Can anyone help me make a Cs1.6 Dedicated Death Server??

[goodadmin]

I need someone help me make a cs1.6 deathmatch Dedicated Server, or tell me how to make one step by step. I'm a noob, HELP HELP HELP!
Also I need the Mani-Admin Plugin.
Thanks

I guess I will help seeing as no-one has responded yet..

I don't think I want to type it all out in one sitting so I will walk you through it as you complete the previous step.

I guess the first thing you need to make sure you have is the source dedicated server, or the valve dedicated server. You can find these by going to your steam "tools" tab and downloading the appropriate one.

Sadly, Mani cannot be used on anything other then TF2 and CS:S. However, there is another option called AMX mod X which is essentially mani for 1.6 and lower.

You can find all needed information here.

Post again when you are done those steps.

Well, then, can u help me make a CSS: DM Server with the Mani-Admin thing then. You can help me make the files together, and i'll put them into the folder that needed to go; or you can help me find those websites that will help me.
Thanks.

One more thing, what do cs1.6 servers do for admins??

[Tills13]

Ok, this is much easier now that you want a CS:S server. This is my area, or more into my area atleast.

I will run through all the steps in one as it is a lot easier.

Thank you Why for this part.

1. Downloading Source dedicated server:

1. download the HLDS UPDATE TOOL

2. after you finished downloading the .exe run the wizard. when it asks you for the destination folder, click browse and type c:\srcds in the text and then click OK. Finish installing the wizard.

3. Press Start and click on Run (right side of the start menu). after you click on run a small window will open. type cmd in the box and hit enter.
a command promopt will open and it would say
C:\Documents and Settings\User>
type cd.. and hit enter. Now it will look like
C:\Documents and Settings>
type cd.. and hit enter again. Now it will look like
C:\>
Do not forget that this is case sensitive.
now type cd srcds and hit enter.
It should now look like
C:\srcds>
type hldsupdatetool and hit enter. it will check for the newest version of the tool. there will be a list of things in the command prompt. do not read that it would most likely not make sense to you. just follow the steps here and not on the command prompt.

4. now in your command prompt type
hldsupdatetool -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir C:\srcds

that is assuming you want cs:s for your game server. this will take you on the average about 30 minutes to an 1 hour depending on your internet connection. in that time you can either surf for admin plugins and game mods, or you can "drop the kids off at the pool" if you catch my drift. who says you can't have a good time while working?

5. You will know that your download is finished because it will say it on the command prompt. go to your srcds folder, that means click on my computer then local disk drive C: and then srcds.

6. If you don't know how the server works then i would suggest using the GUI, this is the easiet thing to do.. if you know your commands to run a game server for ex. mp_friendlyfire, then you could probably work through the server console and not the GUI. The advantages of the console over the GUI is that it uses less cpu usage and would not lag as much.a GUI is fine for learning. If you want to use a GUI then you are done. your journey has stopped and you can leave.

7. To run in console you first need to make your own config file. it is simple becuase i will give you the tools to do so. first your C:\srcds folder should still be opened. go into your cstrike then your cfg folder. in there you should see a game.cfg file. if you do then open it up using notepad. if there is information in their press ctrl + a and then press the delete button. Now go to this site CFG MAKER
this is a easy way to make your own cfg. it is straight forward not that much explanation. after you are done creating your cfg from the website copy and paste the information from the website in the black box to your game.cfg file. now press save. close the notepad and right click on the game.cfg press rename and rename the game to server.

8. Now press start and press Run. copy and paste this information in the run box. depending on what map game and players you want to have.
c:\srcds\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike +map de_dust2 -maxplayers 16 -autoupdate

2. Downloading the Mani admin plugin:

Go to here and at the top of the page you will see "Plugin Download". Click the "1.2s (CSSODS)" link and the download will begin.

This
This
And this

are good things to read while both things are finishing downloading.

This

is a VERY good tool to use when making your "clients.txt" which you will read about in the previous links.

Double post as to not go over the max character limit.

In between 2 and 3 take a break and go into your server and make sure everything is the way you like it. Change the gravity or tickrate. Change the name and info so that it is correct. Unfortunately the website that hosts a very good CFG maker is down for awhile, but I will post a link to it later. In the mean time I will give you my CFG which you can work off of.

3. Installing CS:S-DM

This is the sketchy part that I never figured out so I am just going to give you the link to the download and you can go from there. But feel free to ask questions here.

Link

And the how-to on the CS:S-DM site. Linky

I believe I got everything, if not or if you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

That measn CS:S doesn't need the AMX MOD, and can still do the fuctions such as:
/rank
/me
/motd
/help
etc.

[Tills13]

I am not sure what you are saying.

Why would you use a "old" mod for a new game when you have a "new" mod, mani, for a...new game.

Mani supports Rank, Top, MOTD, session, statsme, and I believe it is ma_help..

Why go for less when you can get more?

[goodadmin]

NVM Thanks.
I think that will do it for now,
Tills13,
can u tell me its there anything that i need to add into the cfg files(exec_quake_sound.cfg) like that?

[Tills13]

// execute ban files
exec banned_user.cfg
exec banned_ip.cfg

//Mani Quake Sounds (Quake sounds, these can be found at mani-admin-plugin.com)
exec mani_quake_sounds.cfg

Just those two should do it. Unless you don't put Quake sounds, if so, you don't need the last one.

[goodadmin]

where do i add them to??? and how
give me an example please (i'm a noob）

[Tills13]

You add them to your server.cfg file..at the bottom.

Here is an example of a server.cfg file.
