old Using sv_msg tag & servers

Okay, I try to host a gane of my own sometimes, like when there are few servers or they're all full or I want to play a map and there are no available servers.

I'm successful but I always notice two things about it.

When I try to use the script command "sv_msg" in the ~ menu, I can only make one word.

For example: I type "sv_msg lol this sucks"
What displays is: "* lol"

Why can I only do one word and yet some other people I've seen can do multiple words?

Also another thing is, I often experience little, not-long-lasting, or absolutely no people at all joining my game, yet I'm able to join server's of other people pretty easily (though I do sometimes lag out, but not too often). What's up with that? My firewalls are all letting CS2D go through.

I figure that these things MAY be common knowledge so please dont n00b bash me because I did take time to look and still haven't found anything.

You must put your message in quotations.

sv_msg This is a message.

yields:

* This

-------------------

sv_msg "This is a message."

yields:

* This is a message.

-------------------

This is true for anything in the console.
name "New Nick Name"
sv_name "My Server Title!"
bind "F1" "ak47; primammo; secammo; vesthelm; vest"
etc.

Thanks a bunch

Now I can finally work w/ my server

Any help though as to why nobody (or very few people) ever seems to connect to my server?

old I'm not logged in? wtf? :P

Something to add onto |jUSTiN|'s post.

You don't have to add a " to the end of your phrase, if that makes it any faster when typing

sv_msg "This is a message.

yields:

* This is a message.

reasons that few people goes onto ur server

well, here they are

1. Ur Location : maybe ur located in a "remote" area and so your ping is generally higher and the bar just goes red

2. Maybe the people doesnt like the server's map, for example, i absolutely hate laser and monastery and italy but really like dust and those maps with a lighter scene

3. The Server Name: You shud try to use a more creative name rather than the default one (Player's Server or CenturyBlade's Server)

4. And if all else fails, check your Internet, make sure its got good connections, and if you're using a router, check to make sure you've forwarded the right ports

old Lolz.

You should try adding a quote like this :
sv_msg "your text here."

And not like this...
"sv_msg your text here"

Then it will automaticly take the first word, and ignore the rest. So you have to be exact when using these commands. I have sometimes spelled it wrong too, but you learn from your mistakes. Lolz!

cookie
This should solve your mystery.

--------------------------------------
Other console commands:
sv_name "your server name"
sv_ff (1 for ON, 0 for OFF. Friendly Fire)
sv_fow (1 for ON, 0 for OFF. Fog Of War.)
sv_restart (Round restart) (You can also delay it with seconds, by typing 'sv_restart 10' for a ten seconds delay restart.)
listplayers (A console player id list. Which you can use to ban and kick players with.)
resinfo (This is not so much used but, it shows how many entitiesthere is on the map.)
name "your name here" (This is a name changer command.)
uprate "1" (This is how to set upload rate, lolz.)

Ok you know the rest.

yeah i knew all those commands and a few more cuz i read the Manual.htm file

only thing is that everyone keeps telling me to "UPRATE 1 N00B" and it literally does nothing . people still walk through walls and shoot fast with weapons that aren't supposed to shoot fast, like deagle and AWP and laser. I like turning my speakers on and listening to the incredibly loud blasts go off in such fast succession when they're not suppose to fire that fast. and i know some of it (especially on laser) is a hack and that really needs to be fixed because it totally kills the point of the laser map... there's also some kind of other map i cant remember which but people somehow get a laser and i know thats not supposed to be possible either, if i recollect the map's name i'll post it

normally whenever i host a server i use cs2d or dust1 or aztec... sometimes laser and sometimes castle but not too much of those because like i mentioned laser is gay now cuz people hack it and castle just isnt popular

and i don't think New York (more specifically Long Island) classifies as a remote area


edit: i think its Druglab but im not sure i just read another post about a similar problem

old Hmm...

The thing that makes the laggy players go through the walls, is the huge amount of latency, ping, lagg, and maybe a bad connection. So there is some of your answers. I guess.

Uprate 1 does do something. It refreshes yourself at a higher rate so then people can actually see you moving fluidly. If you didn't uprate 1, people would see you jumping. If you saw someone jumping(not lag bursting, that's a different story) you should ask them to uprate 1, and they'll begin to move smoothly so you can see them properly.

About the weapons that shoot faster than they should, it's common with some people, I call it gun lag. The server doesn't recognize the gun switch, so let's say someone with an Awp switched to a USP, but the server doesn't recognize it, you would see a fast shooting awp, though those "awp" bullets will only do the damage of a USP, and vice versa.

People that do hack maps can obtain weapons that aren't available, like lasers, but I don't see that often, I guess you're just unlucky.

In the map you were talking about, cs_Druglab_JW, there are actually lasers in that map. I guess you haven't found out yet and you just assumed people were hacking, but it's locked by a fence you have to destroy(and I'll leave it at that, find out yourself cookie ).

Yeah I actually found out the secret of druglab shortly after I posted that message, someone showed me how

PS: Flamethrowers = RAWR

And thanks for the help w/ uprate, I thought it was software-based, like it made OTHER players appear to move normally... if what you say is true than it must be a lot of people are hacking or not uprating because I see people jump and go through walls on a pretty regular basis

old Lol.

Kimkat old rookie or not cs_druglap_JW is a new map that no1 would have even played unless it was implemented in the new cs2d.

I know that the other half of the community dont even bother to download justin's map pack. Even though most of his maps are actually pretty good. So unless someone takes the time and opens up the map in their editor and notice something about the wall they won't really know about the secret to getting the laser.

OT- of track (kinda)

Shouldn't we talk about server commands, etc.
I start then.

How to view the map's resources, etc.
For those who didn't know...
Console commands:
"resinfo"
"entityinfo"

It shows lists of entities, and sprites info, etc.

Manual.htm (located in the main CS2D folder) is the only one I know of that has any server/console commands.
