steam dll error
#1
Have a ? I went and created a srcds file in my c drive downloaded the hldsupdatetool did the cmd line thing intalled file from the counter strike source update in the C:srcds. So after that was done I went to create a short cut for srcds exe and I can't find that exe in the srcds folder. By the way I'm just following the instructions how to create a css server via steam forums. So I look around and find a srcds exe in my steamapps \myname\source dedicated server. I'm guessing this is the right one don't know may be someone here can tell me that..I put that on my desktop did the targetline showed in the steam forums. When I went to excute the icon I get a steam dll error just wanted to get some input on what the heck I'm doing wrong is this the wrong srcds exe I put on my desktop plz help thxs in advance.......

I'm using the console version not the gui I got my srcds exe finally had to do another update in console for some reason. So this is the problem now! I added the srcds exe to desktop added new target line provided by steam forums. So when I click on the icon it does nothing it looks like it might load up, and then it doesn't. This might be a stupid ?, but do I have to create a server cfg before this thing runs. It didn't say anything about creating this(via forums) or does hldsupdatetool create a default server config. Thats where I'm at right thxs for the response

yes.. you shouldmake a shortcut, the actual srcds.exe file needs to be in the server directory, if on the desktop you want an icon there, you have to make a shortcut to put there.
