How to make a Counter Strike 1.6 Dedicated server

What do we need ?

HLDSupdatetool -> http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.exe
NoSteamPatcher -> http://www.gameszone.ro/downloads/no-won-steam.zip
AdminMod + MetaMod -> http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/source....50.60-win.zip
StatsMe -> http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/source....3-cstrike.zip

Step 1

Create a dir were the server will be installed example C:\HLDS
Open hldsupdatetool.exe, click next , then I agree we will get to the destination folder, here

we press browse and select Local Disk C , then double click the HLDS folder. OK finish the

steps

Step 2

click Start , then Run , type "cmd" , in the command line type cd C:\hlds

Step 3

if you se in the command line C:\hlds , type hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game valve

-dir .

what this does ? it just start downloading in to the server directory all the latest files

needed by the server to run it will download the latest server aplication.
After you se "HLDS installation up to date" in the command prompt we will install the Counter

Strike mod for the server

Like before at C:\hlds type hldsupdatetool.exe -command update -game cstrike -dir .

after the mod is downloaded the message "HLDS installation up to date

Patching the server to accept Non Steam Clients:
Open no-won-steam.zip wich you have downloaded extract everything in C:\HLDS

Server CFG

At <HOSTNAME> we can type anything we what example "Jack's Counter-Strike Server"
<PASSWORD> is the rcon password for the admin to the server it is used to remote control the

server.

Installing Admin Mod

We have downloaded earlyer halflife-admin-2.50.60-win.zip wich we will extract it anywere and

double click on install_admin.vbs after wich it will ask us where to install. You will se

diferent targets , we are interested in C:\HLDS so we type the number of the target, it will

ask us what mod to install we are interesated in cstrike. OK and that's about it.

Installing StatsMe

we downloaded statsme-2.8.3-cstrike.zip extract everything in C:\HLDS\cstrike
Go to C:\HLDS\cstrike\addons\metamod open plugins.ini with wordpad and here add the next line

on top of the existing one :
Code:
win32 addons\statsme\dlls\statsme_mm.dll

Go to C:\HLDS\cstrike\addons\statsme open statsme.cfg with wordpad
At sm_menupassword modify r3wt with an other password (it's a must! or something won't work)

to make de /rank and /top10 work
open the same statsme.cfg at sm_storebyauth put 0 instead of 1

How to start the server using less resources

make a shorcut for C:\HLDS\hlds.exe on the desktop
on the desktop click the properties of the shortcut you will se at the target C:\HLDS\hlds.exe
we will just add this line ( note ! leav a space between C:\HLDS\hlds.exe and the code)
Code:
-console -game cstrike +ip External IP +sv_lan 1 +maxplayers +map de_dust2 -nomaster

example of target:

C:\HLDS\hlds.exe -console -game cstrike +ip 69.69.123.231 +sv_lan 1 +maxplayers 22 +map

de_dust2 -nomaster

To start the server just double click the shortcut hlds.exe

This is the basic Dedicated Server with Admin Mod and StatME
