[QUOTE=Robotboy655;50523060]Test what exactly? -multirun is not meant to allow you flood servers with players from 1 Steam account. It is only a developer tool.[/QUOTE]
Currently I'm working on something which gets called frequently for every player on the server.
As a result I would like to test how it affects server performance with a realistic number of players before rolling it out.
I often also have customers with performance issues, and using dbugr on an empty server isn't as useful as a full server - but who wants to run that on their main server with 70+ players when they're already having issues.
It would also give me a nice way to be able to estimate how many players a game server should be able to handle - and set the max slots accordingly.

oh, and not to mention general benchmarking to test Linux performance vs Windows performance or the performance of different hardware with as realistic a simulation as possible

You can make a bunch of bots and use bot_mimic to do stuff if that helps.
Do bots run "clientisde lua" though? Really thats what I'm aiming for here
[editline]15th June 2016[/editline]
In general, I don't think bots are a very good representation for players - but I'd love to be wrong here.
Getting a sizeable improvement with cl_threaded_bone_setup 1 and Client Animation in terms of frametime now, roughly about 40-45%. Great work.

Start GMod with -textmode -multirun +connect 127.0.0.1
Huh, -textmode, is that what I think it is? Console client?

CMD I believe
You can't type into it, so you have to run all your commands through launch parameters

oh great, the fucked up soundscapes are back on the pre-release branch

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;50527654]oh great, the fucked up soundscapes are back on the pre-release branch[/QUOTE]
Are they actually fucked up, or did you edit the soundscape files on your client OR server? This includes overriding the files with addons, intentionally or otherwise.

This is as vague as it can be. You do know that you have to enable convars for mcore to work, as well as the fact that they do not save?
Is there any possible way to get Garry's Mod to run via the textmode on Windows Server 2012 R2?

FCVAR_ARCHIVE is not set on them, and Robotboy/Willox doesn't want them to be permanent in-case someone who doesn't know what they're doing enables them and forgets how to disable them since it's still all in testing.

cl_threaded_bone_setup seems to improve animation stuff more than anything, you prolly won't see any improvements unless you're looking at a lot of animated entities (????)

If you are not seeing any improvements with gmod_mcore_test 1, try setting mat_queue_type 2. I was trying to point this out earlier.
is there a reason why enabling multicore rendering requires you to rejoin the game for it to work? this wasnt the case a few months ago iirc
[QUOTE=AJ10017;50529277]is there a reason why enabling multicore rendering requires you to rejoin the game for it to work? this wasnt the case a few months ago iirc[/QUOTE]
It doesnt.
gmod_mcore_test 1
mat_queue_mode 2
That will enable it the moment its changed.

It's huge for servers with a large player count. Very desirable improvement.
Any idea on what cause this?

It's [url]https://github.com/Facepunch/garrysmod-issues/issues/2608[/url]. I don't know why that would be related to your game not opening at all. Have you tried launching with -condebug and seeing what's output in console.log?

It seemed to happen just before I got the game update pop-up progress bar thing on Steam, so I'm assuming some Steam update fuckery. It worked just fine after the update finished.
Also, see my previous post on this page as well as Zeh Matt's.
Multicore isn't actually kicking on in all cases unless you set mat_queue_type from -1 to 2.
-1 will work fine, but only after it has been set to 2 first.

I'm pretty sure it all works if you set gmod_mcore_test to 1 before joining a server. The fix for that's building now and will be on dev/pre-release later.
