Counter Strike Source Dedicated Server

This .rar arcive contains all the files needed to run and update your own css dedicated server.



Installation:

To Install the server you just have to extract the .rar file you you C directory. It's vital that it gets

extracted to the C directory, or else you can't update it (wich is essential). when that is done you

have a folder at C:CSS Server containing all the server files and what not.



Next you want to add yourself as admin and here's how you do:



go to C:CSS Servercstrikecfgmani_admin_plugin

Open up adminlist.txt configuration

Follow the instructions given in the text file

if you're not sure what your steam ID is, go to a random game online and type status in the console.



Server settings can be configured in C:CSS Servercstrikecfg in the Server.cfg file.



The last thing you need to do in order for everything to work is portforwarding. www.portforward.com

is a great website with info on close to every router out there on portforwarding. for counter strike

you wanna forward ports 27011 in both TCP and UDP as well as port 27015 (also TCP and UDP)



Updating the server:

Before you run the server for the first time, it's important that you run the update. Chances are

that the game may have been updated in the time this has been on tpb.



To update you simply run the Server Update shortcut found at C:CSS Server



Starting up the server:

Now all we need to do is start up the server.

To do this we need to make a shortcut for the srcds.exe found in C:CSS Server.

When that is done you need to right click that shortcut and go to properties.

Here we need to add a little something in the "target" field. It should say something like:

C:GMODsrcds.exe

we want to add -console -game Cstrike +map de_dust2 -maxplayers 24 -autoupdate +port 27015 -tickrate 100

into the target field, so now it says:

C:GMODsrcds.exe -console -game Cstrike +map de_dust2 -maxplayers 24 -autoupdate +port 27015 -tickrate 100

you can go ahead and change these settings, if you want more/less players or another map to play. In any case

your server is now done and ready to use!If you need further help, just ask in the comments of this torrent and I'll help you out.
