Not sure what I am missing

[josh09]

New user to SRCDS. Not a new user to port forwarding.

I got the server.cfg from the team fortess 2 server.cfg post. Only changed the server name for testing.

I run the command as srcds.exe -console -game tf

first of all is this correct? or am I missing something there?

I have all the proper ports forwarded and I know they are working.

It appears as if it is running but I cannot tell if it executed the server.cfg file. And it does not appear that it is conneceted.

This is all I get from the command when I run it. I have tried other games like left4dead and I get the same result. Probably something simple thanks for the help in advance.

You must set a map, otherwise it will not startup.
He's an example:

Code:

+map de_dust2

Just change to a map for the game you're using.

Or just startup like you do now, but just write into the console map de_dust2 - then it will load and the map will be de_dust2

That was all I was missing. Thank you.
