Sorry no. Every time I try to download a TF install it fails to bring down srcds.exe (the file that is needed to start the server) and copying srcds.exe from another server install doesn't work for some strange reason.

I have even tried it on my own server and it still failed to bring down the correct file.

i have a plan to address it. I'm going to setup the TF as an HL2MP server and then download the TF addon to see if that works. Will take a couple of days until I have time to do this but I'm hoping it will fix the problem (wish me luck) :)

Would this trouble a game of TF2 on the LAN?
Hope it works Mike, fingers crossed.

yay :woot2: my plan worked.

have a TF2 server peeps :)

PS although I'm sure the fact Valve released a new version of hldsupdate last night (which actually works) had nothing to do with my success :sideways:

There's no communications failure, I left it down deliberately to see if anyone noticed.  The fact it was down for over a week before someone did, tells it's own story. :byebye:

There's no point having a server for a game that only attracted a couple of dMw members on a Wednesday :sad:

Good point..
maybe one last push? need about 8 people on the server for the public to join


or have a 24/7 server with a common map for a month or something?? Most people join the 24/7 servers they mostly always full in prime time.

I liked TF2 and tried to stir it up (bisto post)
But 3 or 4 players isn't any good need 8+ really.
Still happy to play.

Ah, server is gone, that explains "Not Responding". I think running the server on 1 or 2 maps 24/7 sounds like a good idea, 2fort and dustbowl are the most popular. Also, if there are <6 people on the server, all go scout and dm until more people join ^_^. Works for me.
