Readme.txt has written

Most probably that file hasn't enough privileges to be executed by other users. Only with chmod command you're able to modify and give permissions and privileges to a specific group, folder, file etc. Try to change the permissions of the executable binary with this example below.

chmod +x /home/cs2d/cs2d_dedicated

Or with this...

chmod 777 /home/cs2d/cs2d_dedicated

Depending where is your both cs2d folder and the executable binary located of course. But I'd recommend to keep always your cs2d folder in Home folder. You can try also the second method however it is kinda dangerous because it gives privileges to anyone to execute that file, not just to the Owner group.
