Does anyone have a solution for adding a hidden reserved slot without having to go to a max of 19 visible slots? The cBase and connect extentions from sourcemod don't seem to work on FoF and the engine locks at 20 players. Cheers, Saint K. ___ To u

Funny (or maybe not funny) you should mention that. My VPS got shut-down last-night by my hosting provider because there was "Traffic size:[627 Mbit/sec]". I am not certain if it was an "actual" DDoS attack, or just the fact that there was so much demand for FoF servers. I had 8 FoF servers runn

Hi. Can you encourage the devs to publish their UpToDateCheck URL so that server ops can do automatic updates? I assume this is just something they can set in Steamworks, but I don't know that. For example, TF2's: http://api.steampowered.com/ISteamApps/UpToDateCheck/v1?appid=440&version=1&

Thanks a lot every one. I think we've got plenty of capacity for now. I even see a number of the pay-per-reserved-slot / pay-for-perks guys getting into the act now too! Not sure how long the high-demand will last. But, I am sure it will diminish somewhat over the coming couple of weeks. On S

Yeah, I moved from Wheezy to Jessie (v8 / testing) to get past the GLIBC junk (new requirement with Source SDK 2013). The version of Wheezy is like 2 years old. I think there's a work-around where you can drop a copy of lib from more modern GLIBC (same distro & arch) into the /bin folder and it w
