Hey guys, i have a BIG problem. I used to host a Dedicated server on my dedicated server box, which is running win 2003 Enterprise edition, has 4 P3 zeon 550s, and 4 gigs of ram. Anyways, after updating, the SRCDS.exe wont start! I figured it was mani, so i updated entirely to a new folder, clean without any mods, and it still wont start! Is anyone else having this problem, or is it just me? Please help, i want my server back up and running!

I had the same problem, add "-game cstrike" (without the speechmarks) to the command line in the SHORTCUT to srcds.exe
This should solve the problem.

No idea at all, I assume its something to do with DoD Source being released and its a way for srcds to verify the gametype.
Damn typical of the useless Steam support team not to bother telling anyone about it. In my opinion we pay our money for the game, the least they can do is to e-mail everyone with the changes that they make, it would stop a lot of angry threads on their forums.

insane thing is though, if your add the "-game" comment into your .bat it makes ABOLUTELY NO DIFFERENCE to how SRCDS and even HLDS initialises whilst using the GUI (I prefer it. NOOOB). Just try it, its stupid. add either of:
-game cstrike -game dod -game hl2dm And watch it "not" make a difference. Try it with HLDS. I wasted 30 minutes writing individual batch files as I tend to swap and change server games as much as maps (variety is the spice of life). A quick question about HLDS as well, what IS the "valve" server?. look in apps you get hldm cs dod ricochet and VALVE? Is this like the HLDS instance itsself, so what's HLDS then? My brain hurts. Chicken or egg.

Sweet, thanks guys, now i can finally get this thing back up and running! Do you know if MANI has been fixed? I cant run my main server cause it has mani on it, and it gives me an error after i start the server. Thanks again!

Mani made a temp fix for his mod about 7 hours after the initial buggy assed crap update from Steam, since then he has released 2 other versions (both of which work fine) the latest version is here:
