Dedicated server - How to?

[slave2game]

Ok I downloaded HLDSupdate and installed HL2mp with the update tool. Ran the dedicated server without any issues.

I extracted all the files from the two different Half-Life Deathmatch Source .gcf files, put them into a folder named hl1mp, place that hlmp folder in the same directory where I see hl2mp
Here is what the directories look like:
C:\hlds
hlds\hl1
hlds\hl2
hlds\orangebox
hlds\orangebox\hl1mp
hlds\orangebox\hl2mp
hlds\orangebox\scrd.exe

Then I created a srcds.exe shortcut from the srcds.exe in the orangebox folder and add -game hl1mp. Tried to boot it up and got nothing except an error.

see error here

I don't understand why the heck this game doesn't have a dedicated server available but there is no sense in complaining to valve about that. I just want to get this working. I see some servers in the server list... someone must have some info that is current.

Thanks

well you did a mistake thats why its not working.

first is half-life source and half-life deathmatch source is not orangebox mod.

so it cant be in orangebox folder.

paste the hl1mp folder here.

C:\hlds

when you paste hl1mp folder, so its like C:\hlds\hl1mp

or check my thread i think you dont know or you dont understand?
