HLDS Comes Steaming Into Town

Posted by Hotshot at 10:33 11/9/2003.

Following on from the Steam related post of yesterday, the 1.6 HLDS has been released for both Linux and Windows based systems.

Although not particularly newsworthy in its own right, I was initially waiting for the client release as well, hopefully the early arrival and download of the HLDS can ensure that all you server admins out there can get what you need before the rush.

A link for the linux release is here with the Windows release being found here.

its the dedicated server, basically it allows ppl who run servers, bygames jolt etc. to be prepared for the crossover to steam and 1.6. so that when steam and 1.6 arrive the gaming servers shud hopefully be updated and ready to rock

thats my take on it anyway [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

If i had a server i would be jumping for joy... possibly.
Will 1.6 be available on magazine coverdisks? 56k and steam are unhappy bedfellows. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

How much more accurate a glock do you want? You can already backflip off walls and HS people with it at the same time. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

So, do you HAVE to have Steam to download 1.6? Or can you still get just by itself like always [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]

Yes u need Steam to play 1.6 also u will need Steam to play any HL Mods online as Steam is replacing WON in about a months time...

Also Steam will be needed to PLay any other Valve games IE: CS:CZ & HL2 & TF2

Its not as bad as everyone thinks, ive been using it since January amd at that time it was very buggy! but the past few months the game has been solid. [ Comment: Report | IP: Logged ]
