This Docker has been put to Read-Only! Our Docker image for HLDS 1.1.1.0 now includes beta 7.1 and 1.0 Retail!

ORIGINAL README.md

This project generates a Docker image that automates setting up a Half-Life dedicated server, version 1.1.0.4, using the WON2 protocol. This docker image also includes several popular mods that are still played using this version which are Counter-Strike 1.0, and Beta 7.1.

Why this docker ?

There are a few communities around the World that still play Counter-Strike 1.0 or Beta 7.1 . However, I have noticed that some Linux distributions are not friendly with this version of HLDS due to potential library incompatibilities, and may instantly crash upon starting.

A workaround was found since then, but I still wanted to provide a ready to use image for preservation purposes. Since Docker allows creating "sandboxed" environments using other versions of Linux, I created this project.

Features

Creates a Debian (i386) barebones environment for HLDS 1.1.0.4 using vanilla files and security patches only.
Server settings can be configured without the requirement of rebuilding the docker image (with the exception of Half-Life 1)

Included mods

Counter-Strike beta 7.1
Counter-Strike 1.0 (retail)

Installation/Usage

Simply edit the docker-compose.yml to add or modify anything you require.

If you need to change the port of your server, change all occurences of 27015 (= in ports and in the command sections) to the desired port of your choice.

Change also the user token so that it is checking with the user and group running the container, to avoid upload issues or potential permission problems.

Example of Docker file

version: "3.0"

services:
  hlds:
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    user: "1000:1000" # <- Change this to your UID:GID
    volumes:
      - ./config/cstrk10:/server/hlds_l/cstrk10
      - ./config/cstrk71:/server/hlds_l/cstrk71
    ports:
      - 27015:27015
      - 27015:27015/udp
    command:
      - -port 27015 -game cstrk10 +map de_dust +maxplayers 16
    security_opt:
      - no-new-privileges:true

Once done, just execute docker-compose up to make sure everything works as intended, and you should be good to go.

If you need to rebuild the image (for instance for testing or to add a few additional things), just type docker-compose build and you should be good to go.

Customisation

Simply go to the config folder, and modify the required folders you wish.

config/cstrk10 is for Counter-Strike 1.0.
config/cstrk71 is for Counter-Strike Beta 7.1.
config/valve is for Half-Life. However, since no playerbase really exists for Half-Life WON2 (people play it on STEAM instead), this only includes the WON2 masterservers.

Do I have to include +sv_lan 1?

Nope! It's already included inside hlds_start (which is basically a renamed hlds_run script), so you don't have to!
