How to make CounterStrike1.6 Server Listed/Visible to Others

How to make CounterStrike1.6 Server Listed/Visible to Others

This is a common problem among new administrators whose CS1.6 server aka HLDS doesn't show up in the Server List.

Download the Server_dll.zip file here or  Mirror 1  or Mirror2 or Mirror3 and extract them to your HLDS folder (i.e. folder above cstrike)

There is also an server.cfg file inside Server_dll.zip for you to give an idea how your server.cfg should look like. You may choose the same server.cfg so provided.

But dont forget to change the values of:

sv_maxrate

sv_maxupdaterate

fps_max 600

This issue can be easily resolved by adding few lines in your server.cfg file:

• Add these lines to server.cfg file, located in cstrike/ folder
