Hmm, it would still look like a network related problem. The "awaiting connection" is the first screen when connecting and happens when the client is trying to establish the connection to the server. I hope someone here has more experience from these types of problems then me. Thank you for the compliments about the mod though. It's always nice to hear people like it.

NAT is used to create a local network behind a public IP address. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation (192.168.1.XXX ) Looks like it would be a local network where the server is. Unfortunately I'm not an expert in network hardware and setups. If you could get access to the router you could try forwarding the ET server port to the server machine and then use the public IP address in the connection attempt.

Is the server behind NAT?

set sv_wwwDlDisconnected 0 Change this to 1. It will then disconnect the clients for the downloads. They will join spec after the download is complete.

The !stats command will show total kills and deaths made by SMG weapons which are saved in the dataase always. All the other statistics in that command are only for the current map.

The id length given for both !userinfo and !userinfopb is the same 8 characters. So you probably had some typo too. The other problem, check the g_dbUserMaxAge and ensure it is something long and not "30".

Will be added into the next version.

The kills and deaths made by SMG weapons are always saved if other xp saving works.

g_bot_minplayers was removed from the mod, you should use omnibot.cfg setting maxbots instead. It's not a problem to have excess cvar in the config though.

You can scroll the different scoreboards using the tab button. Just press it couple times quickly and it will change.You can also disable all of the player rating and kill rating from the server side, but remember that commands like listteams and howfair use those values. Take a look at g_playerRating and g_killRating to disable them completely.

Did you do the !resetmyxp during the warmup? Did you shutdown the server before intermission or start of the next map?

Mapvoting is g_gametype 6. You should fix that in the rotation cfg. Also you should set a cvar only in one cfg file. Will help you later if you make changes. I personally chain execs so that I first exec a generic cfg with some settings that are the same or similar (e.g. sv_x cvars) to all servers I may start up. Inside that file I do exec silent.cfg which is more specific to the mod I'm starting. In the very end I exec mapcycle and set watchdog command.

Indeed blackops, I didn't think about it but I did a quick test with 2 exec commands on the command line and it appeared that the second one was not executed. NiEGaz0wany, please try using only one exec in the command line. You can exec several config files by adding "exec silent.cfg" inside the server.cfg for example.

No it's not a problem. Just thinking if you are editing in wrong folder. In this instance I would need to get more information to get further. Also excluding different accidental errors. I have tested the age settings you are using and those did work correctly in the tests. Try to set it to 9. EDIT: Tested 31 without issues. (using !nextmap and /rcon timelimit commands)

0:02 Lua API: can not open file LVL.lua 0:02 Lua API: can not open file pow.lua 0:02 Lua API: can not open file guid.lua The Lua files are not in the correct folder. If they were but had errors, the log would have error messages from the Lua interpreter. If it is possible for you to set rconpassword temporarily to something meaningless, I could join the server to do some checks. Don't post it here, but if it is possible I could join the server where you could give it.

Check the sound file is in correct format. It needs to be mono sound wav, most common problem (to my experience) is using stereo files.

PB does not need to be enabled.

Did you put the path to the sound file correctly? You can test the sound using /rcon playsound For example playsound sound/greeting/henkka.wav , the path is of course what is used inside your custom pk3.

You can test if g_XPSaveMinXP 0 has any effetct. By default it is -1, which disables it completely.

Database related cvars are g_dbDirectory and g_dbUserMaxAge. Set the g_dbUserMaxeAge to "90d" dor exanple if you are using the default config that came with silent. Of course you can use any value you like, but untforunately the default config is the using setting 30 secods which is wrong. The g_dbDirectory is "database" by default. If you are using the stucture that came with the download, this should be correct. Moving this to installation/setup questions.

Whar is the cfg execution order you have? Do you execute both from the command line because I don't see exec to execute the other one in either one. Also // MAP ROTATION //exec campaigncycle.cfg // Campaign mode exec objectivecycle.cfg // Objective mode //exec lmscycle.cfg // Last Man Standing mode // WATCHDOG // in case the game dies with an ERR_DROP // or any situation leading to server running with no map //set com_watchdog 10 // defaults 60 set com_watchdog_cmd "exec campaigncycle.cfg" // defaults to quit // laduje mape oasis map oasis set omnibot_enable "1" set omnibot_path "/omni-bot" exec boty.cfg Remove the "map oasis" line from between. You already set the maps when you execute the objectivecycle.cfg. Also I notice in silent.cfg you have exec mapvotecycle.cfg set com_watchdog 60 set com_watchdog_cmd "exec mapvotecycle.cfg" Yoyu only need to set them once, i.e. in one config file.

If the file is empty, it only means there is nothing worth logging there. The important thing is that it is created. I just noticed some typos in your config part you posted: [b]set g_dbUserMaxAge "12od"[/b] Please verify you don't have the tags in the real config file.

Oops, we posted at the same time. From tmy post above.

What is the silEnT version you are using? EDIT: Indeed, you are using custom config and the g_cheatLog doesn't have value without setting. Please set it to any file name. "cheat.log" is fine and consistent with the default config. After next map start from setting it, you should get loggings there if you have problems with the silEnT GUID.

The default config does have 2 bugs regarding the age cvars. First: set g_dbUserMaxAge "30" Will give the age of 30 seconds. Something like "90d" should be efficient. I see that you have changed the g_dbUserMaxAge to "12o" which is correct and also you said that the admins maintain their levels. Secondone is that it is missing the g_XPSaveMaxAge, which means that the default one is used which is 1w (7 days). The g_XPSaveMaxAge_xp is 30 d, but the g_XPSaveMaxAge will reset both XP and rating points so it will clear the XP before the g_XPSaveMaxAge_xp will have chance to take effect. There is on more possibility I can think of now. This is rare, but could you check from the cheats.log file if your silEnT GUID is changing. This is rare case but I have seen couple players who for some reason generate new GUIDs. Possibly because of file write permissions are insufficient. If you have PB GUID then silEnT will log all changes to the silEnT GUID in the cheats.log.
