srcds.exe wont load even in command line :(
#1
Greetings to all.

In the past few days, I've planned to start a Day of Defeat:Source server with the hlds tool. The Hldsupdater installed and updated correctly, and it downloaded the files I would need for the server. When I try to start srcds.exe from the command line, the Computer just thinks for a second, and nothing happens. Here are my command line parameters:

C:\dod\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game "dods" -secure +map dod_colmar -autoupdate +log on +maxplayers 30 -port 27015 -ip mkbk.dtdns.net +exec server.cfg

I would appreciate any kind of help.

I don't think you can put a domain name as IP. Leave the IP blank, and use your domain manager with your host to do a cname to your IP at your server.

try this: C:\dod\orangebox\srcds.exe -console -game "dods" +map dod_colmar +maxplayers 30 -port 27015

All right, here's where I stand: It works with the -game dod switch, but I can't figure out what is the switch for Day of Defeat: Source. It doesn't work with the -game "dods" switch, nor the -game dods switch.
Please help me Sad

EDIT: Okay, sorry about that. I really do need the -game dod switch. Thanks for all the help everyone Smile Administrator can close this thread, it's solved Smile
