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.

That's a known issue with SourceMod on Dota right now (as of a few Dota updates ago), at least on Windows servers.

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?

This should now be fixed in SM 1.6.0-hg4312 and later snapshots.

So, I followed these guides:

But whatever I do, I can't get it to work. I run srcds.exe via the command line and the shortcut but each way it just closes after few seconds.
Here's how my folders look:

It looks like D2Fixups isn't loaded, possibly from MM:S not being loaded or installed.

[McM3yer]

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.

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