According to the official game and player statistics from STEAM, the number of players for Counter-Strike: Source has dropped drastically while the latest Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is the 2nd most played STEAM game after Dota 2. The combination of STEAM players from CS1.6 with CS:S merely takes up 10% of CS:GO. This clearly shows that Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is currently the more popular game in the Counter-Strike series.

Installing and running a dedicated CS:GO server is not difficult while the most challenging task is actually getting enough players to join and play in your server as long as possible or else it would be an empty server without players. One potential way to attract more players to your server is to accept (pirated) non-steam players because the Setti Masterserver statistics shows that there are more CS1.6 and CS:S non-steam players than the legitimate Steam players.

In this article, we’ll show you how to download and install a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive server in Windows.

After installation, you can proceed to configure it to accept non-steam players.

Downloading and Installing a Dedicated Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

1. Download SteamCMD GUI and extract the ZIP file after finished downloading.

2. Run SteamCMD GUI.exe

3. Click on the Download SteamCMD button located in Tools.

4. After it’s finished downloading SteamCMD, click on the folder icon located beside the Download SteamCMD button and extract steamcdm.zip file.

5. Click on the Browser button for the SteamCMD path and select the folder where SteamCMD is extracted to.

6. At Server Configuration, click on the drop down menu and select Counter-Strike: Global Offensive or Counter-Strike: Source.

7. Make sure Login as Anonymous checkbox is selected.

8. Click on the Browser button for Server Path. It is best to set it as C:srcds.

9. Make sure the Validate Files checkbox is ticked and finally click the Update/Install button.

10. A command prompt window will open and SteamCMD will automatically start downloading the necessary files. The download will take a while to complete.

When you see a message that says “Success! App ‘740’ fully installed”, that means SteamCMD has finished downloading the necessary files to run a dedicated Counter-Strike: Global Offensive server. You can now close the command prompt window. It is actually sufficient to start a CS:GO server from the Run Server tab in the SteamCMD GUI application. First select the path of the downloaded files such as C:srcds, then choose Counter-Strike: Global Offensive or Source from the drop down list, select a map, set an RCON password and click Run.

If you’d like to allow non-STEAM users to join your CS:GO server, you’ll need to perform additional steps below. Currently there are only 2 STEAM emulators which are LumaEmu and RevEmu that can turn your Source Dedicated Server into Non-Steam. You should use either emulator and not both at the same time.

Installing RevEmu in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Dedicated Server

1. Download RevEmu 06.09.2014 Release and extract with an archiver that supports .7z format.

2. Go to the server folder from the extracted RevEmu 06.09.2014 Release and copy rev.ini to the folder where srcds.exe resides. It should probably be in C:SRCDS

3. Visit this webpage, scroll right to the bottom and download the latest RevEmu release.

4. Extract the latest RevEmu release that you’ve downloaded. Copy Steam.dll, steamclient.dll and the Steam folder from the latest RevEmu release to C:SRCDSbin. You may overwrite the original steamclient.dll file.

5. From the latest RevEmu release, go to csgoplatform and copy all the files to C:srcdsplatform

6. You can now run the server like normal using the SteamCMD GUI application and your server should accept non-steam players. If for some unknown reason you are unable to get RevEmu to work with your Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Dedicated Server, then try LumaEmu from the steps below. Make sure you’ve removed RevEmu before trying LumaEmu.

Installing LumaEmu in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Dedicated Server

1. Visit this webpage and download the latest version of LumaEmu from the attachment at the first post. You may need to download using Internet Explorer because Firefox and Chrome blocks all files from the website.

2. Extract the downloaded LumaEmu file using an archiver that supports RAR format.

3. Open the extracted LumaEmu, go to x86 folder and copy the steamclient.dll file to C:srcdsbin directory.

4. Go back one one level up to LumaEmu main folder and copy LumaEmu.ini to C:srcds.

5. Run the server using the normal command line or alternatively from the SteamCMD GUI Run Server tab.

Important Notes:

1. If non-steam players are unable to join the patched server and receive the message “STEAM validation rejected”, there is a very important registry key that you may need to remove. This is especially true if Steam is installed on the server because the registry string value is recreated whenever Steam runs to make sure that it is using the original untouched steamclient.dll rather than the patched steamclient.dll. To remove the SteamClientDll string value from registry, simply download the pre-made .reg file from the link below and run it each time before starting the server.

Download .REG File to Remove SteamClientDll String

Alternatively, you can also manually delete the SteamClientDll registry string from:

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareValveSteamActiveProcess

2. Both server and client must be running the same version in order for the client to connect to the server. If the server has been updated but the client still runs an older version, the client will see the following error message “Server is running a newer version, client version 13477, server version 13478” in the console.

