Lowpings.net specializes in providing a stable and reliable network for game servers while providing an inexpensive service that customers can easily afford.  They have one of the largest networks built for game server types such as the Call of Duty game series, Soldier of Fortune game servers, Garry's Mod servers, Team Fortress 2 Servers, and, of course, the Counter-Strike series. Garry's Mod has become an incredibly popular game for individuals wanting to bridge the gap between creating games and playing them.  Lowpings.net is also expanding its ventrilo server hosting by teaming up with popular ventrilo hosting sites such as DallasXtreme.com.



New Features at Counter-Strike.com

Counter-Strike.com has been offering Counter-Strike game servers for years and has constantly been improving the way game server companies operate.  They have recently released an update to their control panel to give customers the ability to update their fast map download servers on their web hosting accounts with a single click.  This is incredibly convenient for customers with Counter-Strike Source game servers or Counter-Strike 1.6 game servers who may not know how to use a web hosting account to make downloading maps and other files from their game server much faster than the default game allows.  To make it even more convenient for customers, the staff will set up everything for the customer whether the web hosting account is hosted with Counter-Strike.com or with someone else.  They are willing to help the customers receive the best gaming experience possible.


HL1 Engine Update (Yes, Another!)
Posted By Kik: on 25 Oct 2008
» » (0)

We have released an update to the Half-Life 1 engine, run the hldsupdatetool to get the update.

This update:
- enables the sv_visiblemaxplayers cvar again
- fixes the setmaster command so it can be used again
- lowers cpu usage
- MW2


Issues that are still being worked on
- FreeBSD startup issues (that pipes assert)
- Demo record in hltv

and the constant optimisations to further help CPU usage (yes, I am looking at you Linux!).

- Alfred


Another HL1 Engine Update
Posted By Kik: on 23 Oct 2008
» » (0)

We have released an update to the Half-Life 1 engine, run the hldsupdatetool to get the update.

This update fixes the "Assert( IsIdxValid(i) )" and then crash error when running a server and fixes a crash on startup under linux if you had virtual interfaces.

Known bugs that are still being worked on are the setmaster call stopping server listing and sv_visiblemaxplayers no longer being used.

HL1 Engine Update

We have released an update for the Half-Life 1 engine, run the hldsupdatetool to get the update.

This update fixes crashes on startup if you had a banned.cfg and the sv_password state not being displayed properly in the serverbrowser.

There is a known bug with servers not listing if you use the setmaster command, so remove any setmaster calls until we can release a fix for the issue.

New Community Servers Launched
Posted By Kik: on 23 Sep 2008
» » (0)

Yes, that's right people - we have two new official community Counter-Strike Servers from one of our top-noch Network Sponsors over at www.gameservers.com

We have a server commissioned in both the US and in the UK; both of which we will be monitoring for regular players and community contributors for our Community Server Admin Teams.

Server Information (Get them added to your favourites!):
  • UK Server- 217.163.22.166:27015

  • US Server- 8.3.7.67:27015


GameServers.com offers game server hosting in the United States, Europe, and Canada starting at $0.99 per player. Visit http://www.gameservers.com

GameServers.com also hosts Ventrilo Servers and Teamspeak Servers in 21 worldwide locations!

A Quick-Kik Review
    From my own personal experience with GameServers.com - they are one of the best companies around for value and experience, with just about everything you could think of covered. Counter-Strike, Call of Duty Modern Warfare - Modern Warfare 2. Their Server Control Panel allows you to configure your server, reboot it, and just about every other house-keeping activity you could think of (the best in my opinion being the ability to change your servers location to one of 21 locations worldwide - and at the click of a button!); one of the best examples I have seen for a long time - and the pings rock - above all else, we don't endorse crap on our Network - so it's gotta be good - so what are you waiting for? ;) Mike and his team have you covered.

