How to have server show up on client list
How do I configure the Dedicated server so it will show up on the clients "Server list" when they select MultiPlayer ?
I saw in one post to copy the following to the parts/core folder (It did not help) steam.dll steamclient.dll tier0_s.dll (Also copied the tier0_s64.dll) vstdlib_s.dll (Also copied the vstdlib_s64.dll) I am starting the server with "launcher.exe -server" I still get the "Failed to load steam ServiceServiceStart: failed to start" message in the console. From here I can load a mission and connect to the server by direct IP, but I would like the server to show up on the client list. Any Ideas ? I running this on a Win 2008 Server x64 with plenty of Memory. RAF238thWildWillie |

~S,
Do you get that error on start up though? Matoni |

Try opening all ports for both incoming and outgoing comms for both Steam and Launcher.
Try running Steam before launching server. It can be empty Steam account not linked to the game. Search the forums for this error. I think I've seen it discussed before. |

~S,
It's all open as the barn door... I'm off to bed, wait and see if anyone figures it out Matoni, |

Wildwillie, I suspect the key is that the -server trigger is by passing the hook from the launcher exe that enables steam "failed to start" and thus advertisments.
Of course this could be failing in client mode, but you can't see the logs. You could try a log setup as so: make a batch file(it may work within shortcut) with the following; launcher.exe 2>log2.txt run batch to run game |

Smokey - using the log output for me does not work.
It tries to launch the game (Non server version) which fails on the server. I've tried launching the game through steam (With the -server option) and through a cmd file (launcher.exe -server) Both fail to load the server into the multiplayer list. I've also made sure steam.exe & launcher.exe can open any incoming/outgoing port (both UDP and TCP) Last edited by wildwillie; 04-25-2011 at 01:24 AM. |

try this
Good news is you can start the server with out modifying the launcher open a CMD window navigate to the steam folder and type in steam.exe -silent -login (username) (password) no Brackets! -applaunch 63950
