What do we do this exactly?

rzrpack (2008-11-19)

into what directory though?

rzrpack (2008-11-19)

oh and this will just fix for LAN, we still can't play on steam right?

weewing427 (2008-11-19)

erm...ok. So i downloaded the multiplayer fix, but i still cant get into campaign or versus using hamachi. Can someone please tell me what has changed with this fix?

evan2k13 (2008-11-19)

try http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/4518860/
works with steam (real online with real people) lan, hamachi, everything. use steam friends to play with friends.

lachy87 (2008-11-19)

just wondering how we select LAN game, as all i can get into is lobby's via online games
i wanna make a LAN game

demm26 (2008-11-19)

You have to do something with Hamachi for LAN game....
Cannot remember what though, sorry dude...
p.s - some sort of IP setting?

K3MiN (2008-11-19)

this file will get rid of the "no steam validation" error too, i think its the same.

robban_lol (2008-11-19)

This doesnt work for me, cause a pop comes up when i try to play online and it says : u must be login to steam to play it. is it because ive the russ version?? plz help

DJKevy (2008-11-19)

you need to login to steam to get it to work, it will only get rid of the "no steam validation" error

H4rdC0reG4mer (2008-11-19)

if i dont have steam,the no online play right?

rzrpack (2008-11-19)

Does this one randomly exit out like evan's or does it fully work

K3MiN (2008-11-20)

@ rzrpack: i didnt had any problems with this dll.

superbolli (2008-11-20)

Newer versions of Hamachi doesn't support LAN gaming. Use one of the older versions. I use 1.0.1.5 and it works perfect!

evan2k13 (2008-11-20)

mine doesnt randomly exit out thats your english sound patch.

8848839 (2008-11-20)

You need to have Steam installed, then go to "My Games" -> "Add non-steam game"
Then choose your non-steam Left 4 Dead.
This is after you've copied the multiplayer fix (engine.dll) into your Program Files\Left 4 Dead\bin folder.
You might want to save your original engine.dll in case it crashes.
got this from mininova and it works for me hope it helps

demm26 (2008-11-20)

Anyone released dedicated server files CRACK yet? playing it on local-server gives mega timeouts when starting a level !!!

K3MiN (2008-11-20)

@ 8848839: just run "left4dead.exe" or "LiQUiD8002.exe".

rebsy (2008-11-21)

Does anyone know how to start a Dedicated LAN server with L4D_FULL_CSMANIA.RU?

Oneill5491 (2008-11-21)

The Russian version still seems to crash...but it seems less frequently than the English version.
@rebsy, I tried exploring that option already. You can set up a dedicated server using the dedicated server client under the "Tools" tab in steam, but the problem is that you can't connect to your server because it is the equivalent of trying to connect to someone else's server which won't pass validation. Clicking "host locally" inside the game seems to be the only way to play the game. Granted the server isn't dedicated and your teammates will get dropped as soon as you crash, but it seems to be the only way to do it.

copy and paste this^^ with ur Steam username so people can meet up on the online servers thanks.
==OFFICIAL L4D FRIENDS LIST==
Username=Dead2fall123

dead2fallX (2008-11-22)

====OFFICIAL L4D FRIENDS LIST=====
Steamname = Dead2fall123
ok people i got like 20 friends on my profile so add me and view my profile then add everyone on my friends list all those people are from pirate bay trying to play the pirate version of L4D if u have everything working add them and u will play online all day.
:::IMPORTANT TIP FOR ONLINE PLAY::: also to the people who cant figure out this is what u do after u got the Multiplayer patch. U log in on steam with your fake account then go to 'MY games" then click on add a none steam game then browse then add RUN_L4D.exe then launch and in game click Shift+Tab to see your friends and you r set for L4D online.
:::HOSTING TIP:::
to host go to campaign click on'' play with friend'' make sure to make it local u cant make a dedicated server then u can set it to public or FRIENDS ONLY thanks.

