Installing TF2

[rs_brett]

Hey guys I installed tf2 today and trying to get it working with tcadmin. Here are my settings under supported games:

Name: Team Fortress 2

Short Name: TF2

Relative Exec: /orangebox/srcds.exe

Relative working dir: /

realtive user files directory c:/userfiles

 

Do I need to get a config for the game? Sorry really new with this.

C:\Gameinstalls\TF2 directory reads:

<hl2>

<orangebox>

installwhatev.blob

 

Thanks

Change your Relative working dir: to /orangebox

 

Change your Relative User Files directory to /

Still didn't work...do I need to get a config file how does that work?

click on preview command line under server settings

Copy that command line it gives you into a bat file

run the bat file from the desktop

Make sure the command line in the batch file is in this format, or it won't run.

 

srcds.exe command line

 

and that the batch file is in the same DIR as srcds.exe

actualy if your using preview it should look more like this

"C:\Userfiles\XXXXXXXXX\GameServers\TC71378234276840641837562\orangebox\srcds.exe -nocrashdialog -game tf -console +ip (..removed for client privacy...)"

 

Which will start from anywhere

 

 

P.S. -nocrashdialog is a troubleshooting aid on our side so may not be in your commandline.
