(Regular PvP traffic or MvM traffic.) Set “tf_mm_servermode 2” to be placed in the MvM pool. * For MvM matchmaking, if 6 players are sent to your server to start a new game, it will switch to whatever map the players selected. * You will need a TF gameserver account to accept matchmaking traffic. * You can switch the server in and out of any matchmaking mode pool or back to any regular game mode at any time. * The CPU usage for a 6 player MvM game is about the same as for a regular TF server. (Yep, this mode requires significantly more CPU cycles per player than the PvP mode, that’s an unfortunate fact.) Given the surge of players that comes with any major release, and the player / server ratio of this game mode, the demand for MvM servers will probably be high. We expect that a large number of players will want to try out the new mode, so we will be converting most of our servers to host MvM, and then adjust the allocation based on what players are playing.

However we need to say NO to Fake clients servers and other harmful strategies. 2011/12/9 E. Olsen ceo.eol...@gmail.com I think you missed my point. It should be all about player choice, and trying to deliver what they're looking for. By giving the player the OPTION of being placed in a modified server, they would (IMO) be helping the TF2 community in the long run by showing the players the variety that's out there. There can be no doubt that Quickplay itself can (and most likely is) limiting the experience of some players who don't use (or might not even know how to use) the server browser itself. There is a reason that the modding communites for these types of games have flourished, and it's certainly NOT because all people want is the vanilla experience. Again, I'm not even saying one is better than the other - every player develops their own preferencesbut it's clear that the moddable nature of the game give it LEGS. How many people woudl ahve never exprienced the Gun Game mod on CSS if the only way they ever joined a server was by getting sent to a vanilla server via a matchmaking button? I fully understand the voices out there who say give all that Quickplay traffic to us - we'll homogenize our servers however we have to to get it, as their probably the same folsk who throw up servers and expect them to fill up on theri own with little to no active server seeding by real players, etc. However, a modified server is not a negative, it's simply DIFFERENT. While most of my server will never benefit from Quickplay due to the over 70 custom maps that we run, it's really a shame that they don't, because those players are missing out on a ton of high-quality maps (we were among the very first servers to host hoodoo, frontier, and a plethora of other maps that were in varous stages of development, and we still host a couple of dozen in various stages of beta) that they'll most likely never get to see by hitting that button. Again, I'm not turning my nose up at Vanilla, or any game mode/style for that matter - to each their own. I'm simply saying that by building vanilla walls around quickplay players, without even giving them the OPTION of being matched to a modified server and/or a custom map, we are denying them what has made TF2 great in the first place. Personally, I'd like TF2 to be around indefinitely, and I'm only interested in what I think will keep both new and veteran players interested in the game in the long-term.

If the above doesn't fix any mismatched files, then I would shutdown the game server, rename the /orangebox/bin folder to bin.old, then run the update again so it loads a fresh copy of the bin folder. I believe the files you are having trouble with are all in that folder. You might also wish to be sure Steam is not running on the box during the update process.

That's what I am talking about not a traditional server browser.

Re: [hlds] Killing Floor server name and other commands
Right Like valve as ever given us a proper cfg file. BTW there are 2 files with killing floor with all the settings that you'll need Its called killingfloor.ini and there is also one called default.ini which store all the default values for killing floor.

We've noticed several times some of our Left 4 Dead servers will drop all players due to a 'Timeout' (after reading the server console) during the map change. Players get the 'Lost connection to server, reconnecting.' message with a countdown timer of 30 seconds. Most of the time the servers are fine and have no issues. The actual server does not crash, and you can reconnect to it later, which reminded me of the problem experienced by TF2 servers where it uploaded game stats during map change. Is this still/was it ever a problem with Left 4 Dead servers? Does anyone know anything about this problem?

That is what I said when I started this thread. But I got Flamed for it. My pub servers are vanilla and my search_key servers have sourcemod installed however I don't use it to change the game play at all just administration.

Quoting Richard Eid richard@gmail.com: http://store.steampowered.com/news/2349/ That's what is going on. Left 4 Dead players are now going to official servers by default. Since the nature of the lobby system would allow for people to end up on any random server out there, the Left 4 Dead experience was being ruined by modded servers. If you create a lobby and look under Game Settings, you now have the options of Official Dedicated(default), Best Available Dedicated and Local Server. It's now up to the player to decide which type of server he or she wants to end up on. My guess, which can't be all that far off just by noticing what's been mentioned here on HLDS, is that players are using the default of Official Dedicated because it guarantees them the cleanest experience possible. -Richard Eid On Sun, Mar 15, 2009 at 7:17 AM, Mark Edwards sixtysixno...@hotmail.comwrote: Zero players on our three L4D servers in the 48 hours or so since the second update.

