Thread: HLTV

One of the few things that I have a hard time with on the (DOD) server is that when the server is full, the reserved slot makes it impossible to use the "auto-join" feature of Steam. To get on, I'm left having to refresh the server info screen every few seconds waiting for the player count to drop to 19.

What if you guys set up a couple of small HLTV servers that the admins could access to spy on the servers and watch suspect players?

That would fill that reserved slot allowing players to use the autojoin feature and it would also allow a kind of Admin Lobby for admins to gather in while watching the server where they could easily chat amongst themselve, get some more spectator features, and shoot video for evidence. It would also be "Always on" so players would never really know when an admin was watching them.

Bigdog had once mentioned something about having a little server bandwidth left, but not really enough for another full-out server (am I remembering that right?). I think this would be a good use of that remaining capacity.

It worked pretty well for my server, but that was back on the HL1 engine. I have no idea if this is even possible under Steam and Source engine. Just figured I'd run it up the flagpole.

you know, i was wondering how we could get a sort of "stealth spec" going. there are some people that definitely do worse when i go spec... this could help .

so bigdog, how 'bout it?

Seems like a good idea to me. Although, it also sounds like it might be hard to setup. :/

Yeah, I think it's caled SourceTV, pretty kick ass idea... never seen it in person though.

If it is hidden spec that's fucking Mario vs. Superman tight.

I know it's possible, but have no idea where to begin - I'll look around on the net today..

Anything ever come out of this? Just checkin'.

if your playing lan type in console:

sv_lan 1

all lan players must type this in or they get disconnected at random...
