• A 32 bits operating system
• 128 Mb / 1Gb swap
• A single CPU/core machine (virtualization is advised). Please see here to grab a 32 bits Wheezy Xen image for instance.

• Copy all required files and decompress them

cd /your_halflife_directory
tar xvfz hlds_l3016.tar.gz
tar xvfz cs_beta52.tar.gz

• Apply nowon patch (to be able to start server with C class address behind nat) :

cd /your_halflife_directory
./hlds_l.3016.nowon.sh

In /your_halflife_directory/cstrike/server.cfg modify the settings you need. Now you can launch the server with the following :

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/your_halflife_directory/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
cd /your_halflife_directory/
/your_halflife_directory/hlds_l -game cstrk61 +exec server.cfg +ip 192.168.1.2 -port 27016 +sv_lan 1 +map de_train +maxplayers 24 -heapsize 1024000

Default heapsize is 32Mb, it may not be enough for some maps. Raise it to 1 Gb.

hlds_nowon.c

• A 32 bits operating system
• A single CPU/core machine (virtualization is advised)

• Copy all required files and decompress them

cd /your_halflife_directory
tar xvfz hlds_l3104.tar.gz

• Compile hlds_nowon.c file and copy .so file in /your_halflife_directory

You may need to install following packages : g++-multilib

gcc -m32 -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -g -shared -ldl -o hlds_nowon.so hlds_nowon.c

In /your_halflife_directory/cstrike/server.cfg modify the settings you need. Now you can launch the server with the following :

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/your_halflife_directory"
cd /your_halflife_directory
LD_PRELOAD=/your_halflife_directory/hlds_nowon.so ./hlds_run +sv_lan 1 -port 27017 -game cstrk71 +ip 192.168.1.3 +maxplayers 24 +map cs_militia

One way to do this is to perform the following :

• start_cstrk52.sh

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/your_halflife_directory/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
cd /your_halflife_directory/
/your_halflife_directory/hlds_l -game cstrk61 +exec server.cfg +ip 192.168.1.2 -port 27016 +sv_lan 1 +map de_train +maxplayers 24 -heapsize 128000

• launch_cstrk52.sh

screen -A -m -d -S cstrk52 /home/hldsbeta/scripts/start_cstrk52

Simply run launch_cstrk52.sh to start your CS server.
