Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

10 Attachment(s)

It is now possible to run dedicated servers for Dota 2 on all platforms: Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.

Installation

To get started, download Dota 2 using the Steam client or SteamCMD with appid 570. For SteamCMD, you will have to login to an existing Steam account since it is not available when logging in anonymously.

For Mac OS X, follow the Linux instructions for SteamCMD usage. The Mac OS X build of SteamCMD can be downloaded here.

Next, download the appropriate attachment below for the OS on which you wish to run a server. Extract the files into your Dota 2 install directory. Note that this will overwrite the dedicated.so or dedicated.dylib file on Linux or OS X.

By default, the install directory will be one of the following:

Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\dota 2 beta
Linux: ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/dota 2 beta
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/dota 2 beta

For Linux, if you don't have the Steam client installed, you will also need to download the Steam runtime and extract it into your home directory.

For both Linux and Mac OS X, if you don't have the Steam client installed, you will need to still obtain the steamclient binaries from a Steam client install for your OS and copy them to the bin directory of your Dota 2 install. This includes crashhandler, steamclient, libsteam, libtier0_s, and libvstdlib_s. On Linux, these files have a .so extension and can be found in ~/.steam/bin32. On OS X, they have a .dylib extension and can be found in /Applications/Steam.app/Contents/MacOS/osx32. From /Applications/Steam.app/Contents/MacOS, you will also need to copy the Frameworks directory to your server's install directory (NOT bin).

Before you run the server, it is highly recommended that you also install the latest snapshot of Metamod:Source and the Dota 2 Fixups plugin in order to fix a number of issues. Note that you must edit the gameinfo.txt file in the "dota" subdirectory in order to install Metamod:Source. For more details on this install method, see the documentation here. (If you chose to use a Steam client install from which you also play the game, you will need to remove the gameinfo edit before launching the Dota client.)

Running the Server

After installing the necessary files, running the server is easy if you've ever run Source servers before. Open a terminal program (or the command prompt on Windows) and navigate to the directory containing your Dota 2 installation. Then run the following command depending on which OS you are using:

Windows: srcds.exe -console -game dota +map dota
Linux: ~/steam-runtime/run.sh ./srcds_run -game dota +map dota
Mac OS X: ./srcds_run -game dota +map dota

Additional command line options, such as -port <port number> and -ip <ip address>, may also be added as needed.

If on Linux and using the copy of steam-runtime shipped with the Steam client, its default path is ~/.steam/bin32/steam-runtime.

Special thanks to psychonic for testing this on Linux and for creating the Dota 2 Fixups plugin!

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

hi
what I need to edit in gameinfo.txt ?
when I start the server it shuts down
srcds.exe -console -game dota +map dota +ip x.x.x.x -port xxxxx
(windows)

"GameInfo"
{
game "DOTA 2"
gamelogo 1
type multiplayer_only
nomodels 1
nohimodel 1
nocrosshair 0
GameData "dota.fgd"
SupportsDX8 0

FileSystem
{
SteamAppId 816 // This will mount all the GCFs we need (240=CS:S, 220=HL2).
ToolsAppId 211 // Tools will load this (ie: source SDK caches) to get things like materials\debug, materials\editor, etc.

//
// The code that loads this file automatically does a few things here:
//
// 1. For each "Game" search path, it adds a "GameBin" path, in <dir>\bin
// 2. For each "Game" search path, it adds another "Game" path in front of it with _<langage> at the end.
// For example: c:\hl2\cstrike on a french machine would get a c:\hl2\cstrike_french path added to it.
// 3. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "MOD".
// 4. For the first "Game" search path, it adds a search path called "DEFAULT_WRITE_PATH".
//

//
// Search paths are relative to the base directory, which is where hl2.exe is found.
//
// |gameinfo_path| points at the directory where gameinfo.txt is.
// We always want to mount that directory relative to gameinfo.txt, so
// people can mount stuff in c:\mymod, and the main game resources are in
// someplace like c:\program files\valve\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life 2.
//
SearchPaths
{
Game |gameinfo_path|.
Game platform
}
}
}

The SearchPaths sections should look like this after you add the GameBin line documented here, https://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installi...ource#GameInfo

Code:

        SearchPaths

        {

            GameBin            |gameinfo_path|addons/metamod/bin

            Game            |gameinfo_path|.

            Game            platform

        }

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

Alright!!! So there's a lot of confusion on here and elsewhere on how to run a Dota 2 server of your own, here's a complete(hopefully) rundown:

What you need:
steamcmd
The latest Metamod:Source 1.11 Snapshot.
The latest download of d2fixups.

Installation:
You'll use steamcmd to install and maintain your Dota installation. Follow these instructions using Dota's appid of 570. So, when you see commands like:

PHP Code:


		
			
app_update 740 validate

Know that the Dota equivalent is:

PHP Code:


		
			
app_update 570 validate

I'll refer to the root of your steamcmd install as "dotaserver"

You'll need a compatible srcds executable for your platform. Get it from DS's original post in this thread above. Extract it into "/dotaserver/", putting the core files (e.g. srcds_linux, srcds.exe) alongside your Dota exectuable.

Open up your steamcmd install to the (dotaserver/dota) directory.
Metamod:Source goes inside your addons folder. If you look inside of the .rar, you'll see an "addons" folder. This means that it's meant to be merged with your existing addons folder, so drop it inside of dotaserver/dota directly.
d2fixups is the same way. After extracting MM:S, extract d2fixups just like that.

To get Metamod:Source to load, you need to edit gameinfo.txt in (dotaserver/dota) as per the instruction in this article under "GameInfo".

