I hate to add even more spam to this discussion, however i feel obliged
to note that hacking the precompiled dlls shipped with srcds would be in
breach of the terms of service you accept by using hldsupdatetool and
installing the server, and asking valve to condone this activity does
not make sense.

I have to agree with that.  My servers are payed for with donations,
and it is annoying having to be down to 22 slots.  Not only does that
make their be less actual players in the server, but it takes us out
of that top list when people filter by max players.


Regardless all of this is moot.  I haven't seen an official valve
response to any posts on this list in a really long time.  I havent
seen them say anything about the cap ever.  It's really annoying and
shows a complete lack of care for the community or laziness on Valve's
part.  Most companies have a community manager that can act as a
liaison and make sure things get done...the closest I have seen to
that is Mike Durand, and he doesn't post nearly often enough to be a
true "community manager" not to mention he is just a programmer and
other less qualified people should be dealing with the community
honestly.

I can understand why 32 slots aren't being listed;  while I enjoy 32
slot servers they definitely are a chaotic mess of gibs and hardly a
good introduction to TF2 for poor noobs not knowing any better.  Would
personally run my own servers at 24 slots to keep to the 'true' TF2
style;  but would like to be able to add that reserve in there.

Little bit ridiculous.  25 would be nice though. =)

Hiya,

What i've done is the following;

Server is set to 25 slots using the plugin to beat the slot limit.
Sourcemod
on its turn is configured to advertise only 24 slots, so

we have 1

hidden reserved slots incase a admin needs to enter the game.

Unfortunatly, this setup is still being filterd out by the steam
master servers.

Is it possible that we come to a solution somehow, were we can
implement a reserved slot, but the active player slot

limit doesnt

exceed 24 players, and it will still show up at the master list?

Cheers,

Saint K.
