Requirements and unknowns

Device / inputThe project README specifies keyboard and mouse for this browser port.
Original filesFull games require your own valve/cstrike files; demo choices are separate and were not launched.
AccountEntry inspected; no account or multiplayer flow was tested.
CostNo purchase was performed; the entry alone does not establish all access costs.

What this project is

WebXash supplies a browser frontend for the Xash engine. The project README explains own-file loading and separate multiplayer-server setup.

Where to start

Use the original project link above. The game runs on that site.

  1. Prepare your own compatible Half-Life or Counter-Strike game data.
  2. Choose Open game Folder for a parent folder containing valve and/or cstrike, or Open ZIP for an equivalent archive.
  3. Select the game and review launch options. A separate websocket-compatible server is needed for multiplayer, according to the README.

Before troubleshooting

The project recommends keyboard and mouse for this port. The save manager is disabled for CS 1.6, according to its README. We did not load files or run a demo.
