You have to put a VS map in the cmdline and cycle to get 8 slots.

oh right certain maps cetain amoutn of slots i dont even have this game

[[MyIS]Dan]

From what we have found, -maxplayers has no effect we had it set to 4 on one server, changed it to a VS map via rcon and it went to 8 slot, TC Admin seen the change tho and shut the server off.

[alphamart]

yea can it go up tto 12 as i have read it does slot sizes are 4 8 12 :S

and there ya have it. Always good to read every post in a thread since it usually has the answer.

If you want to limit to co-op mode only, then the following command on the startup line should achieve the desired effect:

 

+director_no_human_zombies 1

 

This prevents people from becoming zombies (in versus mode) and hence versus mode is not available at all on the server. Useful if you are selling 4 player servers or 8 player servers, as the latter does use more resources.

We don't have a VS map in the command line and it still changes to 8 players.

Did you try +director_no_human_zombies 1 ? That forces the server into only coop mode (4 players) for me.

[[MyIS]Dan]

TY for heads up, will try that, did not see your post with it being on second page.

[maddanny]

Btw, what about tickrate ? As it's running valve server, can we select the tickrate like css servers ?

[KingJ]

I haven't tried but I don't think it's possible. Even so, the game runs without issue so I don't think it's something that needs to be changed.

[xpservers]

I see some companies selling 12 slots ? Im guessing those 4 slots are for spec mode only ? is spec mode only available via VS mode ? Just wondering what cvar or cmd command will enable or disable spec mode ? If I just add -maxplayers 12 compared to -maxplayers 8 can I achieve this result ?

 

thanks

there is only 4 player campaign and 8 player co-op

 

its verry hard to put server is versus mode only i've tried heaps of things so far but nothing helps

 

even iff you alter the maplist and mapcycle nothing changes cause the player who gets in 1st can do call vote and is the lobby boss

so they can change it back to campaign ot change gametype whenever they like

 

only thing you can do is put the cmd line in for a like l4d_vs_farm01_hilltop

when the server starts it always starts in versus

and vica versa

I have a issue where it is one time playing co-op on example l4d_hospital04_interior well after reaching the safe house it loads the next level as a Vs mode an you can't continue to the next level. ?? Beat my brains out. So i edited the maplist, gameinfo, missioncycle & mapcycle text files as well as the maps that have Vs by deleting the extra " _vs " an edited the CMD ( removed the vs ) Also edited the map lint in the configuration file. Then i was able to play the whole game as co-op mode with others, However goldrush you are right if there in the lobby an the leader changes it to Vs mode well then it will not load may just crash....

Humm i haven't tried that my self im going to do that and see what happens. Ill be back with an answer. I guess to my self and to some of your post but if im right by doing this you can give the option of selling co-op and Vs mode servers for left 4 dead??? Be back in 20.

 

Ok i didst get a chance to see what would happen but however i was playing airport_greenhouse an made it to the safe room then it loaded hospital_apartments???

It should have been airport_offices. any idea whats going on here?

what i think is that it gets the maps of valve or something

i just made 2 servers and when put 1 in line as campaign and one versus

the one i named versus is always full and campaign stays empty all the time and i didnt alterd the configs or maplist in any way

[cobra]

Well the client could just install mmsource-1.7.0 and a snapshot sourcemod-1.2.0-hg2453 that's the only! versions that will work correctly. then just add the plugin L4D Director Enforcer found here http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=81088

So doing this it would keep the server at 8 slots?

bad typing hehe

[KingJ]

It's very difficult to actually keep it at 4 players, so we just decided to offer 8 player servers for just a bit more than a 4 player one. It seems most GSPs have gone this route.

Thanks for the update
