yeah, one of the last updates enables offline play. when u run the server use -insecure to stop the server trying to secure itself, there is also a flag to enable lan server but i cant remember what it is. Perhaps someone else can fill the gap

I ran the party last year and even though steam was out we played 1.5 because that is what our server was using. Now we are all steam based and I'm not sure if they even have 1.5 installed. Is there a way to play steam based cs at a lan party without internet access? Can clients play steam cs without net access? Do I need internet access at my LAN Party if we play cs 1.6? I'm trying to find a way to get even a simple dialup for the event, so at least we could auth and stuff, but I'd rather not have to worry about it. Do I have to worry about it? -- Matt _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
