New CSS!!

[AJK2408]

Hi,

 

As we all may have the OLD CSS installed on our remote servers - Is there a way of BATCH updating all CSS servers? in one go? - with the new CSS files?

[dimitrifrom31]

is anything changed in server side cuz I did steam update on server it ran well but now I cannot connect (invalid steam key size) neither I can add the server to favorites.

 

Gona try with "beta" server now

[AJK2408]

Yes, the directory and a few files have changed i believe - all clients need to update - once servers are updated the clients will be able to connect to servers!

There was a client and server update don't forget to update your clients..

[AJK2408]

Any help back to the topic?

[dimitrifrom31]

well thx but my client is up to date, still I cannot seem to be able to connect to my own servers. Gona try to re-update now.

 

Was more thinking about a possible command line change or w/e

[dimitrifrom31]

use the batch update tool from TCA or create a game update

 

edit : servers must need some change in command line or w.e so dont update all your servers if you didnt make sure they can be joined

in ur TCA, just have a look.

 

However servers are not running properly after update, something HAS to be edited, just dont know what yet.

 

The servers start and you can see they are online but they cannot be joined with updated client. Must be smth with cmd line, trying to get the info

[AJK2408]

Okay, so i wont actually do it yet. If you can let us know asap! Thanks!!!!!!

[dimitrifrom31]

looks like that in fact steam updates are failing, gota keep trying until you get proper files...

 

Well Ima keep updating and try again and again, if any1 can upload "touched files" for TCA users that would be great.

Looks like you need to change commandline to the OB now.

Looks like you need to change commandline to the OB now.

 

 

It is the same as the previous CS:S command:

Windows

Code:

 

hldsupdatetool -command update -game "Counter-Strike Source" -dir <path-to-directory>

 

 

Looks like not else I assume they would have mentionned it too

[AJK2408]

Where is the offical STEAM Forum for the update? with like the new command line etc..

Your renting servers yet you haven't a clue how to update them or what the difference is AJK2408?

 

It's an entirely different game, the exe is in a different path, whole new file structure, and changes to the commandline as the tick is firmly set at 66 with no option to run 33 or 66 tick. There are dozens and dozens of new cvars for it as well from the old source engine or only about a dozen or so from the last cssbeta previous to this release.

 

Zblock seems to run just fine thus far but all other mods have been nullified that I've looked into.

 

Easiest thing that worked for our purposes was to update our install and ask our customers to reinstall via tcadmin or we would do it for them. All servers were updated in no time thereafter and everyone playing.

 

A batch update leaves the old mess behind with many mods that customers were running and was bound to cause confusion so we went the easiest or laziest route for us and the cleanest route for our customers.

 

Sorry, haven't tested Metamod and Sourcemod as of yet and thought I had better notate that.

Hi,

 

Of course i know how to update them, as i said i havent came across mass updating them as valve havent produced a big update like this before. I do know the difference is actually. -

 

Also to confirm are we using the old command line?

[dimitrifrom31]

MM/SM should work (just saw a few servers with them).

 

Idk about mani orangebox version, I assume it should too.

 

Freaking update finally started but is so damn slow

[studeggle]

MM/SM run without any problems.
