The Half-Life Dedicated Server Update Tool or HLDSUpdateTool is a tool to update GoldSrc and Source dedicated servers. New games using the SteamPipe content system, such as CS:GO, use SteamCMD instead.

Setting up

Downloading and running the server

Run the update tool with -command update -game <game>. Optionally, add -dir <path> to download to a custom location.

Here are some game names:

   dods - Day of Defeat: Source
   hl2mp - Half-Life 2: Deathmatch
   tf - Team Fortress 2
   cstrike - Counter-Strike 1.6
   czero - Counters-Strike: Condition Zero
   dmc - Deathmatch: Classic
   dod - Day of Defeat
   gearbox - Opposing Force
   ricochet - Ricochet
   tfc - Team Fortress Classic
   valve - Half-Life Deathmatch

Third-party Game Content

   redorchestra - Red Orchestra
   ship - The Ship
   sin - Sin Episodes
   darkmessiah - Dark Messiah
   garrysmod - Garry's Mod
                             



Warning.pngWarning:The HLDS Update Tool does not provide Lost Coast, even though SDK Base does. Multiplayer mods should either not use anything from Lost Coast, or include what they do use in their dedicated server download.

To run the game, see either the Half-Life Dedicated Server or Source Dedicated Server page for more information.
