Ive actually taken the search key out from the server.cfg right before i left4work this evening.
I just popped back home and looked thru the logs and public traffic has actually managed to get on my server. No Richard, im not obsessed aboout having my server full, but i just like giving a bit back to the community as a whole. Another thread mentioned that search key was connecting fine to 4 player campaigns but NOT 8 player VS - i can confirm this to be true (for me anyway) - set my search key up again - create a 4 player campaign lobby - start - im on to my server instatly. Quit, start a 8 player VS lobby (with me as leader) - start game - no connect. whats wrong here? On Mon, Mar 16, 2009 at 4:42 PM, TheNob HLDS <[email protected]> wrote: > Cool.
