How to make servers by STEAMCMD

Hello everyone,
Today I will make a small tutorial, it includes how to make servers in these games:

Counter-Strike 1.6

I am using windows 7 to do this tutorial.
You can use :
Windows

Windows 8 ( Tested and working fine )
Windows 7 (Tested and working fine )
Windows XP or older ( I am not sure )

For Linux, I dunno since I never did it, but its the same way.

Firstly, we must download STEAMCMD from the official website, not from anywhere.
***Link: Official STEAMCMD

After you downloaded STEAMCMD, just place it in a folder anywhere in your computer.

After you are done that, Open STEAMCMD and it will automatically update.

After it's done from updating, you will login using your username & password. ( Steam username and password, not alliedMods Forums login )

PHP Code:


		
			
login username

PHP Code:


		
			
Enter your password.

You can try using anonymous if you dont want to login by your username.

PHP Code:


		
			
login anonymous

I'm going to login using my username & password.

Ok, now we will start.
Enter this command to start downloading:

PHP Code:


		
			
app_update 90 validate

You must do it multiple time for the files to get installed. It's a known bug mentioned by VALVE.
( Bug: HLDS (appid 90) currently require multiple installs before the game's files are installed. )

this is the message! You can see it from Here.

If the downloading finished very fast, it means it didnt work.
It must go from 1% => 100%
Mine failed as you can see from the screenshot below.

Okay, after writing the command 5 times, it worked.
It will look like that.

While waiting for the server to finish downloading,
Lets go and download AMXMODX and Metamod.
They are important for the servers, If you dont need AMXMODX, your server will still work.

Anyways, the official links for METAMOD and AMXMODX ( Current: 1.8.2 )

- Official AMXMODX link to download the required files.

For windows, you need these:

For other mods, you must pick the correct MOD for AMXMODX.

Okay! My STEAMCMD finished installing and downloading the files.
Did yours finish?

Okay, to find the server files (Cstrike)

Open STEAMCMD Folder
Open 'SteamApps' folder
Open 'common' folder
open 'Half-Life' Folder

And you will find them there.
Add all the files you downloaded from AmxModX to your cstrike folder.:bacon!:

After doing that, open your cstrike folder and find something called

PHP Code:


		
			
liblist.gam

Open it and edit it. It must look like this!

PHP Code:


		
			
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 "dlls\mp.dll"

//gamedll_linux "dlls/cs.so"

//gamedll_osx "dlls/cs.dylib"

trainmap "tr_1"

gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"

gamedll_linux "addons/metamod/dlls/metamod.so"

Next and the final step, go to cstrike/addons/metamod
and you must add plugins.ini file

For now, you need to add this to make AMXMODX works.

PHP Code:


		
			
; AMX Mod X 1.8.2

win32   addons\amxmodx\dlls\amxmodx_mm.dll

save and exit.
Open the server and enjoy .!

Your server is updated.!

to check your server's version, write version in the HLDS Console

.: Extra Notes :.

To download one of these mods, you must add this command line before doing

PHP Code:

Counter Stike / Half Life

PHP Code:

app_update 90 validate

PHP Code:

app_set_config 90 mod czero app_update 90 validate
