Hello, I'm trying to set up a HLDS server running Sven Coop 4. I did the initial set up, and when I run the server for regular Half-Life clients can connect (both on the LAN and on the internet) but when I try to run the server for Sven Coop, clients on the LAN time out (as well as members of the internet??) I can't connect to it outside of our network because I don't have a convenient second internet connection. Clients from outside of the LAN are also being timed out. To launch the server I run: ./hlds_run -game SvenCoop +ip 192.168.1.150 -num_edicts 4096
I have to have the +ip flag otherwise it tries to bind to 127.0.0.1 and I can't connect to the steam servers. The server connects the the master servers and shows up in the game browser. People are finding it, It just times them out as soon as they finish loading. I've noticed that clients from the LAN are connecting on port 270005 but I'm not sure how this should be handled (should it be forwarded to the server or client?) I have the port forwarding working because when I run the server with: ./hlds_run -game valve +ip 192.168.1.150 -num_edicts 4096 It adds itself to the servers fine and clients from the LAN can connect and play (from the internet browser not through the LAN) The only thing about the sever set up which has been un-orthodox, is the installation of sven coop. Since it ships as an exe, I installed it to a random directory on a windows machine, and then copied the files to the server with winscp. Since only the dlls ship with sven coop, I found a copy of hl_i386.so on the internet and copied it into the dlls folder (which appears to work fine and its the same library has been tested using the '-game valve' switch) Here is the console output after the server launches: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Auto detecting CPU Using AMD Optimised binary.
