mm_dedicated_force_servers usage

[Clavus]

mm_dedicated_force_servers is an console command that forces the game to search only for dedicated servers you set with this command. You enable your console by going to options->keyboad->advanced->enable developers console. Then press the ~ sign on your keyboard.

Execute this command in console BEFORE making a lobby:

mm_dedicated_force_servers 87.238.173.207:27030

This way you can start Versus or Survival games and play them on the exclusive Mr. Green L4D2 server. More servers can be added by seperating them with a comma, like:

mm_dedicated_force_servers 87.238.173.207:27030,87.238.173.207:27040

Do note that you can't find any other games while searching as lobby leader if this command is set to specific IPs. You'll have to reset it to a blank again if you want to be able to search for other servers.

Does a server support multiple games?

Re-did the whole topic because sv_search_key works terribly. mm_dedicated_force_servers is the way to go. Read the instructions in the first post!

Do realism/survival/scavenge work?

And for every Green server for L4D2 i just have to say "mm_dedicated_force_servers 87.238.173.119:1337,87.238.173.119:1338" in console?

Updated the IPs, they changed after the server swap.
