if you don't want to make it worst, don't make any posts about visual anymore, this is after all a l4dtoolz forum and here on, peace out.

What is the "sv_maxplayers init error"?

init error means that the sv_maxplayer signature is outdated, possibly because you're not using the latest gamedata file.

lovely plugin. and a lot of time spend into this i see.

Been working with this plugin to get a 32 player server to work without problems.

so far i've been able to get 32 bots on 1 team.

and managed to get sv_maxplayers bumped up to 64 players.
only problem i'm getting at the moment is that the maxplayers is set to max 32 players
which i'm not able to get higher due to the .so file
a max of maxplayers has been set to 32. and cant get overwriten by ConvarBounds.
And due to this. its not possible to spawn infected as they require a slot as fakeclient

But i guess without the .cpp or .h files i wont be able to change this.
or would someone have a great idea for this?

Btw thanks again for this great plugin. if i manage to get this working i will update it here.


believe its this code not allowing me to set it higher
engine->ServerCommand("maxplayers 32\n");

You won't be allowed to connect to a server that has maxplayers set to 64 (or >32, atleast that was my conclution after trying)

Edit the .so file with a simple hexeditor. search for text maxplayers, edit 32 to what you want and save. then you'll probably see what I mean.

[YoChris]

yes i know ;) somewhere in the l4dtoolz the maxplayers is set to 32. and you cant change it with Convarbound.
was able to set it to 64 players and it will show 32/64. but then no infected can spawn if 32 survivors are there

so iam trying to find out if we can get the maxplayers in l4dtoolz set higher somehow.

also like i said, i was able to set sv_maxplayers to 64. but as l4dtoolz uses "maxplayers" i cant change it. as i get an message like " cant change this while server is running" and if i change the cvar before server start it wont change it higher then 32.

atleast 32 players can join the server without problems

[Visual77]

Like I said above, you can change maxplayers 32 that is hardcoded in l4dtoolz_mm_i486.so to lets say 40, by using a hexeditor, but it's pretty much useless because once you do, you won't be able to connect to your server for some weird reason.

I can't help you out more on this - maybe someone else can. Maybe you should write ivailosp a PM?

[YoChris]

ah yes, i see what you mean.

i get this message:

Bad maxclients (64) from server.


guess client sided it looks if maxclients isn't higher then 32?

will do some more testing and see if i can change some stuff on client side.

was able to spawn bots on both sides. showing my server 64/64 now hehe. just cant connect myself

[asherkin]

Only the CS:S build is designed to handle 64 players, everything else has a hard limit of 32.

[YoChris]

had to alter the engine.dll files to make it work. but that will require people to download it and need to run the server VAC -nosecure.

it works then. but this isn't an option.

guess will run max on 32 then like you say.
