Game server configs

Could NFO provide there server.cfg for Left 4 Dead 2? i can never find a really good one some of them are all off shady sites too >.<

Here's a good starting point:

Code: Select all

// Edit this to your liking.

// Name Of Server
hostname "NFOservers.com - New server"

// l4d specific; some of these may also need to be in autoexec.cfg so they are set before the first map is loaded.
// allow direct connections
sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0
// set the difficulty of the current game
z_difficulty normal
// set this to restrict the lobby search to only those clients specifying a key
//sv_search_key ""
// if this is set, only members of Steam group will be able to join the server when it's empty, public people will be able to join the server only if it has players.
sv_steamgroup_exclusive 0
// specify a group to attach this server to (it will show at the bottom of the client)
sv_steamgroup ""

When searching for a dedicated server from lobby, restrict search to only dedicated servers having the same sv_search_key.

// General HL Cvars (based on other Source engines; many don't work in l4d yet)
sv_contact "your@email.address"
decalfrequency 60
mp_decals 100
mp_falldamage 1
sv_cheats 0
sv_maxrate 0
sv_minrate 30000
sv_timeout 120
sv_allowupload 1
sv_allowdownload 1

// Rcon Stuff
rcon_password "qicbvupitzmivskdzvpy"

// Make sure the right people are banned
exec banned_user.cfg
exec banned.cfg
writeid

//files
mapcyclefile mapcycle.txt

heartbeat

// important settings inserted by NFo
sv_stats 0
fps_max 0

sv_parallel_packentities 0
sv_parallel_sendsnapshot 0

net_splitpacket_maxrate 30000

Also make sure that you don't manually set an allowance for the sv_maxcmdrate to be 100 or above, and that your L4D2 server is locked to a CPU core.
