you misunderstand. He said to manually open a command prompt window, one that you can type any commands you wish, and it stays open after those commands are executed. Doing this so that after the server exits the window will still be open and you can see what happened.

Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error
well, you could always try redirecting output to a file, though I don't know if it'll help or work properly. Add a error.txt to the end of your command to attempt that. Should give you a new file called error.txt that hopefully contains something useful.

Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error
IIRC, this doesn't work because hlds still opens up it's own console window if run from a command/cmd window. Hlds is not a DOS application and does not run in a DOS shell. It is a win32 console application. Unlike bsp/rad/vis/etc, it opens up it's own console and runs in that. The only thing I've been able to do that helps is to quickly press Print Screen immediately before the console window closes. The timing is tricky but it should work. - Original Message - From: Clayton Macleod [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2005 11:19 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error you misunderstand.

Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 Error
Yup, just for you, cuz you like it rough. And the point is it is not a *DOS* shell, and there is no reason for a win32 console app to open a new console when it's already running in one. There is a big difference between a DOS shell in win9x and a command prompt/console in win2000-onward. On 7/1/05, m0gely [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Are you always this abrasive? It's a shell.

[hlds] RE: [hlds_linux] VAC2 Beta information
This is just another nudge, make sure to use -vacbeta on your HL1 servers. There will be a release in the next few weeks to enable VAC2 by default on servers (with the same command line options as VAC1). - Alfred Original Message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alfred Reynolds Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2005 3:05 PM To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com; hlds@list.valvesoftware.com; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds_linux] VAC2 Beta information As most of you know, VAC2 has been in beta for a few weeks. We're nearing release, but we need lots of servers to run the beta right now in order to complete our testing. VAC2 is a significant overhaul of the Valve Anti-Cheat system. Its release is going to be a major event in the community, so your help during the beta will be much appreciated. From experience, we know that the members of this mailing list will provide us with better feedback than we'll be able to get elsewhere. We need as many of you as possible to start running your servers with the VAC2 beta code turned on. Once you've started doing so, please send us any and all trouble reports by reporting them to this list. Instructions: The VAC2 beta functionality is already included in both the Source and HL1 dedicated server, just ensure you have the most recent update by running the hldsupdatetool. In order to turn it on, simply restart your server and add -vacbeta to your the command line. We're primarily dealing with connection issues at this point. This means that if you choose to run your server using the VAC2 beta, a small number of users could have trouble connecting to your server. We are particularly interested in hearing about any issues regarding connection problems. Things to watch for: - No Steam Logon errors reported by clients. If a user gets this consistently across a couple day period then get them to go to our support site for help. - steamclient.dll not found, server communication disabled. printed out on startup. For linux users make sure you have at least GLIBC 2.3.2 or above. You also need to allow outbound UDP traffic on port 27014 from your server. If you do have the correct GLIBC version or run under win32 then contact me to debug the problem.
