[hlds] L4D LAN Game does not respond to Broadcast Query

[Morgan Humes]

I am attempting to get a dedicated server for Left 4 Dead running on our LAN
and we simply cannot get it to work.  I have diffed the cvarlist of a listen
server (which responds) and our dedicated server and changed the settings
for any and all differences.  This simply did not change the results of
browsing for those games.

Has anyone seen this problem at all?  Telling people to just
'openserverbrowser' is incredibly simpler than telling them to 'connect
10.x.x.x'.

On a similar topic, why doesn't L4D support LAN Party gaming out of the
box?  At our events (we host approximately 150 person lans) we see a huge
amount of usage of Valve games.  The Lobby system is amazing for playing
with friends or new groups of people, but taking advantage of 100+ people at
a LAN Party apparently is outside the scope of L4D?  Seriously?

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks,

Morgan

I couldn't agree more.
