Enabling Content

[Samusaaron3]

Hi, I was wondering how I would enable Lost Coast content for use on my server. I have the content folder where it should be, I just need srcds to use it.

Thanks.

Half Life: Lost Coast isn't ment too be used as a server.

It's simply just an extension of Half Life 2. You can't run a dedicated server, you can only use the "new game" button in your game.

(And there's neither no command too start it up with)

I don't intend to run a Lost Coast server, I just want the content to be enabled so that it can be used on a Garrysmod server.

Ohh, isn't it just too install Hl2dm? It has the same content?

There are some different items in Lost Coast that I would like available in Garry's Mod.

You will have to extract these manually since HL2:LC isn't a multiplayer game that can be downloaded with the SRCDS.

No one so far has answered my question. I have all of the content files, I just need to server to use them. When the server starts up and checks all of the content, it says "Lost Coast: Disabled"

All I want to know is how to make the server use the content files, which I already have placed in the correct directory.

Thank you.

how do you enable the other content for the the other games

I don't know, the others just worked.

Like I said, if you have the contents, you copy the complete mod folder in to the orangebox folder of the server.

If done correctly garrysmod LUA base will automatically detect the presence and enable the mod files.

I have all of the files in the orangebox folder. The srcds program just has the game disabled for some reason. I need to know how to tell the srcds program to try to use the content.

I think that would be a question specific for the garrysmod team since I don't know how their mod works.
The other games like CSS, HL2DM etc never use files from other mods so I have no idea how they do that on garrysmod.

Go to the Garry's Mod Forums to ask this question. It doesn't relate to SRCDS. Did you install the game in your Steam?
