Dedicated Server---
DEDICATED SERVER INSTALL-----
Install: http://www.steampowered.com/download/hldsupdatetool.exe
Create a bat file and throw this inside: hldsupdatetool -command update -game "tf" -dir C:\***srcds folder*** And run the bat, with the ***srcds folder*** changed to your srcds directory. This will download TF2 content so it sets up your directories.
While your at it, download "Counter-Strike Source" content as well. Just replace the "tf" with "Counter-Strike Source" and run the bat again.
You should now have an orangebox folder. Before you enter this folder right click on the "hl2" folder which was downloaded by the hldsupdatetool when you downloaded CS:S and press copy.
Enter the orangebox folder and paste the hl2 folder you copied previously. You will need this for models and such.
Inside the orangebox folder, create two new folders, "ep2" and "episodic"
