L4D2 Crashes When Joining SRCDS

Mortiegama · **Author**

Anytime I try to join my local server from L4D2, the L4D2 crashes. It's been working fine up until the update we got from Steam last night. I upgraded the SM 1.4 and MM 1.8.2 but still the same problem.

Windows Vista X64

Here are the crashes, I tried to analyze them but for whatever reason VS doesn't want to recognize them.

Edit: The server works perfectly fine if I join it from a Lobby, it's only throwing this error when I try to login through my Steam Group's listing.

Edit 2: It seems to be the problem only occurs when I try to launch it as a Versus.

Any server using "sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0" is making the client crash to desktop since the latest update. Change that to 1 and a lobby will be forced if you join from steam group.

More ppl should file this bug to valve. I know I did, but they diden't give a shit. Probably an attempt to brake modded servers.

Only legit servers has this problem

I'm not sure about windows, but my linux srcds makes my game crash to desktop everytime I join it if it has sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0
This has been tested by several other server owners I know, so it is defently not a sourcemod/metamod issue.

You diden't. I just assumed. This issue seems to be solved for me now, but don't know if it exists for others.
Try setting sv_allow_lobby_connect_only to 1 in server.cfg and it will work. If ppl have problems with sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0, it needs to be report to valve.
