I can't see the L4D servers on HLSW although I can connect to them.
I'm currently looking for the reason.

And there's me thinking 'Good start Whitey' :D
They're timing out for me too.
It's only happened tonight AFAIAA.
L4D servers don't need to be updated do they? Just a thought.
EDIT: Obviously not 'cos I can see people on it.
They're timing out in HLSW as well as my Vista sidebar.
As far as I can tell they look offline

Did HLSW have trouble logging in? Mine timed out several times.
It's not something I've broken!! :narnar:
This problem is being reported by lots of people after the last update and it mainly seems to happen when you have sv_password set. Good old Valve...
I'm assuming that Benny, KKND and Kreg are playing on our server.
When I look at Benny in steam friends and click on "view game info", it says server not responding.

Me too. Valve broke their own code ... shock horror. :sideways:
Indeed.
Back to the direct connection methods.
Incidentally BB advised I subscribe to the HLDS mailing list, got this tonight;
QuoteLeft 4 Dead has been updated. This is not required, but certainly recommended. Please run hldsupdatetool to receive it. The specific changes include:
- Fixed sv_search_key appearing in server browser
- Fixed issue where changing the sv_search_key did not update the master correctly
- Fixed master server issue with Linux fork mode that affected availability of Valve dedicated servers
- Tank melee attack can now hit multiple Survivors in one swing
Have to say it's very disappointing.
I joined the server and found peeps playing but it was pure pot luck.
If anyone finds a way of monitoring the servers please can they let us know.
Thx
It looks like there might have been a server-side update too?
Does any one concur with this hypothesis?
Is there an nice and easy server update process?:g:
Yup......see my post....
Where's our Server Monkey Guide?
Whitey....the stage is yours :)
It's not something I can do from work at the moment but I'll do the update when I get home, unless OB gets there first. :)

All done. I've updated the servers and they now show in HLSW. :)
Brilliant !!

Right, back out that change. I want Whitey to do it.
(Cheers Oldone)

He delegated it to me (what a quick learner) :D
Thanks OB, glad that sorted it! :)