CS - Many Years On
Posted By Kik: on 01 Mar 2008
» » (0)

Ok, it's CS - many years on time. What's going on in the world of Counter-Strike, has anything changed? Is it still as great as it used to be? Does it still have the community spirit it used to have? Are the CS veterans still out there, getting the odd game of CS in before work? How many people are still sat in their underpants playing CS till the light hours of the morning?! It's not McDonalds causing obesity problems, it's CS - addictiveeee! CS + McDonalds, mmmmmmm.... Hrmmm... well, here's my take on things...

Ok, so it's a fact of life - we all grow up, we all take on new responsibilities (damn), have children of our own, move into jobs which requires more of our time, some of our interests perhaps migrate to more spiritually fulfilling things, gardening for example (It's true i tell ya!)...

From my own personal perspective, the fact is, the CS spirit still lives on today... CS is still one of the most popular games of all times including call of duty modern warfare, and still has one of the greatest online experiences for players to enjoy, one which is very unique in its offerings. Recently, I thought, for old times sakes, I might have a quick game to kill some boredom... a few months later, I am still bringing justice to the CS n00bs in the art of the deagle... *puts shades on*

What a strange experience, that is, to jump on a CS server many years down the line - only to hear the 3l4te c093d m3$$@g3s (you've played too much CS when you can read this without too much trouble, no?!) Omg! Where's the console gone! Oh, just need to turn it back on ;P

Have there been any fundamental changes in the Counter-Strike Community? Is it still the same? The fact is, it's still unique in its attraction to players around the world - a different generation now dominates it, perhaps - but the fact remains, like it or not, CS is one of those games we will all remember, and it is a game which is still very unique in its sense of community and team-orientated game play.

Keep your eyes out for the Counter-Server boys, we're still out there, and we're always happy to accomodate the n00bz for target practice *snickers*.

New Art of War Central Phase 2
Posted By Ronin: on 16 Jan 2007
» (0)

First, let me explain Phase 1. Phase 1 was the purchase of Art of War Central, building new infrastructure, getting rid of the old dead weight, and rebuilding the company to bring out the best. Our company is not where we want it to be yet, but Steve Phallen, our new owner, is pushing us hard and fast.



As you may already know, Steve bought Art of War Central from the old owners only in October. His goal is to revive Art of War Central and to overshadow the rest of the game server companies. Now, this is major task and will take some time, yet Steve has been pushing hard. He’s improved Art of War Central’s customer service, support, billing and sales. The end of phase 1 was to take over another company that had good potential but was not reaching that potential.



And so began Phase 2 with the announcement that Art of War Central buying out VSK Gaming Servers which was based out of St Louis with over 600 game servers and over 150 dedicated servers. While Steve transitions both companies to become a whole, he will be announcing everything here as news posts on Counter-Server first. Now Art of War Central will be upgrading all of the company’s hardware to new twin processor dual core Xeon systems - the best systems available.



We’ve had a great experience with Counter Server; Art of War Central is currently hosting over 550 CS servers. MW2, Now we’re announcing a blow out special on St. Louis AMD dedicated servers, exclusively to Counter Server readers for the next few days. We have a variety of hardware available from inexpensive to mid tier and you can get it at bottom dollar prices.



Art of War Central has many more phases to go before we are the company Steve has envisioned for us. But I can ensure you Phase 3 will be right around the corner, and we will be posting updates here first.



For a list of the hardware currently on blow out sale you can follow this link, available exclusively to Counter Server readers until Tuesday: Art of War Central Counter-Server Blow-out Sale

Thank You For Reading

David over at PHPAdmin let us know there's a new version about, and wanted us to let you know:

PHPAdmin version 3.8 Has Been Released! The big news is the massive update for the HL2 Source plugin for both windows and Linux. The Linux plugin has left the beta stages and is included in the download package. The best thing about PHPAdmin this means you will be able to centralize all your bans, gags and etc using one common PHP web interface across all your mixed-types of servers (CS1.6 windows, Linux DOD:Source, and etc) . I think those that have been using PHPAdmin will be very pleased with this release. Here is the change log:



