Install folders on TF2 dedicated server, (HLDSUpdateTool installed) Options

[Weasel]

I'm trying to setup the Alpha test on my TF2 server.
Please forgive me, I'm a little confused about the paths.

My dedicated server is installed via HLDSUpdateTool.
Consequently, there is no "steamapps" or any such folder on my server.

Base folder is:

CODE

C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf

So, do I do this:

• Put "rcbot2" folder like this: C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\rcbot2
• Put HPB_Bot2.dll into C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\bin

Does that sound right?

Can I put rcbot2 under C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\addons? or must it be directly under the TF base folder?

After finding and fixing several problems with help from this thread (thanks everyone ) I was then stuck with an error akin to 'Map not started or not running dedicated server.'

I was putting the plugin_load line in my server.cfg file and/or ServerCommand() in a SourceMod plugin - neither worked.

The simple solution was to put it in the command line, which is something I wouldn't have thought made a difference but I tried it as a last resort (thanks LordSkitch for your step 4 )
