Well I cannot make it run dedicated, not even from the CSmod itself.
It insists on downloading stuff from Speakeasy.net thats a problem, because, the LAN network we are playing on, does not, I repeat, does not feature internet connection.

So is there a way to bypass this? I am running the 1.5 pack on Cs 1.4 (problem is there?) HL 1.0.0.9

It could be that, but then again, why does it insist on downloading this? Non steam over here.
