Noob server setup

[mynewromantica]

My brothers and I want to set up a server for CS:S. But we don't really know where to start. If someone can point me to a really good tutorial or just tell me that would be awesome.
Here is what we want:
Bots
Stats
votemenu
gungame(is it possible to have gungame in some levels on a server and not others?)

None of have ever attempted a server before but we are all fairly computer savvy.

Thanks so much

Welcome to the forums, romantica. I went ahead and did a little digging in our "Tutorials" section and found these two guides for bots and gungame.

I'm sure if you do a little more digging you will find the other tutorials in our forums quickly enough.

Here's the bot thread.

And here's GunGame.

Hey mynewromantica,

Welcome to the forums!

What admin mod plugin do you want to use for your game server? There's 2 tutorials on how to install mani admin and sourcemod in the tutorials forum. Mani mod is the whole package which comes with stats, vote menu. Sourcemod you will need to add each individual plugin seperate because sourcemod does not comes with all the plugins built in.

If you use mani mod you will need to install mattie eventscripts to make your server gungame but with sourcemod all you need to do is all the gungame mod.

Thanks for using my thread Jack

I think we need more information. Do you want a dedicated server or listen (LAN) server? If dedicated, renting a server or using your own computer with SRCDS?
