[hlds_linux] Allowing spectators
What's the secret cvar formula for allowing spectators in a coop game that is full? I've tried changing sv_visiblemaxplayers to 5 but still cannot join a server that has 4 people in it.

Re: [hlds_linux] sv_region and ports
That's a crazy number of ports to have open for a Source dedicated server. These are the ports I have open through my firewall, and my server works just fine: TCP 27015-27022 (rcon ports of the forks) UDP 1200 (Steam friends service) UDP 27000-27022 (Steam ports and listen ports of the forks) Also, I've allowed incoming traffic for ICMP types 8 (echo-request), 0 (echo-reply), 3 (destination-unreachable), and 11 (time-exceeded). Basically, you just need to have the TCP rcon ports open, UDP 1200, and UDP 27000 through the highest listen port you are using (given it is in the standard range). - Dave Russell Jones wrote: > If you guys may recall I had a big problem with the servers being listed > and people joining.

Hi, you can try to lauch the server with "+exec fork##.cfg Then add to everey fork##.cfg the ip ip-address. But I didn't think, that this trick works.

[hlds_linux] sv_region and ports
If you guys may recall I had a big problem with the servers being listed and people joining. In addition, they would show "Disconnected from master servers" or w/e it was in console after sitting there for a while. I figured it out. It actually was my firewall. Even though I mentioned that I was super sure the firewall wasnt the problem, it turned it was. I had the normal ports 27015, 27016, and whatever else was listed on most websites were needed to be open, in addition to 40,000 to 65,000 open, and apparently that wasn't enough. I went back and opened 1025-65535, and now they are happy and people playing. I wish Valve would release exactly what ports are used for *everything*, that way we can be sure the correct ports are open. So if you anyone is still having problems with nobody joining, and you have already commented out sv_region, try turning your firewall completely off for a day or two and see if that helps. If it does, then you know it's your firewall. Jonah Hirsch wrote: > I've set mine back and it works fine. I can use search keys and they > show up in the community list.

[hlds_linux] Custom particle effects on TF2 maps
As it seems that some custom particle effects in some maps break the actual smoke, fire etc effects in-game in the next map after that and stay broken untill game is rebooted, and i seriously can't get a clear answer, i have to ask here. The custom map creators say it's Valves job to fix the issues that are appearing with custom particle effects so is it or have the maps creators implemented custom particle effects wrong? Maps that break players on screen fire,smoke and so on effects from normal to square'ish are atleast: - cp_glacier_rc - ctf_vector_b1 - cp_reelfoot_b1 - many more which i cant now remember So how is it? Vector was very liked and reelfoot seemed interesting but we cant use the maps in their current condition. -ics ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
