Hey,
I'm new to this great ext and not sure if I did something wrong.

I'm running L4D2, SM 1.3-dev & metamod 1.8-dev with downtown 0.3.2.0 linux.
Everything seem to load fine but on the groups server I can see my server only with 0/8 while my maxplayers and l4d_maxplayers are both set to 16. (On the group servers, I can see other servers of L4D2 having the real count like 0/16.. etc)

I'm not sure if I did something wrong and how can I fix it and allowing people join from the group servers having more than +8 players inside.

Some logs:

game server's main CFG:

exec server-global.cfg

hostname "8vs8 - test"

l4d_maxplayers 16
sv_visiblemaxplayers -1

exec l4d_superversus.cfg

I've tried and read all over without any luck.
Is there something I miss about setting the real count of maxplayers in steamgroup servers like other public servers are doing?

Regards,
Delz.

I'm pleased to say that for our testing purposes we now have a release candidate of the L4D2 version for both the Linux and Windows versions, which means release should be imminent after a few more rounds of live testing.

[Delusionz]

Ok, little update.
L4DToolZ made it possible with their version for l4d2 linux. sv_maxplayers works like a charm so if anyone comes across something like that..

Did you get scoring swapping to work? Because although i (hopefully) used the right function offset, it never has effect ingame

But a fully functional windows version would be oh-so-great

Unfortunately due to my timeframe issues I had to cut all the scoring natives. I didn't think anyone was using them except my own l4dscores plugin (which I will not be porting to L4D2, though I may split it the team management into its own plugin).

If you are actually interested in using the scoring and are willing to test Windows correctness I would be more than happy to try throwing a few signatures at it.

Since you are not porting your Scores plugin, can you do one "Unscramble"plugin for l4d2?

All right, get in touch with me on IRC or on Steam friends and we'll talk more about this offline.

What do you mean? Does L4D2 still scramble like L4D did? Or are you referring to when people get stuck as spectator in team versus/team scavenge?

I have a 6x6 server, with 1 slot to spec, and this spec if he load the map before someone that is playing, he will take the slot in the team, get it?I'm using your score plugin, that make the spec stay spectator, he will have to press M to join a team, is not automatic. I hope you can understand my poor english ;P

And the score in the server is buging, the score of the first campaing is staying in the others. I now that in this version for linux still have bugs, and this one is listed, but no one know how to fix it?

sooo... do we have an L4D2 Windows version yet?
