    problem.

What You Are Seeing?

When Dota 2 is being created using seDirector you may no longer be able to select srcds.exe after the server files are downloaded.

It now changed to dota2.exe (complete game) and vconsole2 ((not used for server purposes).

You also would need a Dota account if you would want to try and have it as a dedicated server while using the following parameters on the Dota 2 Shortcut:

-dedicated -game dota +map dota
-dedicated runs the game in dedicated server mode
-game dota run the Dota game
+map dota loads the Dota map

There is no possibility yet in seDirector to add these parameters due that it can't be added to a server because of the missing srcds.exe file.

What is Expected?

To have a srcds.exe file which in this case isn't existing.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

I tried to "add a server" and i chose Dota 2.

You can create the server by clicking on the "Create" button and choose a destination path.

Once created it asks to select the srcds.exe file, which in this case does not exist.

It now changed to dota2.exe (complete game) and vconsole2 ((not used for server purposes).

You also would need a Dota account if you would want to try and have it as a dedicated server while using the following parameters on the Dota 2 Shortcut:

-dedicated -game dota +map dota
-dedicated runs the game in dedicated server mode
-game dota run the Dota game
+map dota loads the Dota map

There is no possibility yet in seDirector to add these parameters due that it can't be added to a server because of the missing srcds.exe file.

System Details

  • Windows Server 2019 Standard

seDirector_error.log Output

No errors to see nor logged.

so all that needs to happen is it needs to use dota2.exe and -dedicated similar to cs2.exe right?
