Hello, before asking I must tell you that my native language is Slovak (not English) so I apologizing for my maybe bad English .

I'm newbie in creation of CS:GO servers so I need help with setup them.

Q: On my server are bots as default. How can I disable they?
Q: I have not created server.cfg in /csgo/cfg folder so I created it and write there some cvars I found on the internet.
Q: I had only servers for CS 1.6 so I don't know exactly how works servers on CS:GO. How can I set (and where) that file "server.cfg" will be executed on every map change and server restart (how to make it as default) and is it needed at all?
Q: How to insert maps?
Q: When I put a plugin in the plugins folder (/csgo/addons/sourcemod/plugins) is needed to write it somewhere (like in CS 1.6 to plugins.ini file)?
Q: As you can know, in CS 1.6 server you must specify cvars like "sv_voiceenable", "voice_enable" etc... is this neede even in CS:GO (server.cfg) for proper voice chat work?
Q: When I write some cvars into the server.cfg file some of them are not changed. How can I this fix?

Thanks for your replies in advance.

Bots can be disabled with bot_quota 0, or even with -nobots when starting the server.

server.cfg is the default server configuration, just put it in csgo/cfg with the cvars that you want.

The maps are stored in csgo/maps/, but there are 2 ways to upload/download. Either you setup Workshop so the server and players download the maps directly from Steam's servers, or, you upload the maps manually to your gameserver, and then to a FastDL so the players can download the maps from there.

No need to put plugins in a .ini file like it was in 1.6, just put them in the plugins folders and that's it.

Voice is enabled by default, there are some commands to restrict the voice chat between teams, dead players, etc.

It's possible that you are writing cvars that are protected and you need to set them with sm_cvar, or some of those cvars are being replaced by the same commands in gamemode_competitive, or casual, etc.

Here some wiki pages.

• 7.5 gamemode_casual_server.cfg

• List of CS:GO Cvars may not work from server.cfg

• 2 Game Type and Game Mode

Anyway, simple explanation to CS:GO settings.

- CS:GO game have different game modes, which you have options to change with:
game_type, game_mode, sv_game_mode_flags, sv_skirmish_id

- Different game modes execute own configure files, this is why some cvars would not work from default server.cfg

- You need create override config file, to change Valves default game mode setting.
example, if you run casual game mode (game_type 0; game_mode 0), it execute file:
...cfg/gamemode_casual.cfg
to override cvar setting from that file, you create ...cfg/gamemode_casual_server.cfg
and add your cvars in there.

- Don't edit CS:GO default gamemodes.txt and gamemode_*.cfg files, because those will get overwritten on steamCMD updates.

Thanks very much for your replies . It was helped me.

Now I have a problem with set up Admins with password. How can I do it? I have setten password in "/csgo/addons/sourcemod/configs/admins_simple.ini" file. In the game I written to the console "setinfo "_password" "<myPwd>" " and when I connect on my server I'm still not Admin.

And now I found another "mistake" .

I have written a cvar "mp_roundtime "20" ". When I restart the server then it works and the first round is 20 minutes. But on second, third etc... rounds it is reduced to 13. Where can be the problem?

could you type in server console:

find game_
find mp_roundtime

...then post output messages in here

If you want find cvars, use find command.
Or peek from here

Does this problem happen on official maps like
de_dust2, de_nuke, cs_office ?

*you could show your

gamemode_casual_server.cfg
