No, sorry, my bad. I miss that you have stand-alone version of CS:S.


After copy SETTI masterserver file to C:Program FilesCounter-Strike Sourceplatformconfig, do you made file Read-only?

Hello there,i have same problem, and i know i'm doing all steps well because is not my first time.I have deleted the MasterServers file,then i go to game and look if there are some server that don't be because i have deleted the file,but there are all servers again (oficials servers) how i didn't delete any. There are an other place were game is going to look for MasterServers.Note: i was playing well in nosteam server til i reinstall windows,games,etc...perhaps is the steam instalation.I think all who have this problem must look if have installed the steam program.

Search for "masterservers.vdf" in your Steam or game directory and delete all of them. Sometimes there are duplicates in different directories and that is why the Setti masterserver isn't working for you. After you have deleted them follow the install instructions again.

Alternatively you can replace all the masterservers.vdf's with the Setti version.

Doesn't this "error" appear if you want to connect to legit STEAM server ? If you have a standalone (cracked) CSS then you can only play on cracked servers, not on original Steam servers. And you can get a list of cracked CSS servers by installing Setti Masterserver. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Check servers at http://css.setti.info/servers/css. Write down few server IP addresses. Then start your game with "-console" parameter (eg. hl2.exe -game cstrike -console). Then write in console "connect ".

Good thing you got it fixed. Someone else had the same problem earlier too. Maybe it's better to mention the difference in the Masterserver install instructions too.
