Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server Available
Has anyone figured out how to start a server on anything other than coop mode? If I enter map mapname versus in the server console it changes to versus mode but that isn't really good enough for a mass hosting environment. I tried sv_gametypes versus but it still starts as coop. In addition I tried +map mapname versus on command line as well as +map mapname versus with no luck. I am also having an issue with sv_password. Whenever it is set it breaks server queries and it doesn't seem to do anything anyway. Clients can connect without specifying a password yet I type sv_password into the server console and a password is set.

Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server Available
JR The Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server files are now available on JR Steam. Use the game name left4dead2 from hldsupdatetool to JR download them. These are not the final set of files, so there JR will be another small update before the game is released. Queries wont work with sv_password set - as in l4d1 ... also, there seems to be a problem with setting maxplayers - its always set to 18, and queries report randomly 4 or 8 on same configs, different servers. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server Available
Start the game and create a lobby. While you are in your lobby, open the console (usually the ~ key if you started the game with the -console option). In the console, enter: mm_dedicated_force_servers IP:PORT Where IP is the IP address of your server and PORT is the listening port (usually 27015). Start the game and it should connect to your server. - Dave Shlomi Turjeman wrote: can you explain again? how I can make a lobby for my server?

Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server Available
When i played co-op, i could use the sv_search_key string that worked like a charm, however it did not for versus mode. Versus mode works fine when you use the mm_dedicated line. But still, i would have though valve would add a option that people in the same group as the server should have a option to reserve one that is emtpy, go in the lobby and use that server. I cant imagine that normal regular players know anything about sv_search_key or the mm_dedicated line. There is just no easy way to let people of your group use the server from the lobby. Even better, if you tell people IN the lobby that they should use those 2 options, you cannot.. the console wont open in the lobby. On Tue, 17 Nov 2009 13:04:55 -0500, David A.

Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Dedicated Server Available
It's a messy system that certainly needs to be fixed, but it's probably low on Valve's list of priorities. That said, you don't have to get people in your lobby to put in the mm_dedicated_force_servers stuff. Only the lobby leader needs to have that option set. - Dave Eric Riemers wrote: When i played co-op, i could use the sv_search_key string that worked like a charm, however it did not for versus mode.

the srcds_run script doesn't seem to like -fork 1, but there's no reason it shouldn't work if not for the script. -fork 1 should be fine, and there are advantages to -fork 1 over not forking at all. -Original Message- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of f7 f0rkz Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2009 3:31 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] L4D2 1 fork crashes the server Yeah, i figured as much.

Re: [hlds_linux] L4D2 + NAT
Also, with further testing, if I force the server to lan (sv_lan 1 on startup) this issue is gone altogether, which leads me to believe that L4D2 is still not playing nicely with NAT lans.
