I think a lot of the problem with the gamemodes_server.txt (and gamemodes.txt) it that it's not laid out in a very user friendly way. We use TCAdmin and it doesn't display very well as there is a lot of white space between the vars and values. I did try to 'tidy it up', but my server wouldn't start - I probably managed to delete a single character in there and messed it up, but I gave up at that point and just put my backup file in there.
I don't mean to keep banging on about it, but I just know we will have a lot of admins having problems with this.............

Before I could at least connect to my server via the LAN tab on the browser but with these setting I couldn't even get that. :-( Thanks for trying anyway! *I did have to change one thing; the batch file wouldn't run with the "srcds_run" command so I changed it back to "srcds" instead.

Stop editing the file…. ARGHHH!!! If you are reading this on the list, you are choosing the wrong emails to turn to and in turn spreading mis-information. Ido of Valve re-stated the stance on this just yesterday so you don’t need archives to see this. 1/ Leave gamemodes.txt alone – SERIOUSLY. It will get replaced next server patch anyway… The message to not edit it is there for a reason.2/ Define your own mapgroup as desired in gamemodes_server.txt using the same syntax.3/ Make sure thar mapgroup is in the list of multiplayer mapgroups for that game mode (classic casual etc)3/ Call your mapgroup and a valid map within it from the launch command. Here is an example command line and gamemodes_server.txt for:- A classic-casual server- With a modified freeze-time of 10 seconds- Custom map group with ALL cs_ and de_ maps included- Using ONLY the new gamemodes_server.txt – no gamemodes.txt or server.cfg modifications are required (!) COMMAND LINE EXAMPLE: srcds_run -game csgo –console –usercon –ip x.x.x.x –port yyyyy +net_public_adr x.x.x.x +game_type 0 +game_mode 0 // 0 – 0 = Classic Casual mode in gamemodes_server.txt+mapgroup mg_allclassic_custom // mg_allclassic_custom custom map group I defined+map cs_office // cs_office is a member of my custom map group and thus valid GAMEMODES_SERVER.TXT EXAMPLE: "GameModes_Server.txt"{ "gameTypes" { "classic" { "gameModes" { "casual" { "convars" { mp_freezetime "10" //Buyt time at round start before round commences } "mapgroupsMP" // List of mapgroups valid for this game mode { "mg_allclassic_custom" "" } } } } } "mapgroups" { "mg_allclassic_custom" // mapgroup definition { "name" "mg_allclassic_custom" "maps" { "cs_office" "" "cs_italy" "" "de_dust2" "" "de_train" "" "de_inferno" "" "de_dust" "" "de_aztec" "" "de_nuke" "" } } }} _______________________________________________ Csgo_servers mailing list [email protected] https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_servers
