Counter-Strike is one of the most popular first person shooters ever to hit store shelves. Creating your own server is another step on the way from an ordinary gamer to a professional CS player. And for some, their own server is an additional source of income.
It is necessary
- access to the Internet
- two computers
Instructions
Step 1
First, decide where you plan to install your future server. This can be your desktop computer, your own "server cabinet" or a specific site on the Internet. It should be noted right away that installing a server on a home PC is not very useful for getting profit. This option is worth considering if you need a game server for an amateur game. Download the game itself and a ready-made server for it. Extract the server archive to the folder with the Counter-Strike game installed.
Step 2
Find the users.ini file in the configs folder. Write the following commands in it: "NICK" "PASSWORD". NICK is your nickname, PASSWORD is the password for using your nickname. To obtain administrator rights, open the console in the game and enter in it: setinfo "_pw" "PASSWORD"; name "NICK".
Step 3
Ideally, the server should be located on a separate computer. Those. if you have at least two PCs, then install and configure the server on one of them, and play from the second. To quickly set up the server, it is recommended to download ready-made files with the.cfg and.ini extensions, as well as resort to using all kinds of ready-made mods and plugins.
