Multiple SRCDS Installs
#1
Hi

Just a simple question: I need to run install several HL2DM servers, can I install one instance and then copy and paste that to another location, or must I install each one with HLDSUpdateTool?

I suspect its the latter, but don't want to take up all that time if its the former!

Cheers

Copy works.
But how different is each server?
Can you use the same instance but with minior tweaks to the startup line and server.cfg?

I've thought about that, but don't want the cfg folder to get cluttered up with all the .cfgs for all the servers. Theres already a fair few in there relating to admin functions etc, and I'd also want different variations of addons across the servers. I'd prefer the simpler route of one server, one folder, just for my little brains sake.

Glad to know copy works, thanks.

should work. If you are worried, run an update with -verify_all
