How to Host “Gib Fest” on Your Left 4 Dead 2 Server

1. The Temporary Console Method (Fastest)

If you just want to load up the mode for a quick, chaotic session without making it a permanent server change, you can use your in-game Developer Console (~).

Simply log in as the server admin via RCON (or SourceMod) and type the map command followed by the map name and the mutation2 modifier. For example, to start Dead Centre on Gib Fest, type:

map c1m1_hotel mutation2

---

2. The Permanent Server Config Method

If you want your server to strictly run this high-action mutation all the time, you need to edit your configuration file. Follow the steps below

---

3. Log In to Your Panel

---

4. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

---

5. Select the ‘left4dead2’ Folder

---

6. Select the ‘cfg’ Folder

---

7. Select the ‘server.cfg‘ File

---

8. Edit the server.cfg File

Click on the server.cfg file to open it in the web editor. Scroll to the very bottom and add these two lines to force the server to recognise and boot into the Gib Fest mutation exclusively:

sv_gametypes "mutation2"
mp_gamemode "mutation2"

---

9. Save the Changes

---

10. Restart Your Server
