My defrag server, this took me ages to get online because of the sheer amount of maps but this server has the lot. Every map that's over 12,500 maps which adds up to over 27.5GB in size. This server will be online forever because I am never doing that again. Lol

Good show we need a defrag server I wasnt happy with how mine went but I gave it ago. Fingers crossed should be popular. Wont having 27 gig of maps on the server slow it down?
What I've done is repacked all the maps alphabetically so all the maps that begin with A are in one .pk3 all the maps that begin with B are in one ect. So 12,500 maps are in 26 .pk3s, obviously auto downloading is disabled on the server as it is on every defrag server so players get the maps from the q3df database.
Just a tip for players new to defrag, the server runs at 125fps (sv_fps 125) so set your snaps to 125 and feel the smoothness.
Had some stability issues with the server crashing randomly and lag spikes. Also sometimes it takes a few try's to load a map. Looking in to it but gameservers.com are useless, they just told me to change the location.
So more than likely I will be moving the server on to my Linux dedicated box after I've sorted it out and got the left 4 dead servers up. But I'll have to check the CPU/Ram/Network ect usage of the other stuff on the box before I move it over.
I shall update here with what I'm doing next week.

Defrag server back up as I fancied abit of strafing, have added all new maps that have come out since it went offline so it's completely upto date again.
