That's ok, just use the one that works

How would i go about setting up a 2nd server? The server ip to the VDS is 64.94.101.232 and the server that is running is 64.94.101.234. How would i set up a 2nd server?

You could do this by copying the cssbeta folder to another one and adjusting your startup lines to use that, change your configuration files, and so on. For the command line for the second server, you'd need to use -port xxxxx, where xxxxx is some other number than 27015, such as 27016.

Hi I have just changed operating systems. I downgrade the VDS from Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2003 x64


I was wondering if this same code would work to start up the servers as it did in windows 2008.

cd\Game installs
mkdir cssbeta
hldsupdatetool.exe -game cssbeta -command update -dir cssbeta
cd cssbeta\cssbeta
srcds.exe -game cstrike_beta -ip 74.201.57.111 -port 27015 -console +maxplayers 32 +map de_dust2

Yes, the same steps should work on both operating systems.

Thank you very much. It works.

We are only getting 500 fps now. We were getting 1000 on Windows 2008 R2. I was wondering if this is due to changing the operating system.

[Edge100x]

Yes, that's correct. Windows 2003 supports only up to 500fps.

For Source/Orangebox games, the total FPS doesn't make as big of a difference as with GoldSrc. As long as your achieved tickrate isn't dipping, the gameplay should be very similar between a Windows 500fps and 1000fps server.

I want to make this command work for cstrike not beta. What would i have to change in this command line and also do i add orange box somewhere??? it has to be orangebox.


cd\Game installs
mkdir cssbeta
hldsupdatetool.exe -game cssbeta -command update -dir cssbeta
cd cssbeta\cssbeta
srcds.exe -game cstrike_beta -console +maxplayers 32 +map de_dust2

[Edge100x]

Code: Select all

cd\Game installs
mkdir sourcebase
hldsupdatetool.exe -game "Counter-strike Source" -command update -dir sourcebase
cd sourcebase
srcds.exe -game cstrike -console +maxplayers 32 +map de_dust2
