Hey guys,

I've been searhing forums and all for the past hours and asking around but i still cannot find out how to set the tickrate to 100 on a windows Xp box.

System:
P4 D 805 DualCore @ 3.6ghz
2gig DDR800
74Gig Raptor

T1 line 10k up/down
----------------------------

I have scrd open and the server up and running.
How do i make it 100 tick?

Thanks,

Mike

The Steampowered forums use to have great content about this, but they recently started hurassing and deleting content that showed how to do it (the mods did this to Whisper's post about high tickrates in Source because it started too many threads asking about it). I was going to point you over there, but I can't now: Oh well, there goes valve destroying stuff again.

Basically:

1) Run windows media player on the console
2) add -tickrate 100 +fps_max 600 on the command line
3) make sure your rates are high enough to allow the added updates
4) set maxupdaterate 120

That's what we do, and they run great.

alright so im sorta catching on here.


1) Run windows media player on the console ---Are you talking about the console with in Media player? or source? If on media player where to i locate it?

2) add -tickrate 100 +fps_max 600 on the command line --- I've read about fps_max 1000? should i put 1000 or 600?
3) make sure your rates are high enough to allow the added updates --- Im sure the updates have gone through just fine - and do you know where i can find information regarding other rates for the server?



Thanks again you've been a huge help
