Steam update guide/manual

Is there somewhere which explains how the tcadmin steam upfdate thing works...

 

 

 

I have my steam account settings in and I also have CSS configured and ready to go, but not sure how it works when an update is available. Do I still need to download the update, or does the software do it etc...

You will need to configure two settings within the system first.

 

 

 

1. In System Settings>Steam Update Settings. this is pretty much pre-filled for you. You do not need to include login info any longer. The updatetool does not need it any longer.

 

 

 

2. In System Settinngs>Supported Games>Counterstrike, you will need to configure the gametype. In your case put cstrike i the field, and check the permissions boxes to set what access you want to allow.

 

 

 

lastly, you will need to drop a copy of the HLDSUpdatetool.exe in the following folder on all machines, (both master and remote)

 

 

 

C:\Program Files\TCAdmin COntrol Panel\Monitor

 

 

 

Once you are finished, you can simply login to the panel and click the STEAM Update icon. Make sure you have pop-up blockers disabled for the site, and off it goes.

Thx, I'll give it a go...

I assume 'cstrike' is for plain Counter Strike. And I should put "Counter-Strike Source" for CSS? Same as you do when you run it manually..

[ECF]

Correct. For CS Source you should put...

 

 

 

Counter-Strike Source

 

 

 

**Note - You do not have to put the " marks in the field. The system puts them in for you.

Cool, a server is being set up to test as we speak.

 

I'll let you know how I get on.

OMG...The steam update is slicker than the soles of michael schumacher's slippers....

 

 

 

In fact I've seen oil with a rougher texture!
