[OLD] How-to Setup a CSPromod BETA 1.04 Server

[fskee]

On this page we will cover the installtion process of CSPROMOD on Windows . First, you will need to download and install the windows hldsupdatetool (local download). http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.exe The default install path is C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer which is fine in most cases. Your drive letter may differ than above. Be sure you run the hldsupdatetool installer with administrator privileges. Once you've installed the hldsupdatetool, continue reading.

Installing source dedicated server (SRCDS)
On Windows, click start, then select run and type cmd then, in the DOS window type:

cd C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer

Now, lets update and install Counter-Strike: Source, run the following command:

HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir .

Note the period after -dir - Make sure not to leave it out

Installation will take around 30-60 minutes (~800MB). After the "HLDS installation up to date" message, setup is now complete and you are ready to start the server.

Add the cspromod 1.04 in the hlds (C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer)

2. Starting CS Source Server via Console
Browse to C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer find and right click srcds.exe and select Create Shortcut. Now you should have a shortcut icon of srcds.exe. Right click that newly created shortcut and select Properties

By now, You should be in the shortcut properties window



Counter-Strike command line options

Below are a list of commands you can enter in the target field to start the server.

-console
Initializes console mode

-autoupdate
Automatically update the server when Steam updates are released

-game <game name>
The HLDS mod you want to run

+maxplayers <number of players>
Amount of players to allow

+map <map name>
The map to start the server with

+port <port number>
The port number the server should run on. Can be left out if you plan on using the default port (27015).

Under the shortcut target field is where you will need to enter some options. See above for current -flags you can use, we want to start our server with a limit of 20 players and on csp_dust2 so our shortcut target field will look like this:

"C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\srcds.exe" -console -game cspromod -autoupdate +maxplayers 20 +map csp_dust2

Note the quotes around the path, they are required if the path contains a space

Now we click OK on the Shortcut window. To start the server we simply double click the shortcut we created and the server will start up with the options we added to the target area. Our server is now running



You can also start the server without creating a shortcut: Click on Start, Run, then type cmd now in the DOS prompt window, type:

cd C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer

then type:

srcds.exe -console -game cspromod -autoupdate +maxplayers 20 +map csp_dust2

However, we recommend creating the shortcut so you do not have to type the commands each and every time you want start the server.

Eventually, you will want to alter the server hostname, and other cvars for the server. To do this, use our SRCDS cfgmaker, It can generate a configuration file, even if you have very little knowledge.

C:\Program Files\Valve\HLServer\CSPromod\cfg : server.cfg

// These are a reasonable set of defaults for a CSPromod server. You
// probably don't need to (and shouldn't) change the values other than
// those near the top.

// This is a modified version of the CAL CS:Source league config, originally
// written by laurent@caleague.com. Modified by Divo Networks
