Jaymod 2.0.6 + Omni-Bot 0.61 should run very smoothly for you, although you will lose some features included in Jaymod 2.1.7. To be honest, I still prefer Omni-Bot 0.532. They seem to stand around less (in my experience anyway). 0.66 bots often stand completely still like Lemons in the middle of the map. They'll run around, find the most open expanse possible, then stand there waiting to have their heads sniped off. Luckily my server now only needs bots during the quiet periods. I look forward to getting rif of them completely in the near future. BTW... the watchdog command will not do anything. This is because the server does not actually crash. It is still running, just in a crashed state. Hard to explain, but the watchdog command will NOT be executed.

The cvar and/or MD5 tool checks are probably in the config section of this site. Even Balance seem to be quite slow to get the latest hacks detected. That's where the PbBans configs come in :) I can't say for sure that it's in the PbBans configs, however, since the hack name was edited out of this post before I first saw it.

Nice to see you finally fixed it :) As a note, however, I find that Omni-Bot 0.66 usually crashes after the server has been running for 30+ hours.

It's a cvar from a cheat/hack. Whether he was using the hack at the time or not, it's not possible to tell. But, he has hacked in the past in order for that cvar to be in his config.

My recommendation to you would be to install either Jaymod ro ETPub, with Omni-Bots. If you are able to set up Omni-Bots, I see no reason why you should not be capable of installing a mod. You'll get a lot of new features, and I can also tell you that Omni-Bot 0.532 runs very smoothly in 2.55 :)

Yeah I managed to do it. Combinations which work: - ETPub 0.7.2 + Omni-Bot 0.532 - Jaymod 2.0.6 + Omni-Bot 0.61 - NoQuarter 1.1.1 + Omni-Bot 0.61 <------ Not tried this one, but I presume it will work fine. Minor NQ bugs only will cause problems. I like ETPub myself, but 0.7.2 does not offer spree sounds. So, I moved to another game server host (http://www.emsgaming.com/) and setup etadmin_mod. It works fantastic! 2.55, ETPub, Omni-Bots and spree sounds, all crash free. Hope this helps you.

I've got etadmin_mod up and running how I want, except for the !stats command. It's pointing to the correct .pl file. However, when a player uses the !stats command, this is displayed in the etadmin_mod log file: wrote ... No GUID. at addons/etpub_stats.pl line 26. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? Thanks, BlackWolf.

Cvars won't cause ignoring MD5 tool query kicks. I get a lot of players getting kicked from my servers for "Ignoring MD5 tool queries", but only when players have lagged out, so it's no major problem.

I ran my server in 2.6 for a month. However, it spent a lot of time with only 1-2 players on it. Back in 2.55, it's popular again! 1pm - 3am, my server hits 32 players regularly. Around 7am, it has about 2-3 players. If I ditch the bots, it stays empty. If I have bots, they 'kick-start' the server so to speak, and from 10am to 12 midday, teh population slowly picks up to be full for hours at a time again. I hope to be able to ditch the bots eventually, which should be, IDK, another 3 months perhaps? The server's become much more popular since I upgraded it to 32 slots only a couple of weeks ago. The problem occurs when the server slowly loses its players in the early hours of the morning (5am onwards). As soon as it's time for the bots to join. Boom, it crashes. However, if the increase in population keeps up at this rate, we should be good to go soon B)

Yeah I can get 0.8.1 running fine. The problem is the newest Omni-Bots (0.66). Omni-Bot 0.66 crashes frequently, whereas Omni-Bot 0.532 does not. In order to run the server without crashes, I have to run ETPub 0.7.2 to be able to use Omni-Bot 0.532. ETPub 0.8.1 runs great. Spree sounds, multikill sounds etc, but it only supports Omni-Bot 0.66, which cause frequent server crashes.

Yeah, 2.0.6 works in 2.55 with Omni-Bot 0.61. I have it on another server and it runs smoothly. However, I wish to keep this particular server running ETPub. Jaymod hitboxes are a little too big for my liking. Yeah, I'm picky like that :P Was looking for the latest ETPub nightly to support Omni-bot 0.61. It supported spree sounds at least, even if not multikill sounds. However, I lost my copy of that a while ago and I'm pretty sure no-one still has it. Shame. Thanks for your help, BlackWolf.

Maybe not...... So yeah....0.7.2 it is.

Yeah I've tested WhaleClient before, but I wasn't over impressed. Since the pak's outdated, the client side prediction isn't up to the level that the ETPub client is. The double jump is also extremely choppy. Since the crashes occur when the server goes from having no bots at all, to several at once, I've set minbots to '1'. Worth a shot I guess :D I set that up at 2 pm (GMT) yesterday, and the server hadn't crashed at the server restart this morning (10 AM GMT). It used to crash every 21 hours when a bot connected, which is weird. If I can just get it to last another 3 hours on top with this new method, I'll be happy. If not, well it's back to 0.7.2 and no spree sounds until I can get the server popular enough to not need bots to kick-start it after a quiet period.

Yeah it is. I used to run 0.7.2 and etadmin_mod, but the host stopped etadmin_mod from running: Omni-Bot 0.532 runs very smoothly in 2.55, and I've never had any problems with it. It appears to just be 0.66 causing problems. Ideal combination for me therefore, would be ETPub 0.7.2, Omni-Bot 0.532, and etadmin_mod. But that ain't gonna happen. So I'll either have to put up with frequent server crashes, or no spree sounds. Shame really, since I only need the bots to kick start the server after a quiet period. Within an hour after the daily restart the server's busy.

