Password Problem

(Smeg77) #1

Since the last update from Version 2 to Verison 3 in the hldsupdateool, I’ve not been able to get my password protected server to run with a password enabled, and I have to manually set the cvars in the console, and then kick everyone that’s just joined it, which is getting annoying.

Here’s the cfg for the passworded server:

si_rules sdGameRulesCampaign
applyServerConfig Standard
campaign set campaign_resistance
si_playMode 1
si_onlineMode 3
si_needpass 1
g_password "********"

But for some reason it’s not picking up on the si_needpass and the password, it worked before but doesn’t now.

Anyone else had this problem?

I posted in another thread on something similiar, where your server.cfg isn’t being recognized. Check your brinkedconfig.cfg. Scroll through the settings and see if the ones from your server.cfg were copied over. I had this problem with trying to remove reserved slots from mine, made changes in that file, and it suddenly worked.

I don’t seem to have a brinkedconfig.cfg in my Base folder, I’ve been through all the other configs in there and they all seem fine.

rename your new custom cfg to something else
server.cfg —> server_1.cfg
Thats what I need to do everytime I change a cvar
Its like the server remembers old settings even after a reboot
