MaTrIX 0 #1 Posted January 14, 2008 How is it that some servers are able to run 33 players. I know they only really run 32 and use 1 for a res slot. Are you able to make a .dll that can allow allow a 33 player server to run? When I set my server to 33 players now it just kicks me out with a bogus slot 33 error. Thank you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are primarily used to be on top of the server list. As such I will not make a public plugin or file with such functionality. I know how it's done and I could do it. But I won't do it on my servers and I wont make a plugin for others. Someone else will have to do that. 32 player server is one thing, tricking people is another.

So they are not 33 player servers with 1 reserve slot? No way to get you to make a .dll so that I could run the server 32 +1 reserve slot. Ok I understand. It would be nice to not have to give up a slot in order to have a reserve slot. Any place you can point me so that I can read up on how to do this? Any info you can give me would be much appreciated. Thank you for all your work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mana 3,867 #4 Posted January 14, 2008 If there were real 33 player servers I would be running those. Because I too can't have reserved slots thanks to the server being always full and me not wanting to lose a slot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here: hostname: UKCS:TF2#1 - Mega Game Server | Fast Respawn - www.ukcs.netversion : 1.0.1.7/14 3362 secure udp/ip : 213.228.232.173:27030 map : cp_castle3 at: 0 x, 0 y, 0 z players : 30 (32 max) 32 as I said: It's a trick. There are no 33 slot servers. Next time check the console to see the real maxlimits of a server. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camail 1 #11 Posted October 16, 2008 At some point there is a 17v16 game when it gets to a certain time of popularity, care to explain? ( I used this thread because I didn't want to waste space. Not technically a necro if its still on page 1!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not technically a necro if its still on page 1!) It's possible now. We're doing it on Goldrush #2. There is an extra slot for SourceTV. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
