Hi I have a problem running srcds.
It used to run fine on my PC however I tried it yesterday and it didn't work...ran hldsupdatetool which updated everything...still didn't work.
So I removed everything and did a clean install following the instructions exactly as on the srcds tutorial page, however the problem still persists.
By double-clicking on srcds.exe I get the GUI up and that works fine, however any attempt to use a command line ie. run through the console, nothing happens.
I have tried using the Run... box (C:\srcds\srcds.exe -console -game "Counter-Strike Source" +map de_dust2 -maxplayers 12 -autoupdate) and tried varying this but simply nothing happens.
I have also tried running cmd.exe, then doing cd C:\srcds, and then running the srcds -console....and when I do this simply nothing happens, it just gives me another prompt, no error or anything.
As I say, GUI runs fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom Ayres
