Half-Life: Decay PC port dedicated server
As of late, I've been trying to set up a Half-Life: Decay fan port dedicated server on an Ubuntu, (18.04,) server of mine. I have gotten the dedicated server installed with SteamCMD, and managed to install the mod to my (also) Linux laptop using Wine and move it to the server's install folder. Running hlds_run seems to work fine, but, upon running it with the -game decay parameter, I get as far as the IP address displaying before i encounter the error:
Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from ��l�����! FATAL ERROR (shutting down): Host_Error: Couldn't get DLL API from ��l�����!
I consider myself somewhat experienced with not only Linux but GoldSrc and the like. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as finding information on the installation of this particular mod has proved difficult.

Make sure SteamCMD downloaded all the game files, it is broken for GoldSRC games, usually it only downloads 30~80mb..
