Multiple Server's

[VA7GFZ]

At the time, I am running a Counter Strike source dedicated server, I would like to run a Day of Defeat server. Should my Day of Defeat dedicated server go into a different folder than my counter strike source folder?

My Counter Strike server is located in this location C:\SRCDS, would my Day of defeat be fine in the same folder?

I once ran 3 servers on 1 install so it runs fine from the same folder. Just be sure to load the correct cfg on the right server

I think you can install another instance of the SRCDS altho i never tried.

Yea it would work fine as long as its a differnt "mod".
Now if it was 2 CStrike servers to one install yes you would have problems. Same would go for 2 DoD servers.
You can make multiple installs as long as you run the console mode.
If you have the space thugh I would probably make a seperate directory.
But thats just me.

That also works pretty good, never had trouble with it. I always run a public server and a test server, same install, same mod, everything just 1 other cfg and logfile

Well the only problem is that theres only 1 config file and if you arn't manualy runnning them then they look the same which can cause errors and if one has controll of a file it could be making it read only killing the other. When in the same mod...

You could use the same dir. Copy CS and name it something esle then use the startup -game <<NewCS>> And it would work fine. W/O wassting too mcuh.

You can run different cfg's for servers, it doesn't have to be the same one. For instance you can make server1 load server.cfg and make server2 load server2.cfg. This is how I do it and it works as if there were 2 installs
