Talk:SteamCMD

I get in my CMD the error the steamCMD cannot connect to internet. I have connection to the internet but I am not able to login into the SteamCMD. I am in centOS and I am not logged in into the normal steam client or site

Exit codes

Is there a list of exit codes & means for steamcmd?

For some reason, if a game is up2date it exits with exit code6

ia32-libs

On Ubuntu, the Package Group ia32-libs-gtk is now called ia32-libs.

Invalid Platform

I seem to be getting: ERROR! Failed to install app '220070' (Invalid Platform)

I'm using Fedora 17. uname -a returns: Linux localhost.localdomain 3.6.10-2.fc17.i686 #1 SMP Tue Dec 11 18:27:35 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Other people seem to be getting this error as well, though I'm not too sure what distro they're using. I'll try it again in the morning with Ubuntu.

Poor Documentation Doesn't Help Linux

The documentation here takes some tinkering with to get things working.

And some doesn't even work.

First, to clarify, app ID is the valve app ID for the game. There should be a link to the app ID list somewhere (although they list CSGO in the example.

Second, to automate SteamCMD do xxx.

SteamCMD is not really a command. You can't just run SteamCMD although it makes it look like you should. I guess you have to run steam.sh every time although I'm still vague on this step.

I'll set an update script however, I don't know what command to kick it off with. These instructions should take nothing for granted.

I never thought I'd say this but I miss the hlds tool.
