Cant connet.
21. July 2006 - 18:31
So i was up all night configuring the new sub.swe server at my box at home.
Everything seems to run fine and all but ppl cant connect. I've open a few ports and even tried DMZ but no go there. I can play at my own server thru my LAN with no problem at all but when ppl try to connect via internet they get "awaiting gamestate" and that goes on forever and ever...
The server reports to the e+spider as it should and the pb is updated etc.
The configs i use is:
http://smorgar.mine.nu/q3/tdm.cfg
http://smorgar.mine.nu/q3/plus.cfg
Any ideas on what it could be? Have been working on this for like 8h now and im starting to get really pissed off. I got A LOT of experience with computers and networking so there is no problem with port forwarding etc.
WTF could be wrong?!
Oh and i used this "guide" to set it up; http://adler.excessiveplus.net/cfgs/readme.html
Edit: Got the server running at smorgar.mine.nu with port 27960-27962 both TCP and UDP ofc. I know that thats not enough ports but atleast one player should be able to connect dont you think?
The *.bat i use hade the following:
start quake3.exe +set fs_game excessiveplus +set dedicated 2 +exec tdm.cfg +set net_port 27960.

Try defining a ban and voteconf.
Offtopic: what does TCP do? Should You open UPD and TCP for a server?

Okey it seems to be running OK now. But when i (and others) play we all get the same laggy sensation. Its like a little twitch here and there. Any idéa of what i could try to make this go away?
Got almost no cpuload and about 100mb free mem...

a few days ago we in germany have a problem.
the game was so slow by connecting.
" awaiting ...." we must wait more than 50 sec. and we can play.
this is maybe a errors by masterserver in germany, this happend to me a few times i think arround 3x ,
btw now your problem is cleared ?

Yes it seems so... Maybe the server has been working all the time without me knowing :]
Anyhow, the laggy/twitchy thingy is really bugging me. Im running the server as a 1v1 rail like viking use to have cus then the twitches seems to go away.
Edit:
I get this message from time to time in the serverconsol:
Hitch warning: 20474084 msec frame time. My best guess would be that thats the problem causing the twitches?

Are you playing on the same computer? How much ram do you have, how much processes do you have running, and whats your cpu speed. Also, whats your bandwidth and up/down

Nope the server is running on a stand alone server.
CPU: P2 400Mhz
MEM: 320Mb sdram
Bandwidth: 8Mbit down, 1Mbit up
Processes: 30 including the server
Got like 17% cpuload and 100mb+ free ram. I just noticed that the server was configured to use 75mb so i raised it to 100. Maybe its cus it needs to swap.
Btw i know the hardware aint much but it should atleast hande 2 players...

Try to cut down on how much things you have running

Tbh i cant see why that is nessesary? Got LOADS of CPU and RAM left over.
Seems that there is something wicked with the network or something. I get the same twitches with my 100Mbit LAN. When they come i can see some quick packetloss/lag at the graph.

Your CPU is a pentium 2 400MHz . Quake 3 doesn't even run well on a Pentium 3 500MHz. The server is probably too hard on the old cpu and memory.

I dont know about the TCP, but i had to be sure :]
Today me and Psy tried the server and then suddenly it started working. I dident touch anything.

I don't have to be careful, I've got a gun.
