UPDATE! APRIL-3-2024 Old video and I'm busy with life so I can't help much. It even took me years to reply but anyway yhis guide should still work. Then, again, there have been some issue regarding setting up INTERNET SERVER. Mainly it is "Connection failed after 4 tries..." Basically, the issue here is that the port you are using (port 27015) is close on your IP Server. So to fix that you basically need to go to your router settings > port forward and enable the port there. Port forward settings depends on your router so just fill some info there. To check if your port is working and accessible go to: www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and specify port 27015 Afterwards , launch srcds. use this following parameter: srcds.exe -game cstrike -autoupdate -port 27015 -secure -tickrate 100 +map de_dust +sv_lan 0 +maxplayers 32 Lastly, if your friend or anyone wants to connect to your server then give them your IP Address and port and then let them open their counter-strike source game and then open console and type: connect IpAddress:Port (for example: connect 192.168.1.1:27015) Note: If your port isn't accessible , it is most likely blocked by your ISP. Contact them for enabling your port. You can use this guide to forward your port: www.overclock.net/threads/port-forwarding-css.341254/#:~:text=All%20you%20need%20to%20do,triggering%2C%20or%20Port%20Range%20Forwading.

it works thanks! I and my friends already played cs 1.6 and made our own dedicated server so this is not new, thanks! Be sure to to check his update if you're to planning to play with your friends this quarantine! You're the best dudeee
Double clicking opens a GUI of srcds.exe and via cmd/powershell opens a console, with console you can do much more i think base from my experience and can see server logs that can be used for troubleshooting.
After following the instructions I was able to start the server with no issues. Now that I have shut down the server and restarted the computer, which steps do I need to perform in order to start the server again? Thanks a lot for the video by the way, by far the most straightforward one.
Since you're done just do the things in the video starting from 2:58 to be able to launch srcds If you want to update the server just follow the video from start. That's all.
@@EmanMarcaida Thanks a lot. How often should I update the server? Or do I only do that if I get some "Cannot connect, try updating server files" message?

Hi, if it's about running the server you can use counter strike source server launcher from here: emandev.github.io/css-sl/ It can launch the server without opening powershell and any of the other stuff. And about updating the server you can run it once per week only by doing the video again or doing the commands.

Hello Sir, first of all many thanks for your video that was very clear. i have a question for you. I am actually playing Counter-Strike source with my friend. We managed on one of our computer to do all what you have done on the video to finally make appear in the source dedicated server the option "Counter strike Source". We are playing by internet because we are too far away and we can't manage to make the server visible for everybody. My friend managed to create the server and to play on it but I can't access it with the IP address he sent me. We tried the sv_lan 0 and to define the UDP Prt as 27015 but i still can't see the servers he has created. Do you have any idea ?

@@z3ko8012 Sorry for the late reply but here goes. First you need a server.cfg to properly customize your Counter-Strike: Source Server. Now, to do that what you need to know are the following. 1. You must have a server cfg. 2. You must put your server.cfg into your cfg folder located in your Counter-Strike: Source Dedicated Server folder > cstrike > cfg 3. Once you've done that you have your preferences loaded. Now once you launch your server (or srcds.exe) type in the console of whatever commands you want. To create a server.cfg search up on google "css server config maker" I personally use Dodbits's server.cfg maker

Also you can change the map (de_dust2) to any map you want. This should solve your problem.
You need server.cfg for that. Server.cfg has configurations for server name, server password, and so on. You can search google for dodbits server.cfg maker. After creating one, put it on your cstrike/cfg directory.
create a server.cfg using "dodbit's server cfg maker" and configure the server base from your preferences then save it to cstrike>cfg folder and launch srcds

UPDATE! APRIL-3-2024
Old video and I'm busy with life so I can't help much. It even took me years to reply but anyway yhis guide should still work.
Then, again, there have been some issue regarding setting up INTERNET SERVER.
Mainly it is "Connection failed after 4 tries..."
Basically, the issue here is that the port you are using (port 27015) is close on your IP Server.
So to fix that you basically need to go to your router settings > port forward and enable the port there.
Port forward settings depends on your router so just fill some info there.
To check if your port is working and accessible go to:
www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ and specify port 27015
Afterwards , launch srcds. use this following parameter:
srcds.exe -game cstrike -autoupdate -port 27015 -secure -tickrate 100 +map de_dust +sv_lan 0 +maxplayers 32
Lastly, if your friend or anyone wants to connect to your server then give them your IP Address and port
and then let them open their counter-strike source game and then open console and type:
connect IpAddress:Port (for example: connect 192.168.1.1:27015)
Note: If your port isn't accessible , it is most likely blocked by your ISP. Contact them for enabling your port.
You can use this guide to forward your port: www.overclock.net/threads/port-forwarding-css.341254/#:~:text=All%20you%20need%20to%20do,triggering%2C%20or%20Port%20Range%20Forwading.

why does this game can't be like Left 4 Dead 2 with easier ways to create servers to play with friends man, for real
hello, i followed you exact steps, everything is working but i dont get the console tab in the GUI mode, any idea why? and how to fix it?
verify the files by simply running the code app_update 232330 validate
otherwise you can use the command line interface
Hello, good video, do you know any procedure for Day Of Infamy?
None
@@EmanMarcaida Well
So, I can host the server and my friends are able to join. The thing is, I can't join. In fact, I can't join any server at all (including public servers) if my server is on. Do you know anything about this issue?
Nevermind, you need to change the clientport of either the server or your game by adding the launch option +clientport 27006
shift right click does not enable the options to launch in powershell etc.
Use command prompt. Also works for windows terminal.
When I try the gui command,it says operable program or batch file.what do I do?
Can you take a screenshot of it? I didn't encounter such issue.

