L4D server

[katzumii]

I gave up on css server and started a l4d server, it installed right and everything, i got this under properties on ''Run SRCDS''
''C:\SRCDS\l4d\srcds.exe -console -autoupdate -game left4dead -port 27015 +map l4d_hospital01_apartment -tickrate 66''

and my server.cfg is :
''// Rcon Cvars
rcon_password “*****” //Set’s remote control password

// Server Cvars
hostname " L4D SWE's officella test server " // Server Name
mp_disable_autokick 1 //Prevents a userid from being auto-kicked
sv_allow_wait_command 0 //Allow or disallow the wait command on clients connected to this server.
sv_clearhinthistory 0 //Clear memory of server side hints displayed to the player.
sv_consistency 1 //Whether the server enforces file consistency for critical files
sv_contact “****” //Contact email for server sysop
sv_cheats 0
sv_pausable 0 //Server not pausable

// Lan or internet play, Server region cvars
sv_lan 0 //Server is a lan server ( no heartbeat, no authentication, no non-class C addresses )
sv_region 3 // Region Codes: 0 - US East coast, 1 - US West coast, 2 - South America, 3 - Europe, 4 - Asia, 5 - Australia, 6 - Middle East, 7 - Africa, 255 - world

// Server Logging
sv_log_onefile 1 //Log server information to only one file.
sv_logbans 1 //Log server bans in the server logs.
sv_logecho 0 //Echo log information to the console.
sv_logfile 1 //Log server information in the log file.
sv_logflush 0 //Flush the log file to disk on each write (slow).
sv_logsdir “logs” //Folder in the game directory where server logs will be stored.

//Server Rates
sv_maxcmdrate 100 //(If sv_mincmdrate is > 0), this sets the maximum value for cl_cmdrate.

//Fix to get your server onto the master lists
setmaster add 213.64.180.252:27015
setmaster add 192.168.0.146:27015
sv_steamgroup //this is your group’s steam group id.. allows members to join from main menu add

//sv_steamgroup_exclusive 0 //to make it exclusive and private
z_difficulty “expert” “//this is the difficulty setting''

and when i try to connect/my friends try to connect it says ''failed after 10 retries in console. whats wrong?

Did you do portforwarding?

nope i did not, i didnt understand a **** of that guide, isnt there anyway for u to make a quick explain or sumthing?

[realchamp]

Login to your router and portforward these ports. (Open them, allow trafic to pass through)

Code:

UDP 1200
UDP 27000-27015
UDP 27020
TCP 27015
TCP 27030-27039

ok, just a question, can still not get onto my routers ''website'' bcs of password, i find password on d-links website? if so, where?

and: what is the normal fps of a server, cuz when i started it i only got like 25, and i got a computer with 4 processors on 2,15 ghz, 4 gigabyte ram, and 54mb/s internet.

[realchamp]

Normal FPS is about 230-250FPS (Not sure)
This is for Counter-Strike: Source

Well, L4D is only like 25-30FPS. (Not sure either, but very close).


If you don't know your password, is going to be a problem. I don't know if D-Link can give it to you. But the best would be to contact them.

should i call them, write to them, and my friend said for him the username and password was admin and 1234

[realchamp]

Try that username there and password.. I just have "admin" as username and "admin" as password when I got my router.


Well, if you aren't in the same state as their support numbers are from, DON'T call them. Otherwise write to them, tell them your problem.

i looked at their website and support, and it said ''
The factory settings so has our broadband routers, the following login information.

Username: admin

Password: blank (ie empty)'' (in swedish, i translated it)

[realchamp]

Hmm, but does that work? And what serial number is your router? I could find a guide for you on http://www.portforward.com

is my serial number on the router? then i will check

[realchamp]

Nah, it might be in the top of the CPanel as a logo .

you need to remove the sv_cheats 0 command from the server cofiguration file, and remove it from the servers.exe shortcut when I had that on my config the server would not broadcast its heartbeat

i do not have sv_cheats 0 in my command line.