3. It is common to see the message “Your server is out of date. Please update and restart” in the server’s console when the server is updated but still using an older version of RevEmu. The only solution is to wait for RevEmu to get updated and then install it on the server for the message to go away.

4. If your server is rejecting non-steam players with the message “Server only accepting connections from game lobby”, type sv_lan 1 in the server console to fix this.

5. Unfortunately a Source Dedicated Server does not support uPNP. So if you are connected through a router, you will need to manually configure your router to forward port 27015 for both TCP and UDP to allow players from the public Internet to connect to your server. You will have to refer to your router’s manual in order to setup port forwarding. Once you’ve done that, run the Counter-Strike: Source server and test the port forward to make sure that port 27015 can be found open on the Internet.

Thanks Raymond for the info. I like to play CS Source that I’ve downloaded from DigitalZone. It’s a hassle to find a server sometimes.

Started as a mod for Half-Life, now it’s got its own full life. Building and editing maps turned out to be no less fun than killing each other on premade maps. So now this mod is a game by itself, encouraging more and more players to use their creativity. It can even be called “metagame” because creating new add-ons and item collections for it has become a self-sufficient art.

Builder’s Paradise

Looking very close to Valve games like Half-Life, Garry’s Mod is not about passing through with a mission or reaching a certain goal. It’s about building your world using the game’s physics.

Your main tool is Physics Gun. It is used to create the object you select, position it, rotate if necessary, and place on the map. Select it from the list and then aim and shoot to place it right there. Beware: if you place an object in an inappropriate place, it may behave unexpectedly, but according to physics. For example, put it in the midair, and it will fall down.
Another tool has a simple name of Tool Gun. It’s used for the transformation of objects or creating combinations. You can create interactive buttons, so the scene you build becomes more interactive.

The list of objects you can insert is really enormous. Some are imported from games based on the Source engine, and some have been created by players’ community and organized into collections. There are NPC’s, ragdoll objects, various items or actions (like explosions). All of them can interact considering their parameters, and sometimes it’s very unexpected and even funny.

Like the original games. GMod supports multiplayer mode. No wonder Garry’s Mod has become a platform for creating its own inner games and contests. The most prominent are Trouble in Terrorist Town (a Mafia-like game), Prop Hunt (virtual hide-and-seek), Hunger Games (a tribute to the famous series), and different role-playing game modes, from serious to parody, including DarkRP, PoliceRP, StarWarsRP and so on. There are more and more of them, so you can easily combine the joy of creation with traditional game modes.

There are even add-ons and secondary mods developed by the community. One of them (Wiremod) adds a lot of electronic devices you can construct and use right within your GMod scenes. It’s hard to imagine how long Garry’s Mod review would be if mentioning them all.

Though the developer of the original version, Garry Newman, has mentioned the potential sequel, it probably will never be released, or (if it ever is) will have no common base with the current GMod. So the original one is here to stay. In 2018 the community is still growing, and the add-ons are available in Steam where Garry’s Mod download is available as well.

Looks and Sounds Half-Alive

There’s no surprise the environment in Garry’s Mod looks much like that of Counter-Strike or Half-Life: it’s been built upon the same engine. In 2018 graphics may seem a bit dated, but after Minecraft, it shouldn’t sound bad.

By the way, on sounds. The game has a lot of different sounds for different modes, and some of them are too funny to be taken seriously; others intend to copy real events or objects but are way too simple, not even cartoonish. They do their job, though, and sometimes make the game even more surrealistic.

You can create videos from this game for different purposes. It may be the simulation of some famous movie, show or real life episode; a model of an incident made without real filming and acting; some funny standalone video. Yes, it takes some artful approach, but it’s the place where your creativity is wanted.

Garry’s Home

Being initially made for Windows only, by 2018 Garry’s Mod has been ported to Mac OS X and Linux. Any mobile or console ports are not even expected.
Not being standalone, Garry’s Mod game requires at least one another Source-powered game. Pdf combining reinforcement learning with a multilevel modeling. In fact, you’ll have to buy two games, and chances are that the additional one will be left and abandoned soon, used only as an object base for GMod. And not even the only one: there are various downloadable collections.

So What’s That

Garry’s Mod is a perfect place to unleash your creativity, and it’s not so expensive, even keeping in mind that you’ll have to have one more game to provide the engine and the first objects. It’s infinitely replayable, and if you like construction games, it will bring the endless fun.

The fun gets even bigger if you’re a designer or a programmer. Then you can create your own objects (or objects set) and make them available for other users. This is a subject of some contests around GMod. But even if you’re not, you only benefit from this option by accessing more good and miscellaneous content.
Garry’s Mod is more a lifestyle than the game. It’s the perfect variant for those who as a child preferred disassembling toys to simply playing. This is the toy that only gets better being disassembled and reassembled with creativity.
