Well, this is a list that VALVE hosts, so it really only makes sense that updates to Valve games would be announced. Killing Floor is the only exception, since Tripwire feels that they should announce their updates here. Jonah Hirsch --- On Wed, Dec 2, 2009 at 12:44 AM, Xavie

By the looks of it, they are client-side updates. Not really something that needs to be announced on a hlds_srcds list. There is actually a proper announce list if that's what you guys want. Saint K. wrote: > Why o why is this not being announced anymore > > -Original Message- >

Probably the same reason they don't announce Killing Floor updates or similar games. I wish there was some consistency, but then again, that would make life too easy. If only we lived in a perfect world. Xavier ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list

True, but sv_steamgroup_exclusive should make it invisible to public lobbies unless Steam group members are already on the server. I'm running two L4D2 Steam group servers with sv_steamgroup_exclusive = 1 and no search key set, and I do not get any public players on these servers, while my fou

If you dont want public people joining, then give your server a search_key. That'll make it available only to lobbies that have that search key set. On Tue, Dec 1, 2009 at 1:38 PM, Matt Ford wrote: > So my, as I see it, very simple server.cfg fails utterly to do what I > want it to. > > I can't

Do you realy need chrt on l4d and l4d2? In my opinion no. Unlike the other source games it is limited to tick 30 and fps max. You can not change this values. So where is the point using chrt? I use it only for games like tf2 dods css and never had the problem you described. Gary Stanley schrieb
