Running a simple listen eerver
Alright so now that I have a new awesome gaming laptop, I want to run a server. I dont have any other computer to run it on and I dont have the money to buy a low end computer. I just want a simple server. So far I have forwarded the ports of 27015 to 27016 on TCP and UDP. I made an autoexec.cfg file in the game directory since its default client ports were 27005. Please help me on any other server commands I need to put in the autoexec. Thanks!

If you want to run a dedicated server, there is a process that you need to go through, outlined on our wiki here: http://www.fortress-forever.com/wiki...nstall_a_SRCDS
If you just want to run a semi-temporary server (it will go offline when you disconnect from it), open the console and type sv_lan 0 and then map <mapname>. If your ports are forwarded correctly, it will create a server that other people will be able to join (might want to make sure to take the password off, as it will probably have a default password on it to start).

Don't see why not.
P.S. it's sv_password to control the server pw, just plain password is only used when joining servers

Oh yeah. But one more thing. Every time I join and now set the password during it, it does not still show on the list. I have everything unchecked and it does not show. Do I need to put the command "ip <MY IP HERE>" in the config?

What I do to get the IP is use Steam friends to View Game Info on myself. The server browser can be a bit wonky sometimes and isn't very reliable in general. Have a friend try connecting to the IP it shows from Steam friends to see if its all working first.
