Kay. So I did everything Thothie said in his/her server setup guide. Used his/her restarter and configured everything in server.cfg. Still, every time I start up a server it says something to the effect of "Can't load gfx.wad." Oddly enough, when I run HLDS.exe first, Thothie's restarter works and I can close HLDS.exe. So that's fine, I guess. When I join my own server, though, I get lag up the wah-zoo, even though my ping is like 3 the whole time. I'll be able to run for about a second, then it'll pause for about 5 seconds.
Help starting up a server.

Try having the server run off from a different machine as the one your playing on. That seems to help 
Also, as to the .WAD file, make sure you have a file called gfx.WAD in your MSC folder. If not, copy another .WAD file & rename it.

Nope, not at all. It'll just make certain things look a little fucked up, but that's the worst of it (like a well detailed wall could just be a plain blue one).
