If you are running SM, make sure nextmap.smx is disabled or you'll have the problem you described. Other than that, my servers work perfectly with SM/MM (no "fun" mods, just server management plugins). Richard Eid wrote: > The issue you experience where you can be playing a co-op map, then afte

The issue you experience where you can be playing a co-op map, then after the first one finishes, you're switched to a Versus map...I noticed the same thing on my server when I installed Metamod. I think the real message to go out here is for everyone to remove Metamod. I know this will eliminate

Seriously, is there a way to turn off auto-team balancing? Just played a close game, and the 4th round the server decides to swap teams around, this is really annoying. I can't find any cvar's to disable it. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preference

Yes, the system to connect on its own server is not perfect and not simple. It does not encourage people to rent a server for themselves or their team because of the difficulty to use (over the console disappears when you click on a menu). Patrick Shelley a écrit : > -- > But if you connect

On a similar note, I still don't get why you can't use sv_search_key to get to a passworded server from the lobby.  If you want truly private server but not exclusive to a Steam group, you need a password.  But if you connect to a passworded server you have to do it directly, so you lose the abi

Interesting, i didnt know about this tip with sv_cheats and im sure many of others dont know about it either. Thanks. About the lobby thing, yeah, best way would be what you just said that server can be picked and then reserved. Would work the best but im assuming they want to keep the game 1:1

Do you have sv_steamgroup_exclusive set to 1? Setting that to one nulls out the key (at least it did prior to the last update, haven't tried it since). I use sv_search_key and sv_steamgroup, but I leave sv_steamgroup_exclusive set to 0. On Sat, Dec 6, 2008 at 12:27 PM, AnAkIn . <[EMAIL PROTECT
