скачать сервер для тим фортресс 2

Now we have to run the steam client, which will check to see if it is currently up to date and download a whole bunch of updates. This will take some time.

This will run the tool. It will present you with a license agreement, type “yes” and hit enter to proceed. It will install steam into the current directory.

This will download hldsupdatetool.bin to your current directory. Next we need to give this file execute permissions and the run it.

wget http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.bin

The installation of srcds is handled entirely by the hldsupdatetool created by Valve. This simple little tool will handle the download and installation of your base Source Dedicated Server. The first step in this process is to get the hldsupdatetool.

Installing Source Dedicated Server

Also, if you’re running a good firewall (as you should be) remember to poke a hole for port 27015.

One extra step that you might want to do is to create an account for running the srcds process. This isn’t at all required, but it is good practice. The standard practice seems to be creating and account called “hlds” and using that account to run the process.

For a basic system set up walk through please use Part 1 of my . Everything in that article is relevant to this guide. The only thing that I should add is be sure not to run SSH on port 27015, since that is the port your Source server will be running on.

The server will require a huge amount of bandwidth. For a 24 player TF2 server with voice enabled running at max capacity 24/7 expect 800+ gigabytes of bandwidth per month. I regularly see the upload reach 3 Mb/s and download hovers at around 1.5 Mb/s.

Depending on what game you’re running and what settings are applied srcds can use a good amount of processor and RAM. You really need at least 512 MB of RAM and a good modern processor to run a TF2 server properly. A gig to two of RAM will be optimal for running a couple instances. To my knowledge the srcds software is not multi-threaded so you wont see any benefits from a dual processor machine.

You may see references to “hlds” in places, hlds stands for Half-Life Dedicated server. This was the name of the old version of srcds (aka Gold Source) that ran the original Half-Life and Counter Strike. Don’t let it confuse you, the name is still used in places but (in this article) it is the same thing as srcds.

The first thing that I should point out is the the srcds software is only available in 32-bit. So if you are setting up a server just for Source games then be sure to use the 32-bit version of Ubuntu. You will not gain anything by having the 64-bit version.

First off a few notes about the software:

This article will give you a walk though guide for installing and configuring srcds on Ubuntu. I am writing specifically about TF2 here, but much of this information will apply to other Source games such as Counter Strike: Source, Left 4 Dead, and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch.

All Valve multiplayer games run off of the same base server software, Source Dedicated Server (SRCDS). They build a version for Windows, Linux and Mac so you can run it on whatever system you happen to have available. In my case I had Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, which is a great operating system for any server.

I recently decided that I wanted to set up a dedicated server running Team Fortress 2, the very entertaining multiplayer first-person shooter game by Valve.ВP I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to install and configure a server that runs exactly the way I want.