[CHANGE] Minimal Database Activity. This should decrease CPU usage dramatically.
[NEW] Banned IPs, Tags, Filter moved to use Perl Regular Expressions.
[NEW] Move to memory and speed efficient common lib system developed here at Cy6.
[NEW] Communication for the IRCBot uses 256bit encryption.
[NEW] Multiple steamids per user account. Fixes issue with people having split accounts CS and CS:S.
[NEW] Ircbot can double as a "channel/clan" bot. Triggers used are based on Perl Regular Expressions.
[NEW] Ircbot recognizes multiple steamids per irc auth.
[CHANGE] Reduced CPU usage for the IRCBot and IRCBot related components in the PHPAdmin plugin.
[NEW] Gag (on text chat, mic chat) works in Source servers.
[NEW] Filtering "bad" words in Source servers.
[FIX] Csay and Tsay fixed for Source servers.
[FIX] Hud/chat messages fixed for Source servers.
[FIX] Voting system for Source servers fixed.
[FIX] Fixes to PHPAdmin file execution error sometimes causing a loop.
[NEW] Teambalancer for HL1 (CS Only)
[FIX] afkcheck for CS:S fixed
[NEW] pa_xis changes a player into a drunk with cool effect.
[NEW] being able to stay in spectator without getting kicked when afkcheck is enabled.
[FIX] pa_switch will work no matter what the current state of players is and pa_switch works without killing the player

ZombieMod for CS:S (Beta Testers Required)
Posted By Sivel: on 26 Mar 2006
» (0)

First, what is ZombieMod ?
ZombieMod is a recreation of the Zombie portion of Nemod, a plugin released a while back by Fysh.
For those of you who don't know of it, i'll explain.

When enabled on default settings, the level is loaded 'Dark', all players spawn normally and you cannot damage anybody.
Rifles and the MG are restricted.

After a random amount of time (2-10 seconds), one player is changed into a Zombie complete with model, unable to use any weapon other than the knife, and is given 5,000 health. They can also run alot faster than humans, are provided with night vision and have a wider 'Field Of Vision'.

Zombies change humans to zombies by slashing them once with their knife, new Zombies are then given 2,500 health and also reduced to using their knife only.

When humans attack zombies, they have a knockback effect similar to hollywood movies. When you get a headshot the effect is really displayed.

Zombies can only use voice with other zombies, same for humans.

The round ends when either all zombies are killed, or all Humans have been turned to zombies.

Features:

  • Customisable Zombie models.

  • Zombie sounds for hurt, death and random noises.

  • zombie_health cvar, first zombie is 2x this.

  • zombie_speed cvar for zombie speed.

  • zombie_fov cvar for zombie Field Of View.

  • zombie_knockback cvar for knockback.

  • zombie_restrictions cvar to restrict weapons.

  • zombie_dark cvar to allow for normal lighting during maps.

  • zombie_bonus cvar to add frags for zombifying humans.

  • zombie_teams cvar to use CT for Humans and T for zombies (Experimental).

  • zombie_respawn cvar to respawn zombies killed by humans as a human.

  • zombie_max_ammo cvar for unlimited ammunition.

  • zombie_suicide cvar to remove players ability to 'suicide'.


We have been testing the ZombieMod on a linux 32 slot server with no problems for about two months now. We have just now completed the windows version and we are currently preparing for a public release. We need windows and linux server admins who have to meet the criteria below...

Windows Servers

  • You must have access to the root HLDS folder, which contains .mdmp files created during a crash and be allowed to edit server startup command line.

  • Linux
  • Must be have SSH access, FTP access to the HLDS folder, and the ability to run gdb.


If you think you can be a tester, please email c0ldfyr3 at c0ld(.at.)c0ld.net

Current Beta Servers

Source and Half-Life 1 Dedicated server update released

» » (0)

Updates to the Source and Half-Life 1 dedicated server have been
released. Run the hldsupdatetool to get this update.

This update makes public the "swapbeta" that has been running for a
while. This update is optional but HIGHLY recommended as it fixes the
steamid swapping bug seen on servers. This update also smoothes out some
spiky CPU usage seen on servers and fixes several crashes on Linux
distributions using older GLIBC versions.