[hlds] weird sv_search_key problem
I got this weird problem with sv_search_key It only works with campaigns . If I start a lobby on any campaign. Type in the search_key then start the game it start insistently. If I start a VS lobby then type in my search key when I start the game it times out every time. Looking for a server and I am selecting beat available server when starting the lobby. I have also tried sv_cheats 1 ms_force_dedicated_server 75.102.10.133:27015 Still no luck in a VS lobby I do have souremod installed on this server.

Re: [hlds] L4D Client Update
Quoting gamead...@127001.org: Thanks For that information I will in fact Google it and I started reading about the white list in the steam forum. Search for valve dedicated server first, then try everyone else was already the default behaviour. By giving people the ability to skip the search for valve servers, they have in fact increased the chance of your server having people in it. However, since the last l4d patch, and continuing in the (unannounced) patch tonight, my (Linux) servers have been empty. Since the patch before _that_, typing setmaster has shown an empty list (despite the startup log mentioning 2 master servers), which I needed to workaround by setting them manually in server.cfg.

Re: [hlds] 2003 or 2008
Quoting Blood Letter bw_bloodlet...@hotmail.com: Okay I already own this server with 2008 I agree with you. I run 5 l4d servers and use 1.9 Gigs of my ram. But I dont think I ever used more then 40% of the CPU So I agree that I need more ram. So I am about to cancel this one and order the lower package which is an X2(2 x 2.3 GHz) with 4 gigs I think that would be more value for my money. I have another question snice it seems you guys are in a good mood tonight. How bad is to overload little bit? What I mean is if I have 100 megs of ram left and I start another L4d server using ~ 200 megs (Assume these are all public l4d servers) Is it okay to over load the ram like that? Are you joking? I ran 4 L4D servers on an old dual core athlon, and it never got over 50% CPU usage. L4D does not tax the CPU at all, despite all the hype about the amazingly complex (yeah, right) AI Director. 1000 FPS!!! servers are a joke.

I can still keep them full from the time it starts up until about dying gaming hours (around 4-5 AM CST) The custom tab is a deterrent to generic pubbers, but your regulars will still see you on their favorites tab. I will agree though, pubbers generally won't even touch the custom tab. Maybe if people started actually using the custom tab, though, people would generally shift over to it based on their desire for gameplay. With all the server operators exploiting the internet listing as it is right now, no one will ever use the custom listing because the servers like that are still in the internet list. If no server operators use the custom list, then neither will the players, thus why you see such a lack of use on it. To be honest, I think if more server operators used it and educated the players they play with on the use of it, I think there would be a lot more people using the custom tab. Now, granted, it will never compare to the usage of the internet tab, but all this cheating to get on the internet list isn't going to help the custom list at all.

For instance, on Friday Night, I like to run party mode on my servers, which places them on the custom tab. I can still keep them full from the time it starts up until about dying gaming hours (around 4-5 AM CST) The custom tab is a deterrent to generic pubbers, but your regulars will still see you on their favorites tab. I will agree though, pubbers generally won't even touch the custom tab. Maybe if people started actually using the custom tab, though, people would generally shift over to it based on their desire for gameplay. With all the server operators exploiting the internet listing as it is right now, no one will ever use the custom listing because the servers like that are still in the internet list. If no server operators use the custom list, then neither will the players, thus why you see such a lack of use on it. To be honest, I think if more server operators used it and educated the players they play with on the use of it, I think there would be a lot more people using the custom tab. Now, granted, it will never compare to the usage of the internet tab, but all this cheating to get on the internet list isn't going to help the custom list at all. No one is going to use it if there aren't any good servers there. Just a thought. -Cc2iscooL On Thu, Mar 13, 2008 at 12:41 PM, Timothy L Havener [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I had 3 servers full pretty much 24/7 and since the implementation of the customs tab I have had trouble even getting them populated during peak gaming hours.

The content does not need to move to the 'orangebox' when the binaries for the games move and we hope that this represents some value for server admins since you will not need to download redundant content files into two different directory structures in order to support two different engine versions. Our hope is that this new directory structure will help avoid disruptions to existing dedicated servers for other mods and products when we make significant changes to the Source engine like the ones needed for TF and the other Orange Box games.

[hlds] Windows server 2008
I just want to know if valve or anyone on this list as tried running servers on a windows 2008 install. If so does it work performance wise then 2003 or even 2000? What have you notice are some advantages with 2008 or anything you don't Like.

[hlds] + command line parameter
I am helping test a Very early (alpha @ best) mod The Problem is that it seems to skip any + parameters The cmd line I use is srcds.exe -console -game si2 +map si2_canyon -maxplayers 20 +ip 20x.234.249.xx +port 27015 +fps_max 500 -tickrate 66 So the above command line it will not load a map on start, it will not bind to that Ip address and it will not change the fps value I am assuming it is a problem with the mod because I can run hl2mp instead and all of the command line works. Any suggestions or any thing that I could do to Force it force it to load a map right now I have to type map mapname Thanks Munra ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
