Post by: taliwhacker on August 04, 2006, 08:19:00 AM
my server just keeps muckin up, whenever it starts a round it says "error: ed_alloc: no free edicts" then shuts down and on the few times it has worked, players including myself on lan get kicked for some time discrepency stuff, can anyone help me?!?!?

in server.cfg there is a place where you can turn  time discrepency off.

if you turn it off then people will be able to speed-hack on the server, so keep an eye on them and cam/demo those that do, its fun to catch them in the act.

Then you've got problems with being anal about your folders and desktop.

Yep.

What about quicklaunch?

cobo: seta sv_enforcetime 0

Then it will save the setting to your config file.

taliwhacker: Do you by chance have a bunch of bots loaded up?  Or are you loading some poorly made custom map with a ton of entities in it?  Try deleting all the .tmp files in your paintball2/ace directory.

So what exactly does the enforce time do?

If you disable it, people can speedhack, looks funny as hell when they do it, so you cam/record them. Then you yell "h4x", and kick/ban them. oh so much fun, just remember to often have an OP with kick/ban ability on.