I've posted on the matter before, but I've now pinpointed the cause of the problem. If I run ETPub 0.7.2 with Omni-Bot 0.532, everything runs smoothly. If I run ETPub 0.8.1 with Omni-Bot 0.66, it crashes regularly. If I don't use bots with 0.8.1, it's fine. So, the problem's the bots. I'd love to be able to use ETPub 0.8.1 and get spree sounds going, plus the improved antilag. However, this is not possible due to the constant crashes. The ideal combination for me, would be ETPub 0.7.2, Omni-Bot 0.532 and etadmin_mod, but escaped turkey has prevented etadmin_mod from running since it causes duplicate proceses of etded.x86 Has anyone else attempted to run Omni-Bot 0.66 in Enemy Territory 2.55, and if so, have you experienced the same problem? Thanks, BlackWolf. == SERVER INFO == Server info: version = ET 2.55 linux-i386 Jun 24 2003 <------ Yeah, problems. Just after info if anyone else has had this before ETPub version = 0.8.1 Omni-bot version = 0.66

Submit a trouble ticket to even balance. If you were innocent, they will state that is a false postive. You can then appeal your ban (if you are on the PbBans MBI). If you were on a non-streaming server, EvenBalance may be able to inform you of what is causing the kick.

Works brilliantly, thanks for all your help :)

Thanks for your help. I've installed Q3MM, and I've downloaded the version spoofer plugin. Just a quick question; where does the versionh4x_qmm.so go? Thanks, BlackWolf. //EDIT Noticed it's location is specified in the qmm.ini file Going to test this later. Thanks :)

All mods work fine, apart from Banimod. Log data: I'm guessing the "server must be run in 1.41" bit is the issue. However, the server is running: version = Wolf 1.41b-MP linux-i386 May 8 2006 Any ideas? Thanks, BlackWolf //EDIT Banimod version = 1.1.99

If the server has antilag enabled, you shouldn't need to change this much. I run -3.7 timenudge on ETPub 0.7.2 servers, -1 on ETPub 0.8.1 servers, and 0 on ETPro. 150 ping + no antilag = -30 timenudge. Those are the best for me, but fiddling with it until you get the best feel/performance for you is the best way to go.

I'm going to upgrade the server to 2.6b. I'm also interested in putting the theory "It's harder to populate a server in 2.6" to the test. Thanks for you assistance, BlackWolf.

My server has been crashing recently which I believe is down to the omnibots (runs fine without them). According to the host, the server continues running, but in a crashed state, rendering it unplayable. The console.log file ends just as a bot joins the game. Note that this does not always happen, just a couple of times every 24 hours): ClientDisconnect: 5 ClientConnect: 5 Userinfo: \name\^0S^7!^0lent^7\rate\25000\snaps\20\ip\localhost\cl_guid\ OMNIBOT***********^0S^7!^0lent^7 ClientUserinfoChanged: 5 n\^0S^7!^0lent^7\t\3\c\r\m00000\s00000\dn\\dr\w\lw\ 0\sw\mu\ref\1 ^2Sample Default Bot Profile ^2Current Difficulty 2 ^2Difficulty FOV 70 ^2Difficulty ReactionTime 2 ^2Difficulty MemorySpan 2 ^2Difficulty AimPersistance 1 ^2Difficulty MaxTurnSpeed 720 ^2Difficulty AimStiffness 75 ^2Difficulty AimDamping 10 Userinfo: \name\^0S^7!^0lent^7\rate\25000\snaps\20\ip\localhost\cl_guid\ OMNIBOT***********^0S^7!^0lent^7 ClientUserinfoChanged: 5 n\^0S^7!^0lent^7\t\2\c\r\m00000\s00000\dn\\dr\w\lw\ 31\sw\mu\ref\1 Userinfo: \name\^0S^7!^0lent^7\rate\25000\snaps\20\ip\localhost\cl_guid\ OMNIBOT***********^0S^7!^0lent^7 ClientUserinfoChanged: 5 n\^0S^7!^0lent^7\t\2\c\r\m00000\s00000\dn\\dr\w\31\ lw\31\sw\mu\ref\1 broadcast: print "^0S^7!^0lent^7^7 entered the game\n" ClientBegin: 5 I am running 2.55, which I guess is the problem. I've got the server relatively popular in 2.55, and am reluctant to move to 2.6 as it would mean populating the server from scratch. However, I would be willing to upgrade the server if it would fix the problem. The only thing in the back of my mind, is if I go through the trouble of upgrading it to 2.6b, then finding the same thing happens there. Is this a known problem with running omni-bots in 2.55, or is the problem down to other reasons? Server info: ETPub 0.7.2 Omni-Bot 0.532 version = ET 2.55 linux-i386 Jun 24 2003 Note: the same happens, but more frequently, with ETPub 0.8.1 + Omni-bot 0.66 Omnibots logs also show nothing out of the ordinary. Thanks in advance, BlackWolf.

My server stopped streaming about a day ago. I checked the logs, and found many errors such as the following: [10.01.2007 12:40:41] PB UCON Packet ignored "pbbhub"@63.171.64.205:40193 [] What could possibly be causing this? I haven't chanhed any server side settings :blink: Thanks in advance for any help, BlackWolf.

I am attempting to help one of my server regulars to resolve this issue: http://screenshot.xfire.com/screenshot/lar...f00b3e1f9a6.jpg However, after trying all the above, the problems still exists. Any suggestions? Thanks, BlackWolf.
