Setting up an oc Server

This will take up alot of space right?

~40 GB (campaign ~28GB, srcds ~12 GB, OC ~1,22 GB) if you add anything from the stuff via hldsupdatetool to the campaign stuff (goldsource stuff excluded which would add another ~1,23 GB)

I'm no expert. But can't you all your steam games and then use that? Or just completely delete steam?

Shit. I meant delete! Can't you delete all your games and then use that space.

I'm interested to find out if OC is superior to other srcds servers for co-op games.

I have a dedicated server from AoWC that's already running Synergy, and I note that both mods use the same extra files to be extracted from EP1 and 2. My question is, am I telling the techs to install the OC client files into the orangebox folder, or am I telling them to install the OC server (Minus, I suppose, the SDK data - I've had nothing but issues installing these) into the Orangebox folder? Thanks!

You simply use the oc client files and put them into the orangebox folder (in a folder called "obsidian" of course).

Fantastic; server ordered! Thanks for the quick response!

I am trying to follow the instructions, but when I get to Extracting Source Game Content I don't think I understand what you mean by "Extract". I have the feeling there is some program that lets you look at a GCF file as if it were an archive and pull things out, but I am not familiar with this tool.

I would be happy with a non-dedicated server, but when either I or my friend set up in server mode, we get an error about it being set up as LAN code 3. This despite entering sv_lan 0 in the console. Have set up a couple of other cooperative mods successfully, but they don't offer a method of specifying and adding player models.

Any help would be appreciated.

google: GCF Scape

It will allow you to extract Game Cache Files.

I get the same problem as Alfie. I got to the final step of setting up a server, then when I launch the batch file it says "Engine Error: SetupArrayProps_R: array prop '(null)' is at index zero." I need help here because the solution of putting quotes around the folder in the batch did nothing. I spent about an hour putting together all the files and I actually want to be able to host a server for that

I fixed it, turns out the problem was the colliding tf2 and hl2 engines.

If i start the Server by this:
srcds.exe -console -game obsidian -port 27015 +map oc_harvest +maxplayers 8

The Server Loads a bit, then it says:
Engine Error
Setup ArrayProps_R: array prop '(null)' is at index zero.

As a new window.
What should i freakn' do?
Can someone Upload a empty Server for me?
hh, won't work because it has 40 GB, right? :/
