|
|
Howto play on my server:
- 1) Grab Half-Life at my Download Page
- 2) Start Half-Life and make your Configuration
- 3)(i) If you have my "half-life pack" just start the game, click on multiplayer->internet games. After waiting some time, you should see a list of at least 3 servers. If you don't see them, try clicking update.
- 3)(ii) If you are using another version you need to download the woncom.lst file. Just copy it in you /half-life/valve directory and proceed with 3.)(i).
- 3)(iii) To join the server manually start half-life, go to the console and type:
Code: | connect phalanx.game-server.cc:<port> |
or Code: | connect 88.198.134.210:<port> |
where port is:
27015 for my Counter-Strike 6.1 server
27016 for my Firearms server
27017 for my Deathmatch server
27018 for my Counter-Strike 5.2 server
Warning for Counter-Strike: Your Mod directory must be named "cstrk61"/"cstrk52" !
A few handy command options when starting half-life:
-numericping //Show ping as number, not as "color"
-console //Give us access to console
-32bpp //Render in 32 bit colors, I'm not sure with what graphic cards this works
To activate them all make your half-life shortcut look like this:
Code: | "c:\<somewhere>\hl.exe" -numericping -console -32bpp -nointro |

The problem is exactly what the message says: The counter-strike folder on the server is named cstrk52 for CS Beta 5.2. So you need to rename your folder, too. In the same way the CS Beta 6.1 folder is named cstrk61, so you can have both installed at the same time.
But I'm afraid that not many people are playing 5.2, we only play 6.1 regularly 2-3 times a week. |

Of course, you may play as much as you want. We're always happy about players!
Which Half-Life Version do you have installed? My Server are running 1.0.1.6, as it is the last version with the old net code. |

I connected the server but there is a problem with the pings. ıt changes every second and avarage 250. It's probably from distance and internet conection speed. game cant be played with this pings, I m sorry. I will try with more faster connection. thank you for all |

Yeah, the problem is that the server has to run in LAN mode, since the original WON is disabled. That makes it unplayable with high ping. If your ping is ~100 it's ok.
But it's always about the correct settings:
rate should be like 60% of your connection speed.
fps_modem, fps_lan should be as low as possible, with a slow connection. The maximum you can set is 72, but that will only work well with a good Ping. |

And the server is running as seperate dedicated?
Check if the ports from client and server are different.
And maybe try to set the server to "high priority".
And the MHz might be important. |

I dont think its about pc's ability also connection system. 5 years ago we were playing on more worse pc than now we have. we were choosing random pc for the server also it was running game. can it be because of win xp? I m trying to guess what is the difference. and first difference is win xp and the second is more powerfull pc second is cannot be reason. maybe reason is win xp or game configrations. I know the people had a same problem on playing cs5.2 with passing win xp from 98. and they solved this problem but I dont know how? I will ask them if I find them:D
I will write server pc's error text (I cant write now) its only single line and 2-3 words. |
