Source Shorts #23 - Fixing maxplayers Crash in Source 2013 Multiplayer Mods (Sort Of?) @TheMaster974

Uploaded April 2025 | Updated September 2026, 1 day ago

Hello and welcome to yet another Source Shorts video! Today, I am looking into an issue with Source 2013 Multiplayer mods where if maxplayers is set to 1, the game will crash when a map is loaded. Normally, maxplayers can only be set to a minimum value of 2, however I outline how you can change that in the video, as well as a fix for this crash! At least, for Half-Life 2: Deathmatch mods, Team Fortress 2 mods have...issues with this. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the video, please let me know what you think and I hope you'll check out another one of my videos! Thanks for watching.
