Re: [EXTENSION] Left 4 Downtown (0.2.0) - now with unlocked player slots
 

hello, thanks for great plugin(extention?).

i have problem with this plugin.
when i set l4d_maxplayers -1, no one can join to server.
and server log was

can u fix it?

and one more thing.
im running 7 server.
those server loading server.cfg and server_pub#.cfg(#=server number) by this start up parameter.

load server.cfg automatically even i don't write it on start up parameter.
but i don't know why, when i write l4d_maxplayers to server_pub#.cfg, that setting fix "-1" anyway.
(even i set 8 or someother values)
if i write it to server.cfg, working well...
can u fic this one too?

thanks in advance. :)

0.2.2 released

• l4d_maxplayers is now restricted to <= +-maxplayers set from command line.
• Fixed a bug where l4d_maxplayers -1 and sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0 meant that nobody could connect to the server.

Re: [EXTENSION] Left 4 Downtown (0.2.2) - now with unlocked player slots
 

Just so i get this right: It does not allow more than 8 Players when joined by Lobby?

Can anything be done to circumvent that?


We tried this on my windows server yesterday, in conjunction with Super Versus, but no people above the 8 from Lobby could join (Survivorbots were there, game showed correct number of slots). Those trying to join above 8 would get eerie shit like "Http 1.1 server error", some also simply "server is full"



EDIT:

Had a second game today, without Lobby. We had 14 Players (i think), so it worked ;)

Tons of these in console, it appears the server rejects them (this was a no-lobby-game)


EDIT: After some googling around, this was probably caused by sv_pure 0, which should rather be 1

Also, an scrds.exe crash.

I have a perfectly working 8v8 versus server, lag free ... now I wish you could make it a 12v12, why is there a 18 player limit and is there any way to get it up?

Re: [EXTENSION] Left 4 Downtown (0.2.2) - now with unlocked player slots
 

18 player limit is the maxclients limit (GetMaxClients() function). I'll take a look at patching the maxclients limit, but I have no guarantee that it's not hardcoded in a few spots, in which case it wouldn't do anything useful when I patched the limit.

Can anything be done about the Lobby 8 Player lock, i think you mentioned "ClearLobbyReservation" somewhere

I've installed your extension on my core Hunter Games servers, now that I've fixed HG with version 1.0.3. The extension installs fine, shows up with a "sm exts list" command, and I can successfully set the "l4d_maxplayers" var to 14. When I do "status", it says there are 8/14 human players. From the L4D menu, when viewing a friends game, it says the game is full, but when viewing the server directly it says 8/14. Any attempt to join the game either tells me the game is full, or I just get a session lost error.

I tried to connect the following ways.

+From the L4D menu where it shows games friends are playing
+Connect directly from console with a "connect [ip]" command
+Right click on a friends name in steam and go to "join game"
+open server browser, add IP in favorites, and join from there.

None of them work. I can't get more than 8 people in a game.

If you have the newer version, 0.2.2, it wont work if you set "l4d_maxplayers" to 14 in your server.cfg. You will have to do it in your command line (you don't have to do that with the older version)
