the title. singleplayer map called test, map called test shows in map selection

Yup... That seems to be normal.

In WON Half-Life maps don't appear in the list if they don't have info_player_deathmatch.

Is there really no way around it on steam then? What about people using random map selection?

You could create a folder alongside folder "valve", name it valve2 or something, copy liblist.gam, then do hl.exe -game valve2. You could then put all your singleplayer maps there and use the original folder only for multiplayer. Then your map selection would be free of singleplayer maps. Looks like they hardcoded the original maps like c1a0 not to show up in the list.

I was about to say that seems like a little bit extreme before I remembered that every singleplayer map I download goes into my custommaps mini mod already, and any I work on are always mini mods as well.

Then again, it's not often I play HLDM so I wasn't really aware of this problem.

There is some way, but all of your maps must be with prefix. The way around this is using libist.gam https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Liblist.gam
Also one friend tolme it can happend in thsi way: the maps need to be in pak archive. Its use dbu goldsrc and quake engine. He told that if the maps are in pack format they wont display in crate server option, wen he explain it to me what I can use in pack format. But for this method I not sure, because didnt test it yet.
