can provide lots of useful info to polite people, just not everything. I'm pissed off that you called it one because no one knew how to fix your problem, despite it not being thier job to.
I would point out, that very little research on my part has found that these are known errors, that they don't have any real effect on the game, other than making your log bigger, and that because of this, they will not get a priority fix, if at all, because there are more important things for valve to do.

So, 3 bits of free advise
1/. Do not be rude to people who you want to help you, especially if they would only be helping you out of the goodness of thier hearts
2/. If you are, do not be suprised when you get flamed rather than helped
3/. Google mother ****er (1st or second result in each list, all on the same page ffs)
 
1/. Do not be rude to people who you want to help you, especially if they would only be helping you out of the goodness of thier hearts

and you tried to help where? telling him to **** off and calling him an arrogant shit straight from the bottom of your heart lol


-----help---

Sky: why worry about random code? I get a lot of these red errors in my client but i don't give two shits about it, as long as everything runs fine.

the 3rd one might be where the sprites hang up in-game
 
You'll notice that my first post was after he started being a cock because we hadn't fallen over ourselves to help him, and as i said, people who are rude, deserve no help. If he had have left it at his first post, I would have posted what I put at the bottom of my last post, which in case you didn't notice, actually showed him what he needed to know.
 
Everytime I ran a server, or just played a game it would say:
"blah blah blah (Support for this will go away soon)"
However, I have never seen support for it.

Off topic:
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
 
That's what i said already.

Actually you said that you couldn't see any problems that were being caused, I was confirming that there wern't any and could be safly ignored.
