COD4 server with more than 32 slots

[lpgservers]

I've got a customer who has several COD4 servers with me but wants another with 40 slots for a zombie mod. 20 bots and 20 players. I've tried setting the server up with +set ui_maxclients 40 and +set sv_maxclients 40 and it doesn't work whether in the command line, the server.cfg, nor both. It displays on startup that 40 isn't a valid dvar and reverts back to 32 slots. There is no dvar set in any of the configs for that. This is for version/patch 1.7 or the latest release. Can anyone share some insight into this?

Works with us:

 

+set fs_savepath ##### +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip ##### +set net_port 28960 +set sv_maxclients 34 +exec server.cfg +set rcon_password ##### +map_rotate +set ui_maxclients 34

 

we put it on the end.

No such luck, nothing any different.

Hey Andy, Pretty sure to get over 32 it has to be running out of the mod folder if I remember right. Cant remember the name of it

Yep, running the reignoftheundead mod and exec'ing the server cfg from there as well. Still no luck.

This is working for us no issues, no mod needed.

 

+set fs_savepath %userfilespath% +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip %serverip% +set net_port %serverport% +set ui_maxclients %slots% +set sv_maxclients %slots% +set sv_punkbuster "1" +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

Interesting, I had the same exact commandline minus the +set ui_maxclients %slots% and all I was doing was using the command line override to put the exact command line you posted above with the variables set and it wouldn't work. However, I then went and changed the default command line to add the ui_maxclients and now it works.

 

Thanks a million all and I'm still dumbfounded why the override for the individual server wouldn't run it but now it will if it is set from default.

 

Both commandlines now output identical as well.

We just added it as additional argument and working
