SteamCMD

El SteamCMD (también conocido como consola del cliente de Steam) es una versión de comandos del cliente de Steam. Su uso principal es instalar varios servidores dedciados con una interfaz de líneas de comando. Funciona con juegos que utilicen un sistema de contenido SteamPipe. Todos los juegos han migrado su antiguo sistema HLDSUpdateTool a SteamCMD.

Descargar SteamCMD

Windows

1. Crea una carpeta para SteamCMD.

Por ejemplo

C:\steamcmd

2. Descarga SteamCMD para Windows: http://media.steampowered.com/installer/steamcmd.zip

3. Extrae el archivo ZIP en una carpeta.

Linux

1. Primero instala las dependencias necesarias para ejecutar SteamCMD.

Ubuntu/Debian 64-Bit

apt-get install lib32gcc1

RedHat/CentOS

yum install glibc libstdc++

RedHat/CentOS 64-Bit

yum install glibc.i686 libstdc++.i686

2. Como root, crea una carpeta para SteamCMD e indentifícate.

Nota:No ejecutes SteamCMD en sí mismo como root. Es innecesario y corres el riesgo de que se produzcan errores si lo ejecutas como root.

useradd -m steam
su - steam

(Si prefieres utilizar sudo, ejecuta lo anterior con el prefijo sudo.)

3. Crea un directorio para SteamCMD y cámbialo ahí.

mkdir ~/steamcmd
cd ~/steamcmd

3. Descarga SteamCMD para Linux.

wget http://media.steampowered.com/installer/steamcmd_linux.tar.gz

4. Extrae el contenido al directorio.

tar -xvzf steamcmd_linux.tar.gz

OS X

1. Abre Terminal.app y crea un directorio para SteamCMD.

mkdir ~/steamcmd
cd ~/steamcmd

2. Descarga SteamCMD para OS X.

curl -O http://media.steampowered.com/client/installer/steamcmd_osx.tar.gz

3. Extrae el contenido en el directorio.

tar -xvzf steamcmd_osx.tar.gz

Ejecutar SteamCMD

La primera vez se actualizará automáticamente y enter you in to a Steam> prompt. Escribe help para más información.

Windows

Abre la consola de comandos e inicia SteamCMD.

cd C:\steamcmd
steamcmd

Linux/OS X

Abre un terminal e inicia SteamCMD.

cd ~/steamcmd
./steamcmd.sh

Identificación de SteamCMD

Anónimo

Para descargar la mayoría de servidores de juegos puede hacerlo anónimamente.

login anonymous

Con tu cuenta de Steam

Algunos servidores necesitan una cuenta de Steam.

Nota:For security reasons it is recommended that you create a new Steam account just for your dedicated servers.

Nota:A user can only be logged in once at any time (counting both graphical client as well as SteamCMD logins).

login <username>

A continuación introduce tu contraseña.

If Steam Guard is activated on the user account, check your e-mail for a Steam Guard access code and enter it. This is only required the first time you log in (as well as when you delete the files where SteamCMD stores the login information).

You should see a message stating that you have successfully logged in with your account.

Descargar una aplicación

1. Inicia SteamCMD e identifícate.

2. Establece tu directorio de aplicación. (Nota: use forward slashes for Linux/OS X and backslashes for Windows.)

force_install_dir <path>

por ejemplo: un directorio llamado cs_go dentro del directorio actual:

force_install_dir ./cs_go/

3. Install or update the app using the app_update command (supplying a Steam Application ID). To also validate the app, add validate to the command. To download a beta branch, use the -beta <betaname> option – for example, the HLDS beta branch is named beta and the SrcDS beta branch is named prerelease. Some beta branches are protected by a password; to be able to download from them, also add the -betapassword <password> option.

app_update <app_id> [-beta <betaname>] [-betapassword <password>] [validate]

HLDS is a special case: the App ID is always 90 and a mod must be chosen first. This is done by setting the app config option mod to the requested value.

app_set_config <app_id> <option_name> <option_value>

Example: Install and validate the Counter Strike: Global Offensive dedicated server:

app_update 740 validate

Example: Install and validate HLDS with Team Fortress Classic:

app_set_config 90 mod tfc
app_update 90 validate

Error:HLDS (appid 90) currently requires multiple runs of the app_update command before all the required files are successfully installed. Simply run app_update 90 validate multiple times until no more updates take place.  [todo tested in?]

