Pakistan ** Fulltime ** Server
Counter Strike 1.6 dedicated server installation on Windows XP tutorial -=X.A=-
In order to install a Counter Strike 1. 6 dedicated server, you need :
a.Windows XP, processor 1000 ghz, memory 256 ram
b. Connexion to internet
c. 300 - 400 MB free space on disk
You shall have to follow a few steps :
1. Connect to the internet
2. Download click here the CS 1.6 Server Creator installer and unzipp it anywhere on disk.
3. Create an new directory on your disk and name it HLDS . It can be named anyhow but we shall use HLDS because it`s classic .
4. Now doubleclick on installer.exe and when the selection window appeares you select the new directory HLDS . Hit OK and wait a few moments . A blue window will appear on screen displaying the scroll of the installation . At this point the installer downloads and installs all the server`s components in your HLDS directory. It can take some time to do it, depending on the internet connection , so have a little pacience .When the installer finishes his work , check out the HLDS directory and see if it has approximativly 315 MB .If it has , then everything it`s ok and if it hasn`t 315 MB you`ll have to repeat this step . Open the HLDS directory ; it should look like this
Now open the cstrike folder , that should look like this
5. Next step is to set the server up for accepting non steam clients . In order to do that download you can use one ofe these methods:
5.1 Rcommended - Use Dual protocol method (47+48). Download Dproto 0.4.1+Fix.exe, double click it and choose as installation folder, the main directory of your server (HLDS). Then go toHLDS\cstrike\addons\metamod, open plugins.ini and edit this line there:
win32 addons\dproto\dproto.dll
5.2 The old swds.dll No Stream patcher. Download it fron this link . Double click the exe and chose as installation folder, the main directory of your server (HLDS).
If you want a Stem Only dedicated server, just skip this step !
6. Next step is to configure te server.cfg in order to make your server work on the internet . Go toHLDS\cstrike folder and open server.cfg with Wordpad or Notepad. Deleeverithing and paste this:
// server name
hostname "Pakistan ** Fulltime ** Server "
// rcon passsword
rcon_password "______---_______"

8. No go to HLDS\cstrike\liblist.gam , open it with Notepad or Wordpad and add this line:gamedll "addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll"
9. In order to turn the server on, create a shortcut of hlds.exe file on your desktop and double click it. Edit the Server Name and chose your map, port and RCON Password and click Start Server. Thehlds.exe file is located inside your main directory (HLDS).
The installer automatically installed Amx Mod X 1.8.1 on your server. Amx Mod X helps you to administrate your server ( change maps, set up cvars, kick players) and shows the game statistics .
To see if it runs properly go to the server console and type meta list . If the message recived is:
AMX Mod X - RUN
..then everything it`s OK.
CS SERVER LAG SETTING And Server Setting
After installing Windows xp I noticed a slight increase in network latency in several online
games. It wasn’t a big deal – I’m talking 200-300ms, but this is on a connection that was reliably < 100ms in the past. Beyond the obvious settings in Windows or on your router, here’s a list of tweaks that may help quite a bit. It involves disabling Nagle’s algorithm, also commonly known as TCP no delay, which is basically an optimization of network traffic that tries to reduce overall packet volume but can cause extra latency in the connection. This should work on Windows 7 or Vista, though the same principle can probably applied to other operating systems as well.
From a command prompt (usually in All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt) run “regedit”
Browse toHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
Browse the items under interfaces until you find one that has an IPAddress entry matching the network interface you want to affect (typically LAN IP addresses start with 192.168 or 10.0); note that if your IP address is automatically assigned by a DHCP server you may need to look for a matching DhcpIPAddress instead of IPAddress
Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TcpAckFrequency”
Right-click the new TcpAckFrequency value and select Modify, enter 0“ 1 ? (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TCPNoDelay”
(note that TCP is all uppercase this time – that’s intentional)
Right-click the new TCPNoDelay value and select Modify, enter 0 “ 1 ? (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
Verify that both TcpAckFrequency and TCPNoDelay now show up in the adapter’s property list with types REG_DWORD and values 0×00000001 Resatrt u r System Exitregedit and reboot (reboot is necessary for the changes to take effect!)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TCPNoDelay” 0×00000001
This decreased my ping in most games from 200-300ms to 50-60ms, which matches the latency I would see via a tracert to the game’s server.
cs 1.6 bandwidth rates settings
This handy little chappy will calculate the recommended number of slots your HLDS or SRCDS server can run with rates, as recommended by Drek.
All calculations are directly from Drek's guidelines "setting rates for small home servers" (formerly "running a lag free server"), but since nobody can be bothered to read his highly useful and well structured advice, I have built this.
This script should work in IE/Opera/Firefox now. Thanks to pizzahut for help on getting it to work in Firefox. Rates calculator
Application Throughput
HLDS: GoldSrc engine games
SRCDS: Source engine games Enter your upload speed or download speed, whichever is smaller:
(kilobits per second)
5% of your throughput will be left free, so 0 kbps will be used
Unsure? Take a speed test
Hardware Recommendation
MHz CPU with core(s)
MB of physical RAM
0 player(s) max recommended
player(s) including reserved slots
sv_minrate 0
sv_maxrate 0
sv_minupdaterate 0
sv_maxupdaterate 0
Still experiencing bad lag after using the recommended settings?
If you are still having problems with unusually high or unstable pings, lower your sv_maxupdaterate one at a time until your pings are stable and as low as they are going to be. You shouldn't have to lower it any further than half the number I gave above.
If your pings are low and stable with a full server, try raising your sv_maxupdaterate one at a time until your pings go wonky, then lower it back to the last good number.
Not got a clue what to enter? Here's some help.
This is pritty much it. Have Fun !
