Server Need help with dedicated server?

[BFG]

I configured the KillingFloor.ini folder in my system folder to my preferences, started my server up with the kf_server_launcher, and it just uses the default settings, none of configurations did anything. It's also on LAN, and I can't find out how to set it to internet. Could someone help?

I did, didn't see anything that helps me solve this problem.

It should be on LAN for you.

Could I get at least one helpful post?

You've already had two. ffjason's reply is accurate, if you are starting the game on the same computer that you are intending to play the game on, or on the same internal network, it will only show up as a LAN server from your game. If you are having trouble with configuration changes that you have made, then double-check the steps that you have taken against the guide, and check other guides such as the wiki [url]http://www.kf-wiki.com/wiki/Dedicated_server[/URL] and post again with the exact steps you've taken if this fails.

I've read through both guides multiple times, still couldn't find anything. I set the KillingFloor.ini to 40 max players, then launched the game with kf_server_launcher. The cmd log read 6 players, I logged into the game, and it said that the max amount of players was 6. I then edited the kf_server_launcher to 40 max players, launched it, the cmd log then read 40 players, though when I logged into the game, it said only 6 players.

You cannot manually change the player number count above 6 without using a mutator or a command script. Take a looky through this post.

I read all 5 pages on it, since has been months since that post was made, will the mutators still disable perks/achievements/leveling? I want a way to raise the player count over the 6+ limit without having to use the set Engine.GameInfo MaxPlayers command every match, while still being able to use perks, gain achievements, and level them.

If you raise your player count to over 6, you will no longer be able to level. This was implemented in an earlier patch.

Killing floor is designed for 6 players.

you can use the perk replacement muator to allow your players to use perks. But none of the other features will work.

If you want this changed.... keep dreaming i guess.

Where can I download the mutator then? Keep getting a "The connection was reset" error while trying to visit kfmods.

And what about the mutator for increasing the max players? I still can't find it.

I don't think there is a mutator in the public realm. The topic linked to before should have all the details, also if you use the search function you'll probably find quite a few other topics discussing it too.

I searched through the topics above and have been trying to find it by using google, and on this website, still nothing. No actual links or downloads for it, anyway. Found plenty of topics discussing it, they didn't help though.
