In this part I will describe how to configure Counter-Strike 1.6 server (Steam Version). Before that it is highly recommended to keep a back up of hlds folder. Go to hlds folder inside that folder there is a folder named cstrike, this is root folder of Counter-Strike 1.6. Inside root folder you will find a file named server.cfg open that file using notepad ot wordpad. This is a configuration file of your file. Every time when you will start server it will be executed it also executes at the time of map change. now follow this table. I tried to discuss about all important cvars in this table. If you open the server.cfg file you can view these types cvars. In every line there will be only one cvar & the pattern will be like this, <cvar name> <value>. If you want to stop a cvar then uncomment them using // Just put double slash before a cvar name it will stop executing that cvar. I also made a server.cfg file. If you wish you can download by clicking here. If you use my server.cfg file you have to replace the original one, if you wish you can also edit the original cfg file.
