Yes, because mp32 is not broken enough in TF2. The game is designed for 24 players and mp32 is enough blasphemy. I've seen ONE server where this works (no idea if it is intentional) and that's ICS:s peliburkki custom server with mp30 and HUGE custom payload maps. Brilliant fun. Valve maps are

It would be pretty cool to remove the limit all together (On every game)... Have server owners decide what they'd like to have and run mods based on that. Customization is what makes games fun. Kyle. 2011/7/18 Björn Rohlén bjorn.roh...@gmail.com: Yes, because mp32 is not broken enough in TF2.

I remember that HL2DM was the source of getting over 24 players on TF2 with binary hack in thefirst place when it came out, way before Valve officially allowed more than 24 players. So HL2DM used to be able to run 32 slots, but i guess its back after OrangeBox change or some other update

The engine was originally compiled for 32 slots, but maxplayers was limited to 24. DF's plugin simply removed the maxplayers cap, letting you use all 32 slots. A while back they bumped it to 33 slots ( to accommodate 32+sourcetv/replay ) and it's been like that ever since. They removed the 24x

Just looking through the Alien Swarm base (I don't have the 2007 code immediately accessible), it looks like 32 is hardcoded into a bunch of places, but then there's this: // This is the max # of players the engine can handle // Note, must be power of 2 #define ABSOLUTE_PLAYER_LIMIT 64 #define

Speaking of other places that the player count may be relevant, the TF2 vote system uses client index 99 to represent the server as the caller of a vote, specifically in the VoteStart usermessage. I did a bunch of reverse engineering of the messages and events that the votes use, more