Valmaix (2008-11-22)

ONLINE NOT WORK ANYMORE!!! Steam pached it.. we need new crack.. before working good, but not anymore..

gopewpew (2008-11-23)

to clarify Arctic_one's post on how to get the game to work , you can do the following to play across hamachi or LAN:
Hosting a game:
-Run steam with your new account.
-Start l4d. Go to options, mouse/keyboard, then enable the developer console.
-Start a single player game choose mission and start.OR press tilda "~" to bring up console, then type in map
(the console should show a list of available maps. either hospital, small town, airport, or farm) select the one you want and start the single player game.
-after game as loaded press Tilda "~" and type in "sv_lan 0" as well as "sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0"
these two commands allow your game to be seen across lan and people to join via the connect command in console.
I know its weird to have sv_lan 0. but thats the value that has worked for me and my friends across both hamachi and lan.
Joining a game:
-Run steam with new account, start l4d.
-Options , mouse/keyboard, enable developer console.
-Go back to main menu. press tilda "~" type in Connect
the Ip is either the hosts lan IP. or Hamachi given IP.
Enjoy

gopewpew (2008-11-23)

to fix my last post, you cannot run a single player game then host. you have to instead open console and type in the command "map l4d_...." to run the server and level. then type the two "sv" commands listed above.
map names:
no mercy = "map l4d_hospital..."
death toll = "map l4d_smalltown..."
dead air = "map l4d_airport..."
blood harvest = "map l4d_farm..."

Tazadar (2008-11-24)

Worked lika a charm gopewpew u got my thanks :D

bloodred125 (2008-11-24)

bla , if you want to play multiplayer just buy it, its only $30 FFS from Steam. Unless your in NZ or aus i think its about $80 or $90 not worth it unfortunately but in the USA or Europe its only abotu $30 its worth that much. Its not worth $100 though.

crippe91 (2008-11-24)

first off, thanks a lot gopewpew! i've been looking for a way to host frantically for the last 2 days xD
anyways, do u know how to host versus? any help would be appreciated, thanks =)

Sgt.Kanyo (2008-11-24)

Actually it's for 50$ on steam and I have no idea how much in stores. As for the multiplayer: is this hamachi a program which enables to play threw LAN even without connection between 2 computers?

Immortalll (2008-11-26)

Hi , i got a problem with the left 4 dead...
The steam appid thing WAS working now i cant get it to work , everytime i join or host it dissconnects me

Thanks! L4D rules

Immortalll (2008-11-26)

Immortalll (2008-11-26)

AND! the developer console dosent work on me :S
I enable it and then press Tidle , nothing happens ...

macke0 (2008-11-26)

I have the same problem as above, cant get the console to show up, I have tried every key combo.

macke0 (2008-11-28)

Fixed my problem with brining up the console:
I merely looked up config.cfg and changed the bind "´" toggleconsole to "F10" and saved.
But that was not all...I also had to look up config_default.cfg and do the same procedure again. Otherwise the game resetted my changes on opening. Good luck guys and hope this works for you too. :)

Tazadar (2008-11-28)

Or else u can name the EXE file left4dead -Console and it will bring up the console when u start the game. :)
Then type "bind" then the key u want to bind in my EX i used l and then toggleconsole.
Should look like this.
bind l toggleconsole

lightbots (2008-11-29)

instead of hamachi u can play @ garena, look it up and enjoy

depheat (2008-12-01)

I could not play on Lan with the instructions provided. I did figure it out a different way.
The Server has to type "sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0" in the console. Then create a campaign and wait in the lobby. On the client type "connect 192.168.x.xx" (Server's IP). Once the client presses enter, it looks for that IP and retrys ten times. During this time, the Server has to Start the game. Some how it forces the connection. I tried it every way but this seemed to be the way that worked.
I could not create a game first with the server and then connect from the client, it would deny the client. hope this helps some people.

Fjonte18 (2008-12-02)

I cant launch left 4 dead :( plz help!

monkeylordmafia (2008-12-04)

I have tried gopewpew method and depheat's method. I cannot create a lobby online or with friends (connection with session has been lost) and i cannot create single player using "map l4d_hospital_apartment 1", or something like that, (steam validation rejected [i have a legit steam account]) and if i try to do it single player with the two sv commands the client cannot join-an error message comes up saying "cannot join a single player game from a remote I.P. address.

monkeylordmafia (2008-12-05)

oh and btw its 44 AUS dollar, or 50 NZ dollar (=30 US dollar)

waluigi1110 (2011-02-16)

Ya, didnt work for me, its probably because every day steam pays hundreds of people to look for "working" cracks and online fixes, as soon as they find it, they fix it
