Well, do a search on Google, it's all available. But as far as I know, you'll have to use the parameters '+host ...', '+hostname ...' and '+map ...'. '+maxplayers ...' is also a working parameter. Well, try some stuff out, do a search and you'll find out.

It's in MP but created locally/over your LAN instead of online. I think CP is right, you'll have to use those commands to enable online MP. It's not that much of a hassle to go in and create a game manually, so if it doesn't work, don't spend too much time on it.

Async,
It adds more weight to your argument if you check your post for punctuation and grammar before commenting on the language ability of others. :-)

Officer, I swear there's no blood in my alcohol stream.

As for running in MP, I did a bit more research on the commands and it looks like you'll have to use the +host command, but the sites I checked were very vague on it's usage...maype input your IP in the host command?

With WON, you had to add "+connect:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" "password:XXXX", but that was to start your multiplayer game in Halflife in a specific server... and that was an extention on a shortcut target. Didn't work on the hl.exe app.

With STEAM, I'm not sure. http://www.steampowered.com/index.php?area=forums These people would definintely know.

And this list of Halflife Console Commands and Variables will help, if you don't have it already. It's at the bottom.

i tried
+deathmatch 1 ==> nothing always on singleplayer mode
+map ***** ==> too
+host ==> nothing it seems like an unknown or inactive command
