how do I create a dedicated server that is versus

[DOTA=ALGORITMO DE MRDA]

A few days ago I downloaded left 4 dead 2 dedicated server that appears in tools, but I can only create games in the campaign, I would like to know what I should do or download, to create a dedicated server that is versus

add these lines to your server.cfg

mp_gamemode "versus"
sv_gametypes "versus"

Research server.cfg, there is a lot you can configure.

You are better off NOT using the L4D2 Server from the tools Library.
If you are able install your server on an old computer you have at the house.

Friend, thanks for your help but I already downloaded it from tools and not from steamCMD which is a tutorial for configuring windows 7 and mine is windows 10. What I would like to know is if you know how to open the "srcds" icon but in CMD format. Thanks for your help

The tutorial works for both Windows 7 and Windows 10 it makes no difference.
When you use the scrds there will be a console tab that you can use.

You dont need mp_gamemode, this cvar (as all other mp_) is only based on the current game, a map change or an lobby can easily change that, you need to block those first.

You will need sv_gametypes "versus", this allow lobbies to start on your server, only versus lobbies.
To make the server also start as a versus, just add VERSUS after a map command.

srcds.exe -game left4dead2 +sv_lan 0 -port 27015 +sv_gametypes "VERSUS" +map "c1m1_hotel" versus -console

Something like this.

Now I'm in "Server.cfg" in that steam guide says I must create one, well you already believe it and put it where it says and put "exec server.cfg" to run and it does not, and probe many ways and you do not want to read it I get "could not exec server.cfg" or maybe it is not writing well something in the cfg file. Your friend says in your comment that you have a server versus, please can you pass me your cfg file? thanks for helping

You don't need "+exec server.cfg" in most cases.

If the file is on the right folder (meaning ServerFolder\left4dead2\cfg\server.cfg ) it will auto-execute every time the server loads (including map changes)
I'm not sure, but i think this file is auto-generated when you download your server.

Hello, I still have problems with the file "server.cfg" which when starting I get in console that "could not exec server.cfg" there is no way I read it, I do not know what it is, maybe it's that download left 4 dead 2 dedicated server from tools and not from steamCMD but still the files are the same at the end of the download, in the end I do not know what the problem will be xD.

Well, you can always validate the files just like a game, even with steamcmd is possible.
Anyways can you post the full path where you server is ? And where exactly did you put server.cfg?

It could have problems with location of the .cfg or permission denied to the file..

[JTM]

Blank out the passwords and post the contents of your server.cfg file

Post the exact path you have put in server.cfg file into. It doesn't go into your Client cfg folder it goes into the cfg folder that belongs to your server folder structure.

I put it in C: / steam / steamapps / common / left4dead2dedicatedserver / left4dead2 / cfg / "server.cfg" good as long as it's inside cfg C: / steam / steamapps / common / left4dead2 / left4dead2 / cfg / "server.cfg" I also put it there to see if it would serve then delete it and leave it l4d2dedicated server and viceseversamente, I already know too many ways and I think the error is to download from tools and not from CMD but at the end of the download the files turn out to be the same and I think it would not be that either, I really have no idea of the problem. I also put the file "server.cfg" in cfg format to read it and nothing, in the end I think there is no way

The main problem I think is that you do not want to run the server.cfg file and I do not understand why you do not want to run it or recognize the server.cfg file is as if it did not exist, because I tried to remove server.cfg from the cfp file, because the same thing could come out "could not exec server" that is to say that for more than this the file or not inside the cfg folder I always get the same thing

[JTM]

The file looks fine to me. The only error I see is that you have sv_consistency 1 in one area
and sv_consistency 0 in another.

"The main problem I think is that you do not want to run the server.cfg file and I do not understand why you do not want to run it"

I never said that. Of course you want the server to run server.cfg.
