Could I run a Css server off my lappy ?

Slinger · 27 Aug 2007 at 14:29

I have the server running now,

but I cant find my server by typing in its up address when trying to add it to favourites..

Im not sure if using the same steam account on two pcs on the same network has an effect on any of this,

is it safe to give out my server ip here ?

AARRRGG, last time I configured mani so easily, now I dunno what Im doing

I have managed to bind a key to mani admin and make myself admin, but the menu comes up i select an option and then nuthing happens !

I wouldn't bother with Mani for just a home server mate. Post your IP up and people will probably join to try it out

I thought of using mani to use the regular adverts that you can set to come up

Yes I agree. The Steam GUI version is rubbish and is actually much less stable than the command line version. Check out this website. It give you a guide on exactly how to set up the command line version. Once you've got the command line version Mani is incredibly easy to install.

Wait a sec, doesnt this mean its going to download all the files required, like over 2 gigs or something ??

I dont really want to have to do that.... unless I can some how move files over from my installation css previously ?

if not, then I have to uninstall my previous installation of css (main reason cause I dont have enough space on the drive for a second installation !
