Synergy Config File

[JasonF]

I was able to create the game and it queried with TCAdmin. I did not go in game to test it though.

Half-Life 2 - Synergy.txt

What is the easiest way to acquire the HL2 files required for the server to work?

 

I did it the long way and it sucked.

[ECF]

Use the hldsupdatetool

[Tayzer]

The HLDSUpdateTool does not supply the required HL2 files. The documentation states that you need to extract them from steam cache files.

 

Also, is this a 10 slot maximum mod? I cannot take it beyond 10 slots.

It may be one of those pay for mods I guess. Honestly haven't looked at it. Maybe Jason has some more insight.

[JasonF]

Synergy requires some local files for the game server to work in addition to the the server files. Here is the docs on installing it and which files are needed. This comes out to be a HUGE file once done, 5.1 GB compressed.

Thanks. The instructions are very poor.

 

Having searched for some of the GCF files it appears I dont have a copy of them.

[JasonF]

They are located in the following folder:

 

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps

[Tayzer]

Yeah,

 

I located all the ones i needed bar the source 2007 named GCF files which I dont appear to have.

Make sure you have installed and run HL2/EP1/EP2. They are there though, and huge when extracted.

Does this game not work directly from hl update tool?

It's in the list and should update if spelled correctly.

Yeah of course it does. I was just confused by the earlier posts in this thread.
