no, the tool is a console tool. you just have to run it with some parameters and thats it. never seen a gui installation tool on windows so far. ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Powell To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Sent: Friday, December 25, 2009 7:19 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Unattended server installation - possible?
My issue is not that I can not run the tool - the problem is that the tool which exists on Valve's server is a _GUI_ installer and I can't seem to find a way to preconfigure it to run automatically without a user running through the installation wizard. I have tried using Google but I found nothing which would solve my problem.
