How to Fix “Server Enforcing Consistency” Error on Your Left 4 Dead 2 Server

Note:

This is the #1 reason players get kicked when trying to join a server. By default, Left 4 Dead 2 kicks anyone who has custom weapon or zombie skins installed locally. You can easily disable this strict check so everyone can play

1. Log In to Your Panel

2. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

L4D2 Server Dashboard, Files Tab Highlighted

3. Select the ‘left4dead2’ Folder

Navigating to the left4dead2 root folder in the Cybrancee server file manager

4. Select the ‘cfg’ Folder

Clicking the server.cfg file in the Cybrancee file manager to edit configuration settings

5. Select the ‘server.cfg‘ File

Clicking the server.cfg file in the Cybrancee file manager to edit configuration settings

6. Add the Consistency Override Command

Paste the following command at the bottom of the file. Setting this to 0 tells the server to ignore what visual mods the players have installed:

sv_consistency 0

Adding the sv_consistency 0 command to the server.cfg file to prevent modded players from being kicked

7. Save the Changes

8. Restart Your Server
