Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Hi,first post so be gentle please.:|

I run (trying to run) a lan server with HLDS.But I cant find the file:dedicated server you mention to put quicksetup in.Its all new to me so confused.???:(

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

you should have this view:
- for standalone version http://home.comcast.net/~n.siakotos/hlserverfolder.jpg
- for steam http://home.comcast.net/~n.siakotos/ded1.jpg

extract the file there ;)

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Go here and follow instructions
http://home.comcast.net/~n.siakotos/index.html

All you have to do is run a server first steam won't create the file untill you run the server just double click on dedicated server under your my games list wile running steam, let the server start up and run then exit out go back in to the folder and it should be there if you want you can use my full pack located at my site for easy install process

project-xt
haha i posted same thing 2 min after you did what are the odds
13:48

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

what about doing a thread for serversettups together?? :P
would be easier to manage and better for the forum,...

maybe we could even to it on one page,...
feedback please

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

thats a good idea :) that would be alot better than looking through tons of threads when it seems that server setup problems are scattered accross the forum not just for realbot it would be nice to see everything in one place instead of repeating the same thing over and over why don't you start the thread
and for future refrence when you put a link to something on my page use my homepage because the screenshots are .jpg they get distorted when you just view the jpeg in IE and not use the photogallery viewer "because i used frontpage to create it"

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Thanks guys,bots are working great,but amx isnt.should I re-install quickserver????:(

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Sorted now,shortcut starts server with bots but doesnt let amx work.starting server from directory allows amx and bots to work.=)



Now amx has stopped working.:'(

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

still waiting to hear back from you project-xt i did another update at my site, full pack now includes amx and hlbooster I already added in all plugins that come with amx are working with bots so far and if you guys would like to see any other plugins included let me know at my comments page

http://home.comcast.net/~n.siakotos/index.html

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

XT, when I extract them to where you say,I can only get rb to work.To get amx to work I have to remove: gamedll "..\realbot\dll\realbot.dll" from liblist.gam and replace it with: gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll".What am I doing wrong????:(

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

you can not run two gamedll commands at once, thats what metamod is for, put your realbot command into the metamod plugins.ini along with the amx command line
your metamod.ini should look somthing like this if your running realbot and AMX
//Realbot
win32 ..\realbot\dll\realbot_mm.dll

//AMX
win32 addons/amx/dlls/amx_mm.dll

//CS Stats
win32 addons/amx/dlls/csstats_ms.dll

//Fun
win32 addons/amx/dlls/fun_ms.dll

Your liblist.gam should look like this

game "Counter-Strike"
url_info "www.counter-strike.net"
url_dl ""
version "1.6"
size "184000000"
svonly "0"
secure "1"
type "multiplayer_only"
cldll "1"
hlversion "1111"
nomodels "1"
nohimodel "1"
mpentity "info_player_start"
gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
gamedll_linux "dlls/cs_i386.so"
trainmap "tr_1"

If you need more help go to my site and review the screen shots

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

@Norm
you havn't overwritten liblist.gam
simply overwrite everything with the files in my package. they're tested to work properly


@Jester5867
right back from work now
can't access this page during the day, (only evening and weekends)
good update on your site

BUT: do NOT put Adminmod & AMX in the same package. they're doing the same work. so you have two management-programms running -> higher load, no effort
make to packages, one with AMX, one with Adminmod

also, you do not need StatsMe in the AMX package (already included in AMX)

?? what's hlbooster ?!? never heard before

more tomorrow

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Xt,before I overwrite liblist,amx works and bots dont.When I overwrite liblist then bots work and amx doesnt.:|

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Thanks
But adminmod and amx are only somewhat similar adminmod is besicly that and admin tool amx is a format that allows scriptpack plugins to be loaded to make counter strike more fun like the fun plugin and of course the famous warcraft 3 plugin things like this cannot be used without amx, its more of a script pack tool and i do not have the amx set up to run the server adminmod is but amx does have some neat tools for the clients that make things more interesting, i guess you could say adminmod is for the admins and amx is more for the players. Both are equally powerfull tools but both have there reasons for being loaded. And it does not put any more of a load on the server than any other of the plugins. But i can see where your coming from, when i set up a server i edit out the amx server commands all i want is the cool plugins
Hl Booster is a great tool for lan parties or LPB servers because by default CS cannot run any higher than 60fps what HLbooster does is bypasses that and allows the players to get fps in the hundreds i get 326 my self, but is reserved basicly for lans because it increases the bandwidth needed for eachplay by alot. The performance gains are pretty cool because everything looks smoother and allows for a much more realistic gameplay
as for statsme does not come with amx, amx gave up on stats me a while ago because of AMX which uses script language so UA took over statsme. AMX uses csstats which is diffrent but equally cool tool. Again somthing i edit out i have everything together so people can choose what they do or do not want to keep gives them a chance to play around since everything is easally commented out and reactivated easally. Again i do see where your coming from and i think i will Make 2 more packs an Adminmod Based server pack and an AMX based server pack because it seems server admins have there preferances. However for a lan party with a dedicated server theres nothing better than having everything running simply because of the 100 mbit connections to the server. When i made the last pack I put them together simply to let people choose but i guess it would be a good idea to pre edit everything and put it into two diffrent packs
BTW did you set up that thread?

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

Jester with your fullpack installed I can run server and amx,adminmod work,but it only lets me have one bot.When I have more than one they appear for awhile and start game(maybe 10-15 seconds,sometimes)but then the server crashes.With one bot it will run without crashing,was on with one bot for 45 mins and had no problems.This is what appears in console when I start server:

couldn't exec listip.cfg
couldn't exec banned.cfg
Executing Admin Mod config file
Adding master server 207.173.177.12:27010
Adding master server 207.173.177.11:27010
couldn't exec wptmenu.cfg
couldn't exec wptmenu.cfg
Type 'amx_help' in the console to see available commands
Time remaining: 19:43 min. The next map will be cs_747

Re: Fast Server Setup
 

copy and paste the wpt menu into your cstrike directory from the realbot folder and make sure bot protection in adminmod.cfg is set to on or 1 as far as i can tell you didn't copy and paste everything that is in the folder because wptmenu is one of the things in my pack

6.
Listen Server: "you want to play on same machine as server" Copy and paste realbot and adminmod folders to your Counter-Strike folder located
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\youremail\Counter-Strike
Now open the downloaded cstrike folder and copy and paste everything into your cstrike folder except for the maps folder and the sound folder: open the sound folder and open misc copy and paste sound files into your sound\misc folder open maps and copy and paste files inside into your maps folder if it tells you you already have the file then just click yes to replace
do not copy and paste sound or misc folder and do not copy and paste cstrike folder and do not copy and paste maps folder

Steam Dedicated Server: "you cannot play on same machine as server but increased performance" Copy and paste adminmod and realbot folders into Dedicated Server located
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\youremail@\dedicated server
Everything else same as above

Standalone Server: "this is if you downloaded steam standalone server you would know it if you did" if you are looking for optimal performance for a lan or a public server then this is the way to go"
Copy and paste Realbot and adminmod folders into c:\hlserver
Everything else Same as above

Make sure you have my current full pack if you are having trouble setting up full pack then use the adminmod_server or amx_server packs

Point me in the right direction plz.:)
