Issues with plumewind? Help required and peoples experiences too

[MentaL]

Hi,

Ok now, i been using plumewind for a bit now and i must say i think i know the ins and outs pretty damn well, now, server first launched on a celeron 2.4ghz with 512ram, no lag at all, after a week after 2 days the mobs would lag and 2 step would happen, on 100mbit and the ping didnt drop at all.. but cpu usage was high.. so i got a new one...



Atm now my new server is super spec for a mir server, its a 3GHZ P4 With HT and 512mbit of ram, now after two days still the server will seem to halt, but the cpu usage doesnt go over 20 and i still have half of the ram left, and the pc does not lag at all.. (two steps happens also but the ping doesnt drop...)


So im wondering has anyone experienced this and maybe its to do with ledu configuration? Advice is perfecto.


PS --

NOTE that cpu usage doesnt go over 20, and ram is half free.. so its not a PC problem (and win update is disabled, and no its not a location error, 100mbit and ping average for europeans is 40 so..)

i am getting same problems, sorry but i really dont know how to fix.

This must be a server side problem

DevilSoul had the plumewind server running for over 500 hours at one point with no issues

tell me then what m2server.exe u use?

 

[MiloFoxburr]

the latest one always

 

[MentaL]

Maybe its your configuration,after checking i noticed that the mongen is repeat checking and spawning which is intense, paste your setup milo :P cos this is deff server side problemo.

Perhaps it's a windows service running a scheduled task?

 

[MentaL]

I disabled all useless services the first moment i got them, and there are no scheduled tasks..

Project69 server also had this problem, seems to be fixed now though

Milo post ur Setup.txt pls...

 

[MentaL]

Noticed my cpu usage is 19% now full spawn..


2 Days later its 100%.. so its deff server side.

I know a couple of things that sucks ur computer up :P

1. Your MapInfo and all its Cords/Maps (Delete any u dont need)
2. Also in your map info, (Darkness) making every map day helps
3. Guards lag a server sometimes

its just the little things u dont 100% need that u gotta think about

this is happening and to me....is wierd!! I think it has something to do about respawns.....

Cant till I get access to my laptop again

 

[Babyhack]

You mean my laptop Milo :P

Just rebooted DS there
M2 had logged over 500 hours and the CPU was giving a fake read out of 100%
I logged ingame with CPU reading 100% and all was fine no lag no nothing

Its nothing to do with the !setup.txt
imo its the way the server files store there info in the memory as the DS memory buffer has been full more then once and this causes the fake CPU read

Just do what all servers should be doing and reboot the server

ITs not fake, its literally using 100% cpu, the machine is a 3ghz HT server, half the ram is free, all non used map info is removed, its tweaked to the max, im no fool when it comes to a pc, there is something wrong with the server software..

For over a day the cpu will be used at 19% , 2 days later its 100% and the game is unplayable...

Btw leaving server on for 500 hours without playing doesnt count

 

[Ripman]

after 2 days it seems that all respawns dissapaear and game laggs badly...

 

[MentaL]

Ok,

i tweaked the server setup yestuday with random parts for spawns, atm the server seems ok but its still slightly gone up the cpu..

Screenie.

Nothing wrong with the latest m2 Nemesis server runs fine and we are using a massive mongen/spawn to accomodate all the maps.

We did however have a similar issue with one of the other m2 releases but this latest fixed everything.

 

[MentaL]

i am using the latest m2...
