Issues setting up TF2 server.

[cerulean86]

Sorry for asking a noob question but I'm having some problems with setting up a TF2 server using this guide.

I am on step three.
"Now you need to download the files for your dedicated TF2 server.
To download the dedicated TF2 server, use this script in a .bat file:"

now here is a screen cap of what I'm doing and the error, aswell as the the files it's placing into my HLServer folder.

Running the code.


HLServer folder


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
