Arma 3 STABLE Server 2.18 "profiling / performance binary" feedback

[spanishsurfer 58]

The new hotfix to the hotfix seems to be working well. Also, my frame rates seemed to be higher then normal during last nights match.

while not exactly PERF/PROF news, the bug causing mass/multiple players to crash was fixed, enjoy your weekend gameplays ;)

Is that the Battleye bug ?

Is it ok to turn battleye back on now on stable ?

Yes Bl1P, BE seems safe.

starting to test 1.28 profiling v1 with new traffic logging

37.187.132.224:2102

37.187.132.224:2802

so if someone can join , even idle it would greatly help on optimizing the game MP

[wiking_at 10]

it seems that the servers are down now.

is the 1.28 perf v1 client necessary to play on a 1.28 perf v1 server?

[Kemeros 1]

Performance was pretty good but then we we're 11 on them when i played.

Solid 50-60 FPS. No lag, didn't notice de-sync.

ye I was waiting for v2 which is up now

[nark0t1k 16]

Are you needed some player to your perf server?

Top Secret or what?

[lordprimate 159]

do we need a v2 client??

[Dwarden 1125]

nope, server is now compatible with stable (that's the aim of the profiling/performance branch, incompatible was unusual state of emergency)

[lordprimate 159]

so 1.28 server perf can be used with 1.26 stable client? Just to make sure i understood what yousaid

We use this on our BECTI server which is pretty populated and full of AI:

steamLanguage="";

language="English";

MinBandwidth=34952533;

MaxBandwidth=104857600;

MaxMsgSend=576;

MinErrorToSendNear=0.090000004;

MinErrorToSend=0.0089999996;

MaxCustomFileSize=0;

guaranteedupdates="false";

It's been working well but if anyone has feedback on what we can do better I'm all ears.

BTW Dwarden where should I post the profiling file?

Edited September 13, 2014 by SpanishSurfer

[wiking_at 10]

is there also a 1.28 v2 PERF Build? I just find the PROF one on the dropbox.

[Dwarden 1125]

no, PERF v2 is just w/o RPT antispam as it was preventing some of the logging ...

7zip that and post somewhere where I can download, or send me on Skype or to my email

Lol, you ignore me extremely hard...

I want only one official basic.cfg, then we finally know, which settings are right for a server.

You are making some "performance binary" things, but dont want saying anything to the value in the basic.cfg...

I want only one example for hardware x with maxplayer y. What is now your problem?

The settings in the basic.cfg are very important. You can have extremely strong Hardware, but when the settings are shit, you will have no chance to reduce the performance problems on your server.

I do not understand why nobody wants to know that too?

Shit basic.cfg settings = no performance binary can help the server fps...

Btw: Thx SpanishSurfer for your support.

You are not on the right thread...

[mariodu62 5]

Server crash with this new version

[jumbobreakfast 13]

You are not on the right thread...

He is on the right thread and I think he has a valid point about making sure that everyone has similar settings especially while testing. There should be a standard basic.cfg files for people to use depending on the mission type and number of players to prevent misleading reports...or am I missing something obvious?

[mariodu62 5]

There is so much parameters depending of your hardware...

So for testing, the best cfg file looks the standard one.

To compare new version to the old, you need to keep using the same cfg and just compare performances.

To adjust your cfg file, there is a lot of thread about the setup.

[Dwarden 1125]

Server crash with this new version

where is my .rpt, .mdmp, .bidmp with crashdumps , 7zipped ofcourse?

[Sturmgewehr 15]

where is my .rpt, .mdmp, .bidmp with crashdumps , 7zipped ofcourse?

Maybe the crash is caused by wrong basic.cfg values​​.

Give please a example from your own running server.

Sent you a PM with the download link to the files.
