Server FPS monitor

[Kenturrac]

Hey guys,

is there a way to display the server FPS on a root server? I know that this is a feature in some DayZ server hosting packages. We rather would do it on our own. Any help?

 

Thx in advance!

firstly what do you mean by a root server?  Not sure what this means, do you want to find the FPS through the log files or through a web control panel?

 

You can log in as an admin in game by typing:

#login yourpasswordhere

 

followed by

#monitor 5

 

#monitor 5 just says, output the server stats every 5 seconds, to turn it off type

#monitor 0

Root just means for me that it's not a package we bought somewhere like "Epoch Panthera Server 40 Slots".

We just rented a blank server, put an OS on it and all the stuff we need. So there is no FPS monitor provided by the provider. What we are looking for now is a way to display the server FPS on windows(outside of the game).

ok root in the computer world means:

 

1. The base level aka C:\ or "/" in linux.  could be used like "the dayz server root directory" which could be "c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\arma2OA\"

2. Admin/Super User - Has root access, aka can modify anything in the root directory (and children) "/" or "C:\"

 

What you have is a dedicated server. The best way I can think of would be to add the following to your init.sqf and write a script to scrape your log files and output the data to a web interface.

DZE_DiagFpsFast = false; // reports every 1 Min
DZE_DiagFpsSlow = true; // reports every 5 Min
DZE_DiagVerbose = false; // include objects & players, false = only FPS

you'll see log lines like these:

 

16:09:51 "DEBUG FPS : 32.3887"

16:14:52 "DEBUG FPS : 21.5633"

16:19:52 "DEBUG FPS : 18.2025"
