Overview

What is a SRCDS

SRCDS stands for Source Dedicated Server. This is a free stand-alone server program created by Valve. Unlike other type of servers, SRCDS does not require steam or even a copy of Half-Life:2 to install. When installing a SRCDS, the update tool will download all the required files for the server of your choice.
