Easiest way to update TF2?

I recently setup a TF2 server but do not have an update.bat script or any other way of updating. What the easiest way to update the servers? It's a vanilla TF2 server with no 3rd party maps.

Your server needs to be restarted in order to receive the latest update.

Re: Easiest way to update TF2?

Great question!

Here's what I do to update my Windows TF2 Dedicated Server. I have a folder called "C:\STEAMCMD" that has all of my STEAMCMD files, including these two below:

I made a file called "update.bat" that contains this info:

PHP Code:


		
			
steamcmd +runscript tf2update.txt

I made a file called tf2update.txt that has this info:

PHP Code:


		
			
login anonymous 

force_install_dir C:\TF2Server 

app_update 232250 validate

quit

When I want to update, or validate an update, I go to a command prompt and type:

PHP Code:


		
			
cd\steamcmd

update

That's it.

I hope this helps.

Re: Easiest way to update TF2?

I use same method like PC Gamer.

steamcmd.exe set into G:\server\steamcmd\ folder

Using batch file steamcmd_run.bat

Code:

@echo off

echo.

echo SteamCMD started!

echo.



steamcmd +runscript update.txt



echo.

echo SteamCMD finished!

echo.



timeout /T 5 /nobreak

And update.txt looks now like this

Code:

login anonymous



@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows



force_install_dir "../Counter-Strike Global Offensive"

app_update 740 validate



//force_install_dir "../Counter-Strike Source"

//app_update 232330 validate



exit

...you can change "platform type" to Linux and download Linux srcds files. For searching signatures and else.
