Create a Server
Using Docker
You can create a server using Docker by using my GitHub project. More informations on how to run it are inside the project.
Using Windows
If you desire hosting a server on Windows, you can create a batch file inside the HL1 folder (see example below)
Batch example: Hosting a CS Beta 1.1 server on cs_assault, using port 27015 (the default one) with a maximum of 16 players:
set MAXPLAYERS=16 set PORT=27015 set GAME=cstrk11 set MAP=cs_assault start hlds.exe -game %GAME% +maxplayers %MAXPLAYERS% +map %MAP%
