Is this only to half life games?

I also use 2012 on one of my machines, its not starting because scrds does not work properly with 2012 unless you change the compatibility to 2007 for the application.

 

Try this:

 

1: Go to powershell and run regedit - > then in registry go to : HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows NoInteractiveServices (Change 1 to 0 and reboot to enable it. Then enable in services)

 

 

Add this script to your TCAdmin Config for the installation, there are two to put in. Name them what you like, you will need this for each config using SCRDS.

 

Script to add: Use on after create service

 

reg.exe Add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "%ThisService_Executable%" /d "WIN7RTM"

 

Script to add: Use on after delete service:

reg.exe delete "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "%ThisService_Executable%" /f

 

The above is information I found through the forums, I don't take credit but can share the information.

Odds are that HLDS has the same issues. So I suggest you try his fix anyway.

[oostwolder]

raizio

 

the fix from PCGamersportal is that same fix and same links that he gave for hlds

 

like copy paste

[PCGamersportal]

I believe it is the same solution, windows 2012 has compatability issues with half life stuff.

[oostwolder]

oke well i have most of it working with you fix but i dont know if it is your fix because i have done a steam update and after that the game works so i dont know if the fix works

 

now i have only a problem with half life condition zero

[PCGamersportal]

I'm pretty sure it is the fix, I have the same setup with 2012 server on one of my boxes as I had said, if you had downloaded the server files via steam in the beginning it would have been the most recent version when you first ran into the problem and the configs in TCAdmin for those games are solid.

 

Steam updates are common place, compatibility in windows server 2012 is a whole other ball game, and with some of the games you have to do a few hoops to get them working with the OS you are using.
