Server browser now shows 0/(total players - fake count) instead of faking the player count. On steam's out of game server browser the count shows fine.

Using Tsunami's plugin.

Yes, Valve did that so people wouldn't think there were people playing. This adds fake spectators, if you want real fake clients in the server browser this is the wrong plugin.

Just FYI, my server's IP was delisted when I was using this plugin. I was told that I had hundreds of players join, then leave shortly after joining (presumably because the player count, which showed the fake cilents, was misleading), which lowered my TF 2 server's score, removing it from the server list. I removed it immediately after learning I had been delisted and changed my IP address and I was back in business. I have since emailed someone at Valve and the old IP was 'un'delisted.

YES, this has been asked already. Im after a fake client plugin that shows as real players, on both windows and ingame server lists. I do no care if they are spectators or not. Anyone know of such a plugin?

This one works like that unless you are looking at the server list from outside of the game. If you are in-game and look at the server list, it shows the fake clients as real.

Just be careful and read my above reply. Your server will very likely get delisted when using this plugin unless you have a good base of players that will be on so pubbers don't enter then leave constantly.

Yeah i dont care about being delisted as my servers are invite only.

Also, i was after something that shows real on ranking websites too. Eg... game - monitor. Everything i try, game monitor knows they are bots.

[DJ Tsunami]

Why would you care about ranking if your servers are invite only anyway? Either way, all of those fake clients plugins are private, so this is the best you'll get without paying for it.

[L33t_Of_Lag]

ranking for business purposes, and thanks for all the info cheers.

Have you TRIED this plugin to see if it does what you want? It would be easier and faster for you just to test it yourself.

[L33t_Of_Lag]

i have tried this plugin. Shows with bots.
