Don't use that.

The only files that you need aside from a standard Dota 2 client download in Steam are srcds.exe from either Alien Swarm or apparently L4D2 dedicated server, MM:S, and D2Fixups.

If you want to use lan mode, you just set the sv_lan mode cvar to 1, which can be done on the startup line as "+sv_lan 1"

Yes there is (tv_enable 1) but when you start a map it will crash but if you connect to your server and then do 'map dota' it will kinda work, i've not got a replay thou because its not giving the recording a name so it discards it :L

McM3yer, a few posts back there was a guy who listed the method (but deleted it for some reason). Apparently (since i haven't tested it myself), the way to get CM mode working is; Have radiant team join first, with 5th person who joins radiant team being designated as the one who picks - dire can join randomly, and it should work.

I always thought this uses Steamworks servers so that you had to use their servers in order to play.

Hello

I set up everything like the instructional post in this thread said and it seems to be working but I have one problem:

Other computers are able to connect to the server via the ip and port in the dota client.

But the computer running the server is not able to connect to it (Tried both 127.0.0.1 and the real IP).

Is there something I´m missing or is this a known problem?

Thank you so much for your time and effort!

If you're connecting to a server from the machine running it, you need to set the clientport cvar on your client to something other than 27005.

The easiest way is to just right click Dota 2 in Steam, Properties, Set Launch Options, and add +clientport 33333 (or some other port that's not 27005).

Dota 2 is on the Source Engine? Who'd have thunk it.

Although, I don't see much practical use for this, other than having a private server where there's no CD timers or, Mana costs. Would kind of ruin the whole point of the game, where as games such as GunGames or Mini-games for CS:S make the game more enjoyable instead of a competition to see who gets the most OP champion and can build him up fast enough to ruin the game for everyone else.
