What it does
Sets the name players see in the server browser, on the scoreboard and when they connect. Put the name in quotes if it has spaces. Changes show in the browser after the next update to the master server, usually within a minute or two.
Good to know
- Put it in server.cfg, or it resets to the default on restart.
Run it on your server
On a SLASHPLAY server, type it in the Console tab of the server page; the reply shows right under it. A value set there lasts until the server restarts. To keep it, add the line to cstrike/server.cfg. New to this? Start a CS 1.6 server first.
