Hi there, server quality in the list is 15 (quality 84-100)

But in game, it's showing most of the game perf of 38-60 with a quality of 84-100

Happened since this update, want any logs or something?

http://ns2servers.devicenull.org/servers/1689121/1.42.16.59:27019


Tried to delete perfhist.bin, still no change.

One issue.

Host server, i join from a local client(another computer on lan), says there's no players on the server so it doesn't record stats, one person joins and seeds server, for a split second when they join perf goes down (first person only) and then it stays with that perf, even though it's not the true indication of the server( i suspect this is how it was working on mine )

    perfmon needs players to actually shows a score.

    quality shows the reliability of the scoring. If it just started scoring, who knows if its a peak in performance or not?

    At a quick glance at taw's performance lines I saw nothing odd.

    ATF was in the server and was watching perf at around 40-50 with nearing 100quality.

    The servers idle is always high, no other issues either, one thing to note, the quality and peak was always great, same with medium.

    I think i've figured out some of the issues, i have an amd 8350, overclocked to 4.6ghz with some other software modifications.

    2 people sitting in the server tickrate 15-20, 3 people 20-25, 4 people 30ticks (18 people 30ticks), so the problem is something else?

    I've tried a different OS, changed all thermal throttling in bios settings and the like but i am still getting this issue, it never happened in the other patch(but the tickrate thing did, just never perf issues)

    Do a search in this subforum. I remember someone else having this problem.
    Should not be anything IN ns2 causing it.

    I wouldn't have posted otherwise, and besides i've already inquired with 3 other server hosts + a few people.

    I meant this thread:

    It looks rather similar to your experiences.
    Going from you linking pictures with dropping tickrate.

    I would personally only worry about the current performance of your server. If you have had long periods of bad history in the past Id expect its average is lower.


    I wonder how the load is when the server is full under a heavy load. (marine GL/JPing in hive)
    Do you have perfmon lines to share?
