These are steps, which I took to try to launch my own server.
- Firstly, I created SteamCMD folder on my C:\ hard drive. My OS is Windows 7.
- Then I downloaded SteamCMD from https://media.steampowered.com/installer/steamcmd.zip and unzipped to:
Code: Select all
C:\steamcmd\
- I launched SteamCMD.exe and logged to my 2nd Steam account.
- When I succesfully logged in to SteamCMD via this account I typed the command:
Code: Select all
force_install_dir .\darkmessiah\
- Then typed
Code: Select all
app_update 2145 validate
- Downloading took a while, but it finally has finished and new folder darkmessiah in SteamCMD directory has been created.
- I went to darkmessiah folder and clicked on srcds.exe and first worrying error showed up:

Shortly, Steam.dll can't be found. - After that one, next error window showed up:
http://i57.tinypic.com/2pp08pe.jpg - To fix first of the issues, I copied Steam.dll from SteamCMD folder and pasted to darkmessiah folder.
- With hope to finally launch my server I clicked on srcds.exe and next few errors showed up:

I clicked OK and another similar showed up:

http://i58.tinypic.com/wryg4j.jpg

Please reply as soon as possible.
