Hi Community,

i hope to find help here.

I have since some days problems with NS. I get heavy lag´s and the message "Scripting is not allowed on this server" in middle of the screen after some Minutes when i play the game.

Did you know about this problem and can give me a answer?

Thanks!

Got scripts?

if so, either assign the scripted keys to normal actions, or change to a script friendly server.

The scripting message might be because of the lag. At least the old hlguard took it as scripting when there was some lagspikes/other "stops" in the game flow that caused commands to stack up. Have you got any idea if its the real connection lag or just hardware and fps "lag"?

Type net_graph 3 in your console while playing and see how the readings go, is the fps jumping up'n'down and is there any loss/choke.

Did you recently run a hack/hook on that PC. You know, for checking demos and stuff...

If so, your best bet is to delete every cfg file in your steamfolder. If that doesnt solve it you might need to reinstall. You could also be the victim of slowhacking. Again: delete all configs and make sure you mark them as write-only next time. (Make also sure you dont run hl in dev mode or it will ignore the read-only)

You get scripting not allowed when your fps lags quite alot, or internet.

hi,

i dont use scripts or hacks...

0 choke, 0 loss with netgraph.

the ping dont go high when i get the big lags.

the problem is, if i see only 1 alien, its okay.

when i see some aliens and buildings or structures (TF, turrets...,OCs who work) the lag is not more a little lag. its a very-big-20sec-lag.

and - i have a brandnew ns-install...

I get the "Scripting is not allowed on this server" and i hack all the time... I'm just kidding on the second part , but whenever i ask people ingame they always tell me to stop hacking...but with 36 deaths to 10 kills maybe i should start (yea i blame ns for being alien sided...nothing should need more then 5 well placed shots for a kill end of story )

Do you have a wireless keyboard or mouse? I DO and i get this scripting-accusation about 5-10+ times per hour of play.

My belief of what happens is sometimes the computer, Microsoft-wireless-keyboard drivers, get bogged down and it keeps a buffer of all the keys you just pressed...and when it gets free memory...it RUSHES all those keys out real fast to the system which gets detected as a script attempt. Another theory is wireless keyboard signal packet loss and keyboard keeps all the keys internally in the keyboards circuit and when it reconnects, WHOOSH all keys sent in one packet...

If you ever typed in a password or something in some textbox and just typed out 10 keys but theirs a 2 second delay and then WHOOSH all the keys are typed...then you know what i mean.

O YEA almost forget... ingame when your controls start to get lagged out, as part of the message "Scripting is not allowed on this server" is to freeze your controls...causing the lag you feel, Press the CONSOLE KEY!... this will STOP the anti-scripting countermeasures for that instance... stupid anti-script crap never stopped any super fades anyway... its just an annoyance to everyone.

LOL Bad intranet, bad! Nizb0ag, you just made my day.



Are you sure? This message is generated by an exception from when the server has mp_blockscripts set to "1", (aka. TRUE).

And by the way... Cheats != Scripts. So we hear you that you aren't cheating/hacking but having multiple binds per command especially if it uses "wait" commands will cause this.

Does that help clear anything up?

I had some problems with some specific integrated motherboard sound card. It made sounds fuzzy and dropped fps like that causing some heavy looping. Combined with 256 ram and win xp it was a loopfest until all the graphics and sounds were loaded up ingame.

Does the game work properly after you've had the nasty stop and see a building? It might be a precache problem. You might want to try fs_lazy_precache 0 and 1 if it makes any difference. What I've understood it decides whether the game loads up graphics while joining the server or when they're displayed ingame. Default is 0 (precache while joining the game) as far as I know.

Do any other games do the same thing?

Some system info might be useful too.

i use 5 minutes a wlan-internet-connection. i need to install a driver for the extern wlan-receiver. but now i use a lan-connection directly to my router (i play some years without lags with the router).

i've gotten "scripting not allowed on this server" messages on mp_blockscript 0 servers without executing any scripts, so it definitely doesn't have anything directly to do with scripting.

Niebelung, i have the same problem. No Scripts, no hacks and heavy lags every 5 minutes and anwaly if i see more than 1 or 2 aliens or marins at same time. Same big lag i get if i go around a corner and see as marine the oc´s begin to shoot. cant move, get the message "scripting ist not allowed" and have a 15sec-lag...

Is that an engine glitch then?

no

yes.


I am a hacker.

My script makes me say "Medpack" in team chat and notify the commander that i need a medpack...

At the same time!

Yes, it's true.

fear me.

I never even get lag/fps drop when it happens . . . go figure (50 mbit + 400 fps).

Meh that's nothing. I have one that when I merely hear an enemy it says "alien spotted" aloud and types "I can hear an enemy" in team chat.

Fear ME!
