How to Make the Jockey’s Leap More Powerful on Your Left 4 Dead 2 Server

Important!

You must have SourceMod and MetaMod installed on your server before following this guide. If you do not have them yet, check out our guides on installing them first.

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 Jockey Override Commands

Scroll to the very bottom of your configuration file. Because these settings are normally locked behind sv_cheats, we are going to use the sm_cvar prefix. This tells SourceMod to force the server to accept the changes without needing to enable cheats!

Copy and paste these lines into your file:

sm_cvar z_jockey_leap_range "700"
sm_cvar z_jockey_leap_time "0.1"
sm_cvar z_jockey_speed "300"

(Note: The default leap range is only 200. Bumping it up to 700 allows the Jockey to launch himself from incredibly far away)

Editing the server.cfg file in the web dashboard to include sm_cvar commands for the Jockey's leap range, time, and speed

7. Save the Changes

8. Restart Your Server
