Hello everyone,
As per Mr. Satan's suggestion, I am bringing this post to the Server Chat forum. I had originally posted in the Bug Reports forum. My original thread can be found here:
http://forum.esforces.com/showthread.php?t=43883
Anyway, my problem in a nutshell is as follows. I once had a ESF 1.1 server (on WON) that was very successful. I am now trying to migrate to Steam and run a 1.2 server. However when I do, my server locks up after 24-48 hours while people are on the server playing. HLDS (I used the HLDS install only, not the client version of Steam) is the ONLY thing running on this Windows XP box that is a relatively new install and is up to date as of 6/9/2004. I do NOT have this problem when running ESF 1.2 under WON. I also do NOT have this problem when running standard Half-Life (AKA valve mod). Both my ESF 1.2 WON server and my Half-Life Steam server ran for a week with no problems whatsoever.
I was told on my other thread that not much can be done to help me. So this is the next logical question: Does anyone else run a win32 based ESF 1.2 Steam server? If so, do you use the HLDS or do you install the dedicated server from the Steam client window?
Any insight is appreicated.
