I open my run.bat file and the cmd is just stuck on "L:\tf2>L:\tf2\srcds.exe -console -game tf +sv_pure 1 +map ctf_2fort +maxplayers 24"

It won't do anything beside that.

I have a server.cfg but still. my ports are set.

How are you running the script?

SRCDS on Windows launches a new console window, so you can't access it through the same command prompt / console it was launched in.

If it's even possible to access its console window without a graphical session is outside the scope of my knowledge.

All I know is that I just used SteamCMD for the "app 232250" right?
Then I just set up the server.cfg
Set up the run.bat, and that's it.
This for a reference? https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/W...dicated_server

Thought you were running something slightly more exotic like an SSH session or something on Windows 10. Apologies for the confusion.

Instructions seem right to me. What's the exact contents of run.bat?
For reference, mine contains the following:

start srcds.exe -game tf +map koth_nucleus +maxplayers 24 -autoupdate -console +port 27016 +tv_enable 1 +tv_delay 0 +tv_transmitall 1

From what I remember hearing, -console is necessary to show something more than a black screen. Might want to give that a shot.

Yeah, I have "-console"
This is what I use though

L:\tf2\srcds.exe -console -game tf +sv_pure 1 +map ctf_2fort +maxplayers 24 -port 27015


Using the command line you gave me just instantly closes the CMD as it opens
EDIT: I added "L:\tf2\srcds.exe" (Directory) and it opened fine, but still stuck and shows me nothing.

I can't type anything inside the CMD as if it's processing something, I waited 5 minutes and nothing happened.

srcds.exe should be somewhere in your running processes. There might be more of them running, since the start in my script starts them in another window.

Otherwise, no clue. System information?

Haha, now that's funny;

All this time it was my Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
I had a notification on whether to trust an app or block it, (and I choose neither, I just left it there because of some bug in the software that didn't let me choose any), and it was about to ask me about the SRCDS after the current notification I had, you know what I mean?


The request to allow SRCDS was QUEUED, and while it was queued, I didn't even do anything on FIRST notification, that was BEFORE the SRCDS one.


I restarted my computer, and I tried again, allowed it, and now it's working! Thanks!

Now another problem has come up....

My server does not appear in the "Internet" tab, but only "LAN"
I have sv_lan 0
and it says "Couldn't allocate any server IP Port"


The server works fine if it's without the "-ip" in the server.bat file I have to run the server,

but if I add my IP it does that problem, I want people to join me, not create a server so I could play alone ;~; ..


How do I fix that?
I set my port to 27015... even in the cfg too, ("-port 27015")...

So now I've used my LOCAL ip in the cfg, 192.168.1.x ( < this one ) and it worked
but it still doesn't show up on the server list...



*sigh*, *a really long sigh*, so NOW, I REMOVED the local ip from start.bat, and again, it works just fine, but no one except for ME can't connect... I have my ports all forwarded as both UDP and TCP (27015) (27005) (27016)
I still don't know what the hell is wrong with this.


I checked with http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamAp...015&format=xml
It read it successfully, it responded with "true" there were no errors, yet still no one can join me nor does it appear on the master server list.

This is how it looks like:
I don't know if it matters but I did app_update 232250, and not 440, like in the picture that it showed that 440 is the correct ID, not sure that's the problem. don't think so at least.
My firewall is letting it pass, and it's all good, but why isn't still showing up?
