Srcds wont start up!
#1
If someone can help me, I'm trying to run a Garrysmod Server and when I try to get srcds running it don't start up.

I'll enter this command line in the run box and nothing will happen.
c:\srcds\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game "garrysmod" +map gm_construct +maxplayers 16 -autoupdate

If Someone could help me I would really really appreciate it!
Thanks,
Faceless

Try this:

Code:
c:\srcds\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game garrysmod +map gm_construct +maxplayers 16 -autoupdate

(don't use quotes)

also, use the -verify_all switch with hldsupdatetool.

I have the same problem.

I click on the shortcut and my mouse changes and changes back. Nothing.

I've done everything you said in the other posts but still nothing.

Do you have a boot up line? Or just hitting SRCDS.exe?

I got it working.
I had to copy the garrysmod folder into the orangebox folder and run the exe.

yeah, why is that if you use HLDS to download the game+content, it doesn't automatically put it in the right folder?
same thing if i want to add cstrike, TF2, HL2DM, and other content..