Launching srcds
You'll need to run the program with certain parameters. DS's original post brushes over the specifics of executing SRCDS on your platform.

Mandatory:

PHP Code:


		
			
 -game dota -console

Sub-Mandatory:

PHP Code:


		
			
 -port <port> -ip <computersLANIP>

Helpful:

PHP Code:


		
			
 +map <mapname> -maxplayers 10 +developer <0/1/2>

Network and General Configuration in Windows
In Windows, I like creating a shortcut and editing its "target". This involves creating a shortcut to srcds.exe, opening Right click-> Properties, and adding your parameters after the final quotation mark in the Target: field. You'll need these, for sure:
-console -game dota +map dota -maxplayers 10 -port <yourchosenport> -ip <computersLANIP>
So, my Target: field looks something like this:
"C:\dotaserver\srcds.exe" -console -game dota -port 3003 -ip 192.168.1.4 -maxplayers 10

For -ip, input your computer's LAN address. Windows users can find out how here:
http://windows.about.com/od/networkc...-Windows-7.htm

Pick any available port for -port. Keep in mind that in addition to any typical networking considerations (firewalls, etc.), if you want to make your server joinable over the network, you need to forward your chosen port. Find your router on this list., and pick a guide for any game. Then, just apply the instructions given, but for whatever port you've chosen.

Connecting and Playing
To connect clients must enter

Code:

connect ip:port

into their Dota console, example:

Code:

connect 192.168.1.4:27015

When greeted with a darkened overview of the map, you need only to join a team.

Code:

jointeam good

Code:

jointeam bad

To skip the Waiting For Players stage, set the following cvar:

Code:

dota_wait_for_players_to_load 1

where the integer is the number of players to wait for before entering Pick.

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

Thanks a lot for this. It's really cool :up:
Actually, I have some problems running the server.
After installing and configuring the server according above instructions, I run it.
But it writes:
********************************************* ***
* Unable to load Steam support library. *
* This server will operate in LAN mode only. *
********************************************* ***

How to fix this???

P.S.
How to use Sourcemod for this server?

Same as on Windows - just grab a Linux snapshot from the download page instead of a Windows snapshot.

The Dota 2 binaries require a newer GLIBC version than Debian 7 ships. CentOS has the same issue. (Although it does run on the latest Ubuntu LTS, 12.04).

A workaround is to copy the libc.so.6 (and libm.so.6) from a newer distribution into your Dota 2 directory (next to srcds_linux).

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

I've updated the first post with a new srcds binary for Linux.

It should fix the undefined symbol error mentioned earlier. It should also fix another symbol error that occurs when attempting to load the clientprefs extension for SourceMod.

DS	03-15-2014 02:42

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

The first post has been updated once again with a new dedicated binary for Linux and Mac OS X. This fixes an issue where VScript files couldn't be run and some custom game modes wouldn't work as a result.

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

Aside from our crashes due to cosmetics on Linux, I'm having another issue now... The server seems to shutdown whenever someone disconnects, for example, if I fail to connect (like I don't have the map or something), the server instantly closes. Same thing if someone disconnects halfway through.

I'm running metamod and sourcemod, as well as d2fixups. I'm not sure what would cause this. The server log just says someone disconnected, and then immediately ends.

Psy this is also Quantum on Steam, glad to see you're still looking at this thread.

I'm having trouble connecting to the server on three windows servers right now, I'm not quite sure why as if I launch the Alien Swarm style setup on the server it works fine, but using the same port in this version I can't connect. This is strange as I can connect to it on my local server.

The setups are exactly the same on every server as I have an exe setting everything up. Any ideas why I wouldn't be able to connect?

Also, does RCON use TCP or UDP in this? Which is better? Do I need the rcon handshake?

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

Hello everybody,
I'm trying to setup an offline dota 2 server for a lan party (completly without internet), metamod and the d2fixups are installed, but if i'm trying to host a new game over typing 'map dota' the server kills itself without giving an error or something else. Any ideas about what I can do?

Is there any news about this issue?

There is an issue with Linux servers causing it to crash in some bone/animation logic. It is difficult to debug and not the fault of any plugins.

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

What are the possible causes of this message? The server shuts itself down afterwards.

Code:

That can happen if you have the Steam client installed on the server and it is out of date (whether it is running or not).

Hmm, I tried updating the server files using app_update 570 validate in SteamCMD. I don't know if that is what I'm supposed to do but it made no difference.

Not the game server, but the Steam client.

Yes, I'm sure that my Steam client is up to date. Are there any other possible reasons?

Get rid of the revemu no-steam garbage and it will work.

Re: Dota 2 Dedicated Servers

Hello there, let me introduce myself quickly. I'm a french dota 2 player and I'm having a LAN-party soon with some friends.
Of course, your tutorial to run a DotA 2 dedicated server is the best thing I've ever crossed on the Internet for a while, because I really want to play this game offline with no internet connection !
So, having some troubles I've just registered to this forum. First of all, a big thank you for your work !

So here's my trouble : I have installed the server following the guide step by step, and since i work in ITs I have no real problem to understand what I'm doing.

When I launch the server, it seems to be stable, but when I use the command "map dota", there are some error messages :

I don't know what the path \\scripts\maps\.txt refers to. And why can't i exec server.cfg ?

Thank you for your further help.

You can ignore the "\\scripts\maps\.txt" message, and not being able to exec server.cfg is normal if you don't have one (which is fine).

Hello Psychonic, thank you for answering so fast ! Unfortunately, your tip doesn't seem to fix my problem.

Here are some detailed screenshots of my procedure to run it :
