I am having some issues trying to get a sorceforts server up and running on a linux machine. I followed the guide completly and I am not able to start the server for some reason. It just keeps saying invalid game type. The only difference is that I am remotly connected to the server. That should matter though because I changed all the permissions to read and write. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.



nathan@game2:~/Desktop/sforts$ ./srcds_run -console -game sourceforts +map sf_magma +maxplayers 16
Invalid game type 'sourceforts' sepecified.

Make sure the folder in your SRCDS is named "sourceforts".

We're not tools of the goverment or anyone else! Fighting was the only thing.. the only thing I was good at. But, at least I always fought for what I believed in!

I just extracted all of the files into the root of the server where the srcds files are located. Are you saying that you are suposed to make a folder called sourceforts (in the root folder) and put all the files in there?

Yes. It should look like this.

X:/srcds/sourceforts