Example: Install and validate beta version of HLDS (Half-Life):

app_update 90 -beta beta validate

Example: install and validate beta version of the Counter Strike: Source dedicated server:

app_update 232330 -beta prerelease validate

Example: install and validate a private beta version of the Natural Selection 2 dedicated server (name alpha, password natsel):

[beta name] is the name of the private beta branch

[beta code] is the password for the private beta branch

app_update 4940 -beta alpha -betapassword natsel validate

3. Once finished, type quit to properly log off of the Steam servers.

quit

Validación

validate

Validate is a command that will check all the server files to make sure they match the SteamCMD files. This command is useful if you think that files may be missing or corrupted.

Nota:Validation will overwrite any files that have been changed. This may cause issues with customized servers. For example, if you customize mapcycle.txt, this file will be overwritten to the server default. Any files that are not part of the default installation will not be affected.

It is recommended you use this command only on initial installation and if there are server issues.

Servidores compatibles

A list of known servers that use SteamCMD to install is available on the Dedicated Servers List page. Note that any extra commands listed need to be executed before the app_update line.

Automatización de SteamCMD

There are two ways to automate SteamCMD. (Replace steamcmd with ./steamcmd.sh on Linux/OS X.)

Línea de comandos

Nota:When using the -beta option on the command line, it must be quoted in a special way, such as +app_update "90 -beta beta".

Nota:If this does not work, try putting it like "+app_update 90 -beta beta" instead.

Append the commands to the command line prefixed with plus characters, e.g.:

steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../csgo_ds +app_update 740 +quit

To install a specific game mod for HL1, such as Counter-Strike: Condition Zero:

steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../czero +app_set_config 90 mod czero +app_update 90 +quit

For a game that requires logins, like Killing Floor:

steamcmd +login <username> <password> +force_install_dir c:\KFServer\ +app_update 215350 +quit

Creación de un script

1. Put your SteamCMD commands in a text file. (You may add comments which start with //.) Example:

// update_csgo_ds.txt
//
@ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1 //set to 0 if updating multiple servers at once
@NoPromptForPassword 1
login <username> <password>
//for servers which don't need a login
//login anonymous 
force_install_dir ../csgo_ds
app_update 740 validate
quit

2. Run SteamCMD with the +runscript option, referring to the file you created previously. Example:

steamcmd +runscript csgo_ds.txt

Instalación entre plataformas

It is possible to choose the platform for which SteamCMD should download files, even if it isn't the platform it is currently running on. This is done using the @sSteamCmdForcePlatformType variable. (Yes, those are two "s"es at the beginning of the variable name.) For example, to download the Windows CSGO dedicated server on Linux, you can run the following command:

./steamcmd.sh +@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../csgo_ds +app_update 740 validate +quit

or use the following script:

@ShutdownOnFailedCommand 1
@NoPromptForPassword 1
@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows
login anonymous
force_install_dir ../csgo_ds
app_update 740 validate
quit

The supported values are windows, macos and linux.

SteamCMD Guardian 1.2

The following script was tested on Debian Wheezy.

Ver y descargar aquí: http://pastebin.com/hcpMpmaZ

Instalación

To make this script work, we need a location. Preferrably you created a user (e.g. steam) with it's own home directory (/home/steam) and are logged in as it via SSH, tty or using su.

1. Make the file.

   nano updateserver.sh

2. Paste in the code
3. Modify the code, add at least 1 game to the DL_SV*= rows.
4. Close the file with Ctrl+O, followed by ↵ Enter and concluding with Ctrl+X.
5. Give the file execute rights for the user

   chmod u+x ./updateserver.sh

6. Run the file

   ./updateserver.sh

The file will auto-download SteamCMD, update it and install all chosen games (up to 4). Run the file again to update the games.

