L4D2 Server

Dreadhead · 18 Nov 2009 at 17:53

just tried port 27019, forwarded ports too. No luck, still get that socket bind error.

edit: nevermind..

192.168 is your local IP though.

Dreadhead · 18 Nov 2009 at 18:23

what is the difference between the use of + or - in the command line?

Dreadhead · 18 Nov 2009 at 19:04

the bind error dissapears if i put the external IP address into the command line as: +hostip as opposed to +ip.

Either way I still cannot connect.

Gonna give up on it for tonight.. try again on a fresh head tomorrow. If anyone has any thoughts please post.

Thanks again for all the replies this evening.

Just bought a gameservers.com l4d2 for me and some m8's, whats the OcUK group id so I can make it a steam group server, thats if you guys don't mind having it as a group server.

If you're hosting your own game with srcds, IIRC, you connect to your local IP and your friends connect to your external IP. That's how I understood it was with CS:S anyway.

We can tell you but we'd have to kill you.

Its true. A good friend of mine listed his personal server as an ocuk group server. Two days later he was found in the canal. FrenchTart and LinktoInsanity butchered him

... problem is that I cant proove it.
