How to host your own counter-strike:source server

[B0hlen]

Hey, can someone please respond! It will be greatly appreciated. So anyways I followed your step I'm able to join my own server aswell. Now, for my question is I don't see my server on the "internet" Tab is this normal? Also when I try to connect with my real IP 76.167.189.86:27015 it does not go through is that normal? Thanks in advance!

[fingerboarding007]

@B0hlen Well I know exactly what you mean it does that to me too, however, Watch for my new video, I'll teach in it how to fix this problem/issue, just when I find a little free time to do it.

This is normal, cause steam's tools are bullshit

[MrCaptainChrunch]

@fingerboarding007 Did you find out how to fix it???

[fingerboarding007]

@MrCaptainChrunch Which error are you talking about. I will soonly make a new video, because the steam srcds is just bullshit for me, and i'll teach how to make it with hldsupdatetool

[Ihelp4ever]

Tried to create string table 'DynamicModels' twice

Tried to create string table 'DynamicModels' twice

[radu0505]

Do you know how to make a server in CSS with mods. Like how all the server on Steam are?

[radu0505]

I get this error once i click to start server.

" Tried to create string table 'DynamicMidel' twice "

Whats wrong ????

[fingerboarding007]

@radu0505 I don't know they updated and fucked everything up, even I can't start my own one. I'll try to find a solution =)

[LordrikZ]

T.T when i try to start up a server it says: failed to load the launcher DLL: the specified procedure could not be found. Help please!

[fingerboarding007]

@LordrikZ Try this tutorial gamebanana (dot) com (slash) tuts (slash) 3330

Basically what you do, is you take everything that is in the bin folder and copy/paste it in the source dedicated server folder (where you have the srcds)

[LordrikZ]

@fingerboarding007 Sorry for the retard question but, I need srcds for this :/ I failed twice at srcds T.T If you mentioned it in the video then sorry i guess i didn't watch the video thoroughly. Thanks for helping ^^

[LordrikZ]

@fingerboarding007 oh wait srry fail comment T.T

[screwup1000]

[fingerboarding007]

@screwup1000

[fingerboarding007]

@SIMONSAWESOME I MOLEST IT AT NIGHT !!! :O

[easywayxHardway]

[fingerboarding007]

@easywayxHardway glad it helped

[TRANCE1ification]

dude but i click on run and i tupe cmd and i wrote ipcofig and the defult getawey is 10.10.5.1 plss help

[fingerboarding007]

@TRANCE1ification do you have a router? or your pc is directly connected to your modem, in this case no port forwarding is needed

[TRANCE1ification]

dude can I do it on cs 1.6

[fingerboarding007]

@TRANCE1ification well, yea but its a little bit more complicated. For the ports its the same, not for the server you need to search for hldsupdatetool

[kapebr]

okay.. I maked me one ! And i cant connect it ?!?

I done evry thing ! And i cant self find the mistake ? I cant even press on connect on my css ?

[Kevingrafik]

what about starting port and ending port???

[fingerboarding007]

@Kevingrafik hmmm, just put 27015 for starting port and 27020 for ending one and make sure you put one of those in the source dedi server

ex: UDP port 27016

and this way you can host multiple servers on the different ports you have opened

[PatrickDenSeje]

I got windows 7 but i cant open the cmd please help

[fingerboarding007]

@PatrickDenSeje have no idea,

Only thing i can suggest you is open start menu, type in run in the search box, press enter, and type in cmd never heard of the problem before

[PatrickDenSeje]

@fingerboarding007 alright thanks.

[TheWarlacozte]

@PatrickDenSeje search cmd in the start meny dont searh for run

[fingerboarding007]

@TheWarlacozte this saves you exactly 3 seconds of your life :D

[TheWarlacozte]

@fingerboarding007 he couldn't open cmd, so that could help him. by searching for cmd instead of opening via run might fix the problem he was having (opening cmd using run). the time saving part is just accidental.

[PatrickDenSeje]

@TheWarlacozte still not work ;s

[fingerboarding007]

@PatrickDenSeje ok how it doesnt work does it give you an error message or what, be clear

[PatrickDenSeje]

@fingerboarding007 when i am clicking on it there are nothing happens

[fingerboarding007]

@PatrickDenSeje if by on it you mean the cmd then you are suppose to type with your keyboard the things i tell in the video

[PatrickDenSeje]

@fingerboarding007 alright ;P

[cotyslick]

steam validation rejected eve though i made the steam_appid

[fingerboarding007]

@cotyslick

What i can say is just try and look on the internet, and make sure everything is typed correctly, and if both of these techniques fail just go on steam forums and post a tread with your problem.

Good Luck 

[cotyslick]

@fingerboarding007 na its good man it worked i just forgot to restart the server :S lol thanks again

[MrZomCreep]

NIce job!!



[GoogLf2]

i tried it :( with the correct number... and it didnt work :(((((

on the Source 2007 Dedicated Server

[fingerboarding007]

@GoogLf2 your sure was it placed here :

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\username­\source 2007 dedicated server

[GoogLf2]

@fingerboarding007

100% sure

[imDivineDer]

i get a "can't init info_ladder" any help?

[fingerboarding007]

@imDivineDer I searched and found that this is a map issue try changing your first map to something eles

[GoogLf2]

when im or anyone else is joining, it says something like "STEAM VALIDATION REJECTED"

and im not using cracked or something like that

[fingerboarding007]

@GoogLf2 create a txt folder in the source dedicated folder where the srcds is and type 240 save it under the name of steam_appid.txt

[GoogLf2]

1 question:

my UPnP is working... which its like auto-port forwarding

and steam dedi is probably supporting UPnP

so why you forward ports ?

[tacklel]

haha mine is also only one different :D minne is 102 :P

[polkagrizz]

what shud i do when it say "Steam validation rejected"?

[fingerboarding007]

@polkagrizz

there are alot of possibilities i sugest you trying to run it or a computer that has wired connection

if it is the case try create a txt folder in the source dedicated folder where the srcds is and type 240 save it under the name of steam_appid.txt

if this doesn't work try something with your firewall

you can go check this thread for further information
