We are now running an 8 player left for dead server but there is still a bug. Once the last player leaves the server it seems to jump back to 4 player server.

If you change a map it will go to 8 player again - remember to make it a VS map.

I use HLSW to change but you can do it through RCON e.g.:

rcon changelevel l4d_vs_farm01_hilltop

I've added

rcon changelevel l4d_vs_farm01_hilltop

to a file and called it 8player.cfg.

Store it in your L4D config folder and then all you need to do is to bring up console and type "exec 8player" to sort the server

If you want a bit of variety you could create two files (one to restart farm and one for the hospital.)

Thanks BB. Does this mean there's only two versus maps :blink:

No, there are 10 maps, 5 in each mission.

I'm guessing (hoping) they will release VS versions of the other maps soon

Ahh. I see now. I've just fired up HLSW to look at the map selection.

Forgive my ignorance ... when you are the first to join the server you spawn as one of the infected. Does the next person spawn as a survivor and so on until all eight slots are filled?

I believe so but not 100% sure - it seemed to do that last night.

If you need to force a round start (ie everyone on the same team and map wont start do one of the following:

If players are on the infected team:

sv_cheats 1; director_no_human_zombies 0; sb_all_bot_team 1; director_force_versus_start 1; sv_cheats 0




If players are on the survivor team:

sv_cheats 1; director_no_human_zombies 1; sb_all_bot_team 1; director_force_versus_start 1; sv_cheats 0
