Hey guys, I’ve been reading everything I can find to try and figure out why my server keeps disconnecting everyone on it. I have updated everything twice and installed everything from scratch. But still at seemingly random intervals everyone on the server crashes (disconnects). Any ideas?

ZM 1.1.5
Meta Mod 1.2.3
Mani-Admin V1.1.0zi
Dedicated Srcds stand alone
Windows Server 2003

Sounds like your server is crashing? CPU usage?

You aren't trying to run 100tickrate with more than 24 ppl are you?

Stops working?

I tweaked a bunch of settings - the crash is good. its a 100 tick 14 player. Some times the ping spikes :/


I was more so wondering why sometimes after a map change the mod stops working? A zombie wont spawn anymore. Zombie_setup = 1 even on a restart map / mp_restartgame 1 changelevel I still cant get the zombie mod to start. If I reboot the server it works great again.[/quote]

thats vac, or mani, your forceing a player to have offical content, which it looks like ur server is mistanking a sound for a unoffical sound, thus "hacking", e.g if somone changes all the wall textures to glass textures it will dissoncect them, to stop them from "hacking", ur server is doing the same with the sounds

icepick, I dont think thats it at all. It is possible the problem is with the zombie ambient sound, try turning that off and see what happens.
