ok, we sorta solved the problem from last time, but i run 4 servers on my machine, everything is fine, except, when i hit refresh in the steam browser in my favotires, the servers not respond, then i wait a couple seconds, then they respond again, and when im in game, it dosent diconnect me, or lagg, is this a steam issue, or...

Steam server browser isn't very good, it is a very temperamental beast. Just like the server browser likes to say my LAN server has a ping of 35.:rolleyes:

[dualcore1289]

yea, but other servers are fine, but mine. mines the only one that not respond every once in awhile, and its not during a map change. then they just respond again, its weird,

[dualcore1289]

anyone????

[mr_Burger]

No you're wrong mine has a simmlar problem, give me your ip and i'll join.

[dualcore1289]

71.172.254.27:27015 thats just one of em. but it like not responds every now and then. and it only does it when i have more than 3 servers running, and i cant run them all in console mode, or they all crash/not respond.

Maybe it's a computer issue? 4 servers can take up a lot of CPU power. Also, do you have your servers on a client computer? That might also be the problem.

[dualcore1289]

noooo, its on a 3.4ghz dual xeon machine. and wheni check, when like 2 servers r full, cpu usage is only at like 8% or less.

Oh man, that's one nice machine ;)

Hmmm.. Is is 100% up to date? If I'm not mistaken, Microsoft just released a new service pack for Server Edition 2003 (I'm assuming that's your OS) a few weeks ago.

[dualcore1289]

no, its windows xp pro. but yea everythings up to date. i must have asked on every forum and no one seems to know the issue.

[mr_Burger]

You're right it's not responding, have you got you ports opened?

[dualcore1289]

it responds, u just have to press refresh like 5 times then it responds, its weird.
