IIRC what you set on the commandline *IS* the highest you can set it, and although I'm less certain about this, I don't think any attempt to set maxplayers to a higher value than what was set on the server command line will work.
Please do us a favor however and do not ask valve to lock things such as maxplayers. Things a lot of operators really don't want have a funny way of showing up in updates. :) Personally I don't really care about having big servers but there are some operators who have the hardware and bandwidth to handle it properly, and continue to operate them quite successfully and I would much rather Valve leave it up to the server operator's discretion than lock it at some quasi-arbitrary value. Does setting "+maxplayers <# you want as upper limit>" among the command line options not work for you? > You can change the cvar maxplayers before the game starts. > When you put this two lines in your autoexec.cfg the maxplayers cvar is > overwritten and fixed (tested with css): > > maxplayers 64 > map de_dust > > Maybe Valve can lock maxplayers, when it is set with -maxplyers in the > start command. > _______________________________________________ > To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, > please visit: > https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux > _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
