no srcds.exe for DOD Source Server

[chris22_25]

Well, this problem PLAGUED me all last night, so I wanted to report how to fix this problem in case you encounter it. The link for how to set up a DOD Source Server is quite good, and the thread is:

http://forums.srcds.com/showthread.php?tid=1799

Now, if you follow the directions like I did for c:\srcds\hldsupdatetool -command update -game dods -dir c:\srcds.

Please notice it is -game dod[s]! not dod. If you do -game dod instead of -game dods you won't see a srcds.exe file. That's the problem.

Maybe it's that I'm bad at following directions or what, but I had a real hard time finding others with this problem searching on the internet last night so I thought I'd post the solution.

Thanks for pointing that out, I neer set up a dod server before but when I do I know what awaits me.

I really hate it when valve makes the update line and the -game param values different for the same game.

yeah they should change the folder name to dods instead of just leaving it as dod which can be confusing if you have original day of defeat as well