Errores conocidos

ERROR! Failed to install app 'xxxxxx' (No subscription)

If you get the 'No subscription' error, the game/server you are trying to download either requires a login or that you have purchased the game. You will therefore have to log in with a Steam username and password – if that doesn't help, you may need to purchase a copy of the game on Steam first. See Dedicated Servers List.

Nota:For security reasons it is recommended that you create a new Steam account just for your dedicated servers.

For example

steamcmd +login <username> <password>

32-bit libraries on 64-bit Linux systems

Since SteamCMD is a 32-bit binary, 32-bit libraries are required.

The following error may occur:

steamcmd: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The resolution depends on your distro:

Debian based Distros (Ubuntu, Mint, etc.)

apt-get install lib32gcc1

Nota:ia32-libs are not required to install SteamCMD; lib32gcc1 is enough.

With Debian 7 "Wheezy" you may encounter this error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies: ia32-libs : Depends: ia32-libs-multiarch but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

To fix this, do the following:

 dpkg --add-architecture i386
 apt-get update
 apt-get install lib32gcc1

Red Hat based Distros (RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, etc.)

yum install glibc.i686 libstdc++.i686

Arch Linux

Don't forget to first enable the multilib repository.

pacman -S lib32-gcc-libs

Login Failure: No Connection

On linux servers, you may experience a "Login Failure: No Connection" error. This is related to missing iptables rules. You will want something along these lines:

iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m udp --sport 27000:27030 --dport 1025:65355 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m udp --sport 4380 --dport 1025:65355 -j ACCEPT

The port list is found here: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8571-GLVN-8711&l=english

On Windows servers, you may experience "SteamUpdater: Error: Download failed: http error 0" and "SteamUpdater: Error: Steam needs to be online to update. Please confirm your network connection and try again.". This is usually fixed by checking "Automatically detect settings" in IE (Internet Explorer) through the lan settings in the Internet option menu.

1. Open Internet Explorer (IE).
2. Click on Tools → Internet Options
3. Click on the Connections tab
4. At the bottom, you should see Local Area Network (LAN) Settings.
5. Check the first box (Automatically detect settings)
6. Hit OK, and Apply. Try running the SteamCMD again; if it still doesn't work. try lowering your Internet Security level zone to medium or lower. You can find that in the Security tab in Internet Options.

SteamCMD startup errors

Unable to locate a running instance of Steam

You may get the following error when starting a server with Linux:

[S_API FAIL] SteamAPI_Init() failed; unable to locate a running instance of Steam, or a local steamclient.dll.

Resolve the issue by linking steamclient.so to the ~/.steam/sdk32/steamclient.so directory:

ln -s steamcmd/linux32/steamclient.so ~/.steam/sdk32/steamclient.so

ulimit Linux startup error

Some users may get a ulimit error (no permission/cannot open file) while script is starting up. This error caused by a low setting of the -n parameter (number of file descriptors) of ulimit. SteamCMD uses standard commands inside of the initialization shell script to change the ulimit automatically, but some servers may forbid increasing ulimit values after startup (or beyond a limit set by root).

This can be fixed by changing the file descriptor number ulimit:

ulimit -n 2048

If an error appears (no permission), you will have to log in as root to change the parameter. To check the current setting, type ulimit -a; the system will reply with many rows, you need to find one:

open files                      (-n) 1024

In this case, 1024 is the current value.

root can also modify the limits in the /etc/security/limits.conf file.

In most instances you will simply get a warning message however it will not stop SteamCMD from running.

Only the HLDS engine is downloaded

When trying to download a HL1 mod like TFC, initially it only downloads the engine files of the HLDS, but not the mod. This happens with both the regular version and the beta. You may have to try multiple times until all the required files are downloaded, but once this is done, the files should update correctly next time.

Work-around for this issue here: http://danielgibbs.co.uk/2013/11/hlds-steamcmd-workaround-appid-90/

Just deleting the appmanifest files, without downloading replacements from a third party, may work as well! You will get an error at first though, complaining that something went wrong, which is due to the deleted files.

On a side note, for some reason CS is always installed as well.
