[derrickchai39]

First question is kinda nooby, but How do u create your own room/server? where you're friends online can join ur "locked" room and u can play maps together.

Second question is can u make a server , with you and ur friend vs 2 -> 10 other bots.

Thanks for you're help guys

P.S i didnt know whre to find this info and where to post it xD

you are asking about how to create server?

first of all there are two type of servers:
listen server (created by getting into New Game) , they are shutdown when you quit game - usually useful for playing with friend.

dedicated servers - that are ran without graphical interface, they are used for 24h / 7days a week work, you can buy such server from game hosting companies.


on your place i would first search for http://steampowered.com forums and then thinkning about bots.

Making a passworded private server is done by simply typing in the password into the "Password" spot in the game creation menu.

Its reeally not difficult to make a listen server, you probably don't need a dedicated, so dont bother thinking about it.

As for bots, that all depends on the game you're trying to play, not all mods have bots. This forum is probably a good place to start looking for bots, though.

I notice when I create a listenserver that my server isn't listed in Steam.
Why is that?

hmmm.
I refresh and everything, but I don't get listed. Maybe it's the firewall or router?

you must set sv_region

Where do I set sv_region? in like the listenserver or the autoexecute?

would sv_region be used like
sv_region "America" ? I'm not so creative.

eastcoast - sv_region 0
westcoast - sv_region 1
south america - sv_region 2
europe - sv_region 3
asia - sv_region 4
australia - sv_region 5
middle east - sv_region 6
africa - sv_region 7
world - sv_region 255
