Private Slots on Linux since 1.4

[wax108]

Hi,

I moved my Server to a Linux Debian System.

During the move I updated to 1.4

Since I have 1.4 running he privateslots are not recognized by the game, that means I have 20 Slots and for of them should be private.

All seeing Eye displays 20 public slots.

set sv_privatepassword "XXX"
set sv_privateclients "4"
set sv_maxclients "20"

any idea ?

i believe maxclients should be 24

What does the in-game browser show?

GameSpy and ASE (I believe) does not recognize private slots as being private. As such, it will show whatever sv_maxclients is (i.e. you could have a 50 slot server with 49 private slots, these programs would still show the server as 50 slots).

I believe only the in-game brower accounts for private slots by now showing them.

If you want to test to ensure your private slots are working, set sv_privateclients to 20 and then try to join your server without using your password.

ASE recognized the private slots as I run my server on a windows server. Now I'm using Linux. Thats all I changed. I try tonight what the ingame Browser shows up..