Hi! I know this is kinda old but... I'm getting the "error reading aplication id"
I tried putting the rev.ini in the folder with srcds.exe but it don't work
download this: www.mediafire.com/file/e91lfl0bgi71thc/rev.ini/file
and paste in on your counter-strike source dedicated server folder
when i run steamcmd command it fails at the end with an error "!!! Fatal Error:Failed to load steam.dll".Can you please help me out?
Re-download steamcmd and put it on a different folder. Then launch it using the process in the video. Make sure you have stable internet at the time.
i can make it deathmatch with bots?
this also for the workshop maps problems? i downloaded a map and they told me failed to dedcated server what should i do ?
This should work for "any" map supported by counter strike source. I actually don't know what you are trying to specify but if you want to use community made maps download them and copy then paste them to cstrike > maps and then restart your server. Just make sure it's compatible with the game.
1 question. I can connect but my friend cannot do this (server is not responding) how to fix it?
Verify the integrity of server files by following the video again.
If it doesn't work read and follow the pinned comment. It has the same problem as your friend if I'm not mistaken.
does this work with any version ? (latest version)
Only latest / updated version of css
When I do the update validation it keeps timing out
It's probably your internet. Be sure to have stable connection during the process.
is this only lan? i want server that my friends can join even we are not on the same wifi

I have the same problem what did you do?
what did you do asshole?
what did you do??
make sure you guys are in the correct folder... i closed all the powershells (blue screens) that were opened.
went back to steamcmd\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Source Dedicated Server\ ..... in this folder i did shift+right click followed by these commands ...
1. cmd
2. srcds.exe -game cstrike -console
or srcds.exe -game cstrike if you want to use a GUI and not the console
Setmaster: Unknown command enable
Could not establish connection to Steam servers.
any ideas ?

Hello, I'm Brazilian and I had some problems with powershell, when I run the command STEAMCMD in powershell it gives the following error: KeyValues Error. Can you help me?
You don't have to use powershell, you can use the normal steam command provided on the official valve page
How do I open srcds.exe with "-console -game cstrike" but activating VAC and my Steam ID?
sorry for the late response; anyway here goes:
add -secure parameter to activate VAC (-insecure to deactivate VAC)
example: srcds.exe -console -game cstrike -secure
to add steamID you need to add a +sv_setsteamaccount
example: srcds.exe -console -game cstrike -secure +sv_setsteamaccount
you can get login token through here: steamcommunity.com/dev/managegameservers

go to your css dedicated server folder and delete steam_appid.txt
then follow the video again to verify files. If it doesn't work, it might be Valve's server or something else that I don't know.
you can use CMD or Powershell, either of the two works, just make sure the path is correct.

@@z3ko8012 Sorry for the late reply but here goes.
First you need a server.cfg to properly customize your Counter-Strike: Source Server.
Now, to do that what you need to know are the following.
1. You must have a server cfg.
2. You must put your server.cfg into your cfg folder located in your Counter-Strike: Source Dedicated Server folder > cstrike > cfg
3. Once you've done that you have your preferences loaded. Now once you launch your server (or srcds.exe) type in the console of whatever commands you want.
To create a server.cfg search up on google "css server config maker"
I personally use Dodbits's server.cfg maker
thank you! finally i can change server settings because i don't know console commands and i couldn't find them
i m have next problem,
my friends can't enter the server "lan servers are restricted to local clients (class c)"
@@z3ko8012 Restart the server and open srcds using this parameters.
srcds.exe -game cstrike -console -port 27015 +clientport 27005 -maxplayers 64 +map de_dust2 -autoupdate
If your friend still cannot join then on the console of srcds type sv_lan 0 or sv_lan 1 and check which helps. Also you can change the map (de_dust2) to any map you want. This should solve your problem.
hi again! another question, can i set a password to my server? and i can't edit server settings(money, time vs) . why?
You need server.cfg for that. Server.cfg has configurations for server name, server password, and so on. You can search google for dodbits server.cfg maker. After creating one, put it on your cstrike/cfg directory.
My dedicated server network is not changing from LAN TO INTERNET????
create a server.cfg using "dodbit's server cfg maker"
and configure the server base from your preferences
then save it to cstrike>cfg folder and launch srcds

@@puneetsrivastava2717 I did not use hamachi btw so I'm limited with stuff when helping you. However here are some steps you can use to be able to solve it. If number 1 doesn't work, move on to the next.
1. Update css server (Just follow the video again and it will update then validate the server files) - works most of the time
2. set sv_lan 0 or sv_lan 1 in your console (try which ever works, 0 for internet or steam server and 1 for LAN (Local)
4. Close srcds.exe and launch using this parameter: srcds.exe -game cstrike -console -port 27015 +clientport 27005 -maxplayers 64 +map de_dust2 -autoupdate
3. Refer to this: carmageddon.forumfree.it/?t=15461227
I haven't really tried hamachi but with thorough search you'll probably get a better solution.
