Someone answer this!!!!!!!!!

My thoughts.... do the install like you would a normal dedicated server... See what happens?

Copy + paste the files and change your liblist (its in the install guide)

in the guide on your page, the windows version commands to change your liblist too still say blabhblahblah_linux.... is taht right?

Follow copying and server config, you don't need to do the top stuff (and ignore the FTP crap)

This is the problem I ran into, which is why I told you to post here, I was hoping maybe you would do something different that would make it not crash :/

I'm not sure what to tell you from here :( :(

Hmmm for me it looks like you've installed the whole thing into the ! false! directory
the addon folder should be
at ..../steam/steamapps/username/counter-strike/cstrike/

because if you have a gamedll called dat doesn't exist the game wont start, it will just shut down.

so what do you suggest

i'd suggest to install the whole thing right:
into your real cstrike folder and not into a "fake/wrong/false" one.

/E: i hope i's understandable ^^'

what do you mean a "fake" folder? You're confusing me

Posted: Mon Feb 27, 2006 2:50 pm

may i should have called it a "false/wrong" folder not a "fake" folder (i'll edit this)
because he's installed the whole mod into the wrong one

Ahhh I just noticed where he put it :P

TEmplar put the fiels in:

c:\program files\steam\steamapps\[email protected]\counter-strike\cstrike\

Assuming c:\program files\steam\ is where you installed steam
