Can anyone help me out with this command:

set sv_privateclients "4" // Number of private player slots, maxclients - privateclients = public slots


I have my server set at 20 players and reserved 4 slots, it shows in HLSW that 16 slots are open and 4 reserved slots, but how does one sign in on this reserved slots?


Also any help on scrolling text messages out side the ModernRecon program. I have tried:

PB_SV_LOAD TASK.CFG and that doesn't work. I added that command to my pbsc.cfg no luck loading it at server start?


Thanks!

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +password here +connect here

add that to your target line or ingame open console and type
password here <<hit enter
connect ip+port here <<hit enter

OK, so do these slots stay in ranked position are unranked? Private or Public?

If your server is ranked and you enter via password you will still get those ranks like everyone else
public/private doesn't matter you will all get ranked if your server or other servers are ranked

My load file looks so:

"D:\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +XxXxXx +62.75.219.15.28960

but doesn't work it just takes me to the browser window where I select a server?

+XxXxXx +62.75.219.15.28960

should be

+password MYPASSWORDHERE +connect 62.75.219.15:28960
must include the words password and connect also before your port number it should be double dot not single :

thanks bud, I did however find the error on my server and now have scrolling messages, thanks for the tip!

Hey using the command line is one way to do the private slot password

another is drop console type /password privateslotpassword and enter
or you can goto join game and then hit the password button and enter it there as well

make sure that in your server config you have the private slot password entered in there as well

line is this
set sv_privatePassword "private slot password" // Private slots, non-public slots

and for scrolling messages
the way i did mine was went into the pb/pbsv.cfg file and added them to the bottom of the file
works like a charm

and a note to some that dont know -- waste of time to add them to server.cfg they wont work with cod4
they did in cod 2

and an advantage with the pbsv.cfg file is you can modify them and dont have to restart the server to make the change just edit them and then use /rcon pb_sv_restart and they should now run the new edited lines
