[ELITE COMBINE]

Its a long and complicated process to do, and I very much doubt anyone is going to walk you through it step by step. Your best bet is to read the docs, which you can find here and come back and ask for help when you get stuck.

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

ok. Somone on a server told me its a pain to download that stuff. Is it safe for your pc?

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

I started my server without the admin stuff to see what its like. But i waited 2 hours and no one connected. And when i looked at the server list for mine it did not show up! why is that???:|

sv_lan 0

or open certain ports.

And the browser filters away your own IP.

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

what??? so how do i keep my server open? i mean it shouldn't erase it if somone is on it.

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

What does sv_lan 0 do open the server for players to come on??

 

[Rapstah]

You can't see your own server on the server list, and sv_lan stops the server from being a lan and opens it up for online play.

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

so in other words people can see my server? And i just type sv_lan 0 to open it up?

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

Also I noticed i can use cheats on my server like noclip and such others but can anyone else use em or just me? IF so i wanna make it were only I can use the cheats.

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

I give up my servers never show up. Ive typed all the commands like sv_lan 0 and all that other stuff but it never shows up. MY friends can't even find it.;(

 

[Xendance]

sv_lan 0 in the server console?

I think if you have wireless you can't host. Same problem here, want to start a server and test my maps with friends but cant, so it makes it a lot harder because now I have to manually send them all the .bsp

 

[ELITE COMBINE]

So I have to be dirrectly hooked up to the internet cord? I use a wireless router. O well:bounce:

I think HL is a pretty good online game..im new to it, but i think some of the maps and servers are totally hillarious and do good for the games..but man its too much work to host a proper server..yourself.

hats off to you guys for doing it all though..
