download problems

[oZ]

some people, a very small number have reported theyre download stops or slows down sometimes, this shouldnt be, i have alot of bandwidth on my server, they told me its at 1 gb upload. where is this problem at? is it a master server issue or game side?


i have found using 20,000 max client rate and max ticks per second 45 is excellent for my server, is this bad?

Server issue with channel flushing

Fix is either install 227 for server or increase tick rate like you already have.

You can also fix most of that on 224/225/226 servers by installing Nephthys v1.5a11 or greater. The mod now implements a specific packet control with or without upload throttling that can keep the transfer going relatively smoothly. That is a better option IMO then setting server tick rate to some value over 30 on an internet server.

i play on unreal gold with the 227f patch, you mean serverside 227 to decrease gpf's?

if i have allow older clients set to true for my 227 server, does this allow everyone to join no 227 needed and no white listing?

[oZ]

hopefully 1.4 will work for now, just a few days that is

[oZ]

i have to ask, would having a tickrate of 45 make gpf's more likely on a 225f server?

[[]KAOS[]Casey]

Tickrate will not increase gpfs

A 227 server will fix the download issue and be more stable. Just remember to remove the unrealintegrity serverpackage. and yes old clients true will allow everyone to join.

A 227 client will reduce the GPFs

ahh...not yet.
The download issue is fixed with coming release of 227g, it's not fixed yet in 227f.

[oZ]

yes, but if i remove unreal integrity from the server packs, 227 maps wont work on a 227 server? only 225?

lol it's been fixed for so long I forgot.. whoops.

Removing unreal integrity will not change map compatibility in any way.

[oZ]

ah thats good cuz i have a 24 player server with high traffic, 227g sounds nice

[oZ]

will 227g have the unreal gold style browser set up? nice and smooth like?

227 already has the UGold style menu...you just go to Advanced Options, Drivers, Console, and select UMenu Browser Console, restart game and walla

whats the best anti bot to use for older clients if i were to use a 227 server ?


i tryed running uprotect ,smartballs anti cheat for my oldunreal, it kicks 227 users

[oZ]

"227s anticheat system works only with 227 clients, same as the banning feature"


but it wont kick them though, right?

[Smirftsch]

it won't kick them. It just means that full anticheat can be only provided if both server and client are 227, which can be forced with AllowOldClients option.
But if you want to allow old client and you want to have an anticheat system which works for both 225 and 227 use PSynch:

But be aware it can't catch all kind of cheats, details are in this topic.

[oZ]

as long as i can run PSynch and 227 at the same time, im happy : )

[Smirftsch]

yes, it works with 227.

... Just remember to remove the unrealintegrity serverpackage.

... this should be unnecessary. The package should be downloadable for 224/5/6 clients and simply do nothing for them.

I have had dl problems on every server, slow downloading and stops too, but I found if you hit alt and enter when it stops, it keeps downloading but you have to keep hitting it so many times it is fucking annoying. |^o
