"rcon sb_add" does respawn the survivors but only if I fully kick a bot off my server leaving 3 or less survivors in the game. However it stops letting me spawn the survivors once I hit 3 bots. Thanks in advance for any ideas you guys may have. (Edit: it appears that my server isn't able to execute my server.cfg file so I'm assuming I don't have it located in the right place.) Here's what my ds console says when I connect to the server: Connection to Steam servers successful.

you need to set
sv_removehumanlimit 1
sv_unlockgamemode 1
sv_unlock_sb_add 1
sv_force_unreserved 1

also for survivor_limit you need plugin that set SetConVarBounds(FindConVar("survivor_limit") , ConVarBound_Upper, true, 14.0);

meta list give you some error - where did you extract the zip with my plugin

Is it possible to take advantage of the extra slots without super versus?

yes, but you need small sourcemod plugin to do so, you need to set ConVarBound_Upper for survivor_limit and z_max_player_zombies

I tried kicking a Survivor Bot, then using sb_add both from local and rcon command console. Didnt do anything

Well after getting some sleep I backtracked and reinstalled your plugin. As you figured, I had extracted it incorrectly.

I have now placed the "l4dtoolz" folder into \addons & placed the vdf file into \addons\metamod so it is now working like a charm.

Now the last problem I am having is really starting to drive me crazy. No matter how many times I've tried, I just can't get my dedicated server to execute my server.cfg file. It refuses to recognize the configuration files existence.

Is there a configuration file somewhere that I can specify the directory path to my server.cfg file so that the server can actually execute it?

Sorry about making you guys have to explain so much, this is my first time trying to run a dedicated server for a Source game so I didn't have prior experience with setup to make it easier.

[ivailosp]

where did you put server.cfg

[SeizureMonkey]

I put it in \steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\cfg

I have no idea why it's not detected.

I also tried \steamapps\common\left 4 dead\left4dead\cfg\sourcemod but it had no effect either.

[ColdnessCalms]

You can use the sourcemod.cfg in your /cfg/sourcemod folder instead of server.cfg

Also, I'm sure you know better than this, but when you save a cfg file you have to save it as 'all files' so that it doesnt change to the default .txt format.

I'm using L4DToolZ+Realfake clients and it works fine.
