I will be setting up the CS server this week assuming Qwest hooks everything up on time and sends me the new router...
I will also be installing psycho stats like Kanker has on the server. Hauser do you know much about the NT web server/IIS? We are running NT 4 on the server. The requirements are service pack 5 and perl installed. I might need help getting the server to post the stats to the web server. Psycho Stats
I will also be installing Admin Mod on the server so switching maps by vote and kicking players by vote is easier.
I can add statme if you guys want down the road.

I wouldn't install adminmod. But definetly install statsme. We should be able to RCON easily enough and be civil about it.
Adminmod everyone says has all kinds of security holes now. People have found ways to hack into it and fuck up peoples servers. Then again this is all just stuff i have read and heard.

Yes, I have heard about all the issues with Admin mod, but am willing to take the risk because I like it. Stat me is actually a plug in of metamod that Adminmod is built on. The new version of Adminmod addresses alot of the problems. I can always remove it later.

Did you post anything on Kanker??? We could be thier overflow server....be a good way to get some traffic. I'll go put something up and then you can post the IP when you are up and running.

That's a good idea. We will see how things run and then maybe do some advertising. I am crossing my fingers that the server can run with 16 players - I would be ok with 14.

I dont see NT4 stuff on it but I would think it should work just fine. 2000 and xp pro are on there. You are wanting it to auto ftp itself up to the site correct?

Nope, it will be complied and posted on the web server on the server (at home). The only connection to noncompliance.com will be a link to the stats off the home page.
I saw some NT 4 instructions on the psycho stats site and downloaded perl last night.

okay, let me know if you need help. I would be just reading the instructions the same as you. I have little knowledge about psycho stats itself but I am sure we can figure it out... You could always email Bruce. he has helped me with things in the past and is quite knowledgable.

I have quite a bit of info on IIS for Win2000, shoulnt be much different on NT4 at the higher builds (SP5 and such). I'll bring the literature over and help out in setting it up some night if you wish klaus.

US Internet is the ISP. And yes fuck Qwest!
I just called to check on the status of my order. Everything is going ok.... the line will be uncapped tomorrow just like they said. One little problem, they lost the order for my new router - so when the new speed is turned on tommorrow the old router will stop working and I will have nothing I asked them to overnight the router and they are checkin on it but said something about UPS.... Whatever, I see some free DSL service out of this..

Allthough i could just play from work. I have Qwest Buisiness DSL and thus Qwest as an ISP so i should get very good ping if playing from work.
Having frontier at home i route through chicago for everything so i may get up into the 70-100 range for ping Posts: 2331 | From: Rosemount | Registered: Mar 2001

Nice post on Kanker Chad. Very tasteful. I doubt Eric will get admin though...... j/k
Yeah any help would be appreciated. Thanks I might give it a try on Thursday night if the router shows up.
quote: The boys over at NonCompliance (you all may know us as [4x4]) are starting up their server again. Klaus is the Admin. They will now have capability for 14-18 players (some experimentation needs to be done to find a good, playable max capacity). They ran a server for over a year a while back and it was a great place to play. They will be installing psychostats and statsme, play and rules will be very similar to kanker.
By no means are we trying to lure away players from Kanker but everone knows how hard it can be to get onto kanker so it might be nice to have this as a backup or overflow server, it certanly will be nice for us 4x4 guys. All 4x4 guys and one tratior 4x4 who now plays for VvV (and will remain nameless, *cough*-Boon-*cough*cough*-docksaint j/k) will have admin capability and so the server should be very well monitored.
Klaus will post the IP soon. He is still in the stages of setting up the server but we just wanted to let all you guys know. _________________ [4x4]RockLobster [4x4]PatheticLoser

Server is on hold until Qwest does some testing to determine why our upload speed is stuck at 192kbs. It's possible that our line can't handle the high speed upload... Strange because the qwest person shows we have plenty of signal and our download speed is over 700kbs.

I am going to try and set up at least the server part of the CS server tonight after work. Chad will you be around to try connecting when I am ready?
I was thinking a pretty simple map rotation for now, something like Aztec, Dust2, Assault usp, Inferno, Train. Any suggestions?
Let’s not advertise the server until it has been up for a week or so as a public server. I want to see where the max players should be set at. The last thing we need is a bunch of Kanker players connecting and it being all laggy because I have it set too high.
I was thinking 14 players at first. Friendly fire off. 20 Minute map rotation. 60 percent vote kick and vote map. Map voting at the end of each round.
I will be emailing out txt files allowing admin functions. Chad please don't abuse admin. Posts: 5484 | From: St. Paul, Mn | Registered: Apr 2002

Pick a few maps that arn't on Kanker. And for GODS SAKE, LEAVE OUT Piranes (Its not even spelled correct, if it references what I think it does) That map ALWAYS lags on me, constantly.
What about Thunder??? (isn't that the one at the DAM????)
Did you ever play Roman??? That was a custom.
I liked Siege & Vegas
I know some people don't like it, but I thought Storm was a great map when you had a lot of people.

Yeah, I was thinking some variety too. The nice thing will be the ability to change the map using the on screen voting system. The only reason I picked the popular maps at first is to attract traffic.
Anyone like Havana? I think it's quick and the CT's have the advantage unlike assault. FYI - I like Piranes, but yes it is laggy.

I like the layout on Pyrenees. But that map for some reason totally lags out my computer. And I know its the map and not the connection cause it doesn't continue after the map changes. On that map whenever I'm grouped with other people, or pull the trigger, it laggs, so basically I get fucked every time.

I think you should focus on Noncompliance server as a fun alternative to Kanker and play more maps that Kanker does NOT have. Here's my vote:
THUNDER (Yes the one with the Damn Dam) VEGAS JEEPATHON (Ban the awp if you can, it's a fun ass map I think) BACKALLEY PRODIGY TORN STORM ROTTERDAM NUKE SURVIVOR
etc etc. If you're making map voting available, might as well have a lot of maps. NO SIEGE, MILITIA OR ASSAULT. I HATE those maps when you get the pussy ass stacking awpers. I get too frustrated and just want to leave.
Since they're very balance, and not too "awpy" (is that a word?) we could use ITALY and OFFICE.
I'll be on tonight, call me if you need some players. Bring it on suckas...

For god's sake dont put backalley on the rotation. That's like having VIP maps on the rotation. EVERYONE LEAVES.
Nuke is a very fun map that isnt played much in non league play.
Survivor is great dust 2 italy Torn
all great maps...

BACKALLEY RULES!!! That's oldschool counterstrike. The kind of games that were played when counterstrike was just a unknown twinkle in your eye hauser. Close quarters blast away stuff, it's great!

Come'on SIEGE aint bad. I think its tactically interesting (your supposed to camp basically) and I've never seen it weighted one way or the other consistently. Team stacking (and group AWP'ing)is always gonna make for a gay, one-sided game....
Same with Assault. But I've only played on custom Assault that I REALLY liked and I think it was called Assault_02 or Assault_2002

Will you post the IP when you get it up so I can add it without trying to UPDATE and find you. Preferably tonight if you get it going, and I'll try and connect.

Hmm, try a different computer once. I have been able to view it from home and here at work. Maybe its a security setting in your browser. It's just the same page as Kankers stats, except one version newer.
Anyone else having problems with the stats page?
