RE: [hlds] partitioning for dedicated server
Michael E. Bergeron wrote: Is there any way that I can set up a dedicated server on my own computer without the partition that would be a good one? HLDS/SourceDS both install into their own directories, making it a very neat and portable server (ie, no registry settings, no system files; everything lives inside the directory you install it to). Just download the hldsupdatetool.exe from the Steam website and run it without any parameters to see the list of available commands. If you plan on running both HLDS and Source games, you will need to install HLDS in its own directory (say c:\hlserver) and Source in its own directory (maybe c:\srcds). Individual games install into their directories beneath that, like c:\hlserver\cstrike or c:\srcds\cstrike. You can run multiple games from a single installation. That is, you can run both CS1.6 and DOD from the same c:\hlserver directory as long as you have the appropriate resources. It sounds like you're going to be running this at home, so make sure that you setup your router appropriately to allow traffic on the correct ports.

RE: [hlds] maxplayers in server.cfg for hlds

I would like a way to invalidate the command in the server.cfg and have only the command line one be used. dex Odd, I was always under the impression that this variable was limited to startup only. I wonder if this changed with Source. I suppose you could also make a config file for each of your clients, and use the mapchangecfgfile cvar (does this work on Source?) to make your own, that'll: 1) exec the client's server.cfg; 2) exec YOUR server, overwriting any cvars you want restricted, like maxplayers. So for instance, for client 1, his startup becomes: +mapchangecfgfile client1.cfg And in client1.cfg, we have: exec Client1-editable.cfg // the file the client can edit maxplayers 16 // the value YOU want for maxplayers That should overwrite any changes they make. -- ironchef http://www.dexworld.org/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

Just make one script for all your 40 servers, and change the redirect to point to it, something like http://www.example.com/query.php?ip=192.168.1.1, modifying the IP for each MOTD.

RE: [hlds] Noob Admin Seeks Answers
BlackYoda wrote: I am new to running a CS: Source server, and I never ran an old-skool CS server. I have been running a battlefield server for almost 2 years now. Hey, welcome to Dysfunction Junction. 1) which anti-cheat software is the best? Which anti-cheat should I use? Do they require a client anti-cheat to be installed like the old days? There are none. VAC (Valve anti-cheat) is barely functional at this point, too. Additionally there's the joyous steam hacks, offering countless IDs for players. Best bet now is to have good admins omnipresent, and issue IP bans rather than ID bans. 2) which stats are good to go? I believe Psychostats is functional with CSS these days, but I haven't had a chance to check it out personally. http://www.psychostats.com/ 3) is server.counter-strike.com info updated to reflect the new source engine or is everything compatible? I've never relied on any one particular web site for information about the server or the console. So many lead to dead links, have horribly outdated information, and/or read like they were written by an illiterate speed freak. This list -- despite the frequent off-topic posts and inability to follow some good ol' standard posting etiquette -- is a decent source of information, so go ahead and post specific questions if you have 'em. I got HLSW working tho, and it seems fine. There's a fun bug in CSS that will prevent rcon from working after a period of time. I haven't experienced it yet, but I've seen mention of it here several times, so maybe one of those suffering from it will help you. But generally, HLSW is a good tool to have. I am liking source/counter-strike a lot, even tho it seems like it is all or mostly just a few of the old maps. I am hoping for some new maps, or more old maps soon... That seems to be the consensus, especially among folks who've been playing CS since its betas. There are a few custom maps floating around now, but with no in-game downloads available (players will have to manually install maps for the time being), it's difficult to get people to play any customs. -- ironchef http://www.dexworld.org/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds

When will it be available! the gang wants to make sure I will have the server up the minute their HDL2 is activated. Like the others mentioned, the multiplayer part of HL2 is Counter-Strike: Source. You can get this the same you way get other games via Steam, using the hldsupdatetool, but with a couple exceptions. First, make a new directory for the Source Dedicated Server (srcds) off your root directory. C:\srcds is a good place. Copy your hldsupdatetool.exe to this new directory. Now run hldsupdatetool.exe like you used to: hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game Counter-Strike Source -username [EMAIL PROTECTED] -password yourpass -dir .
