Desktop Dedicated Server

On a normal desktop that runs a graphical session with Steam, you can run a dedicated server easily.

  1. Open Steam.
  2. In Steam, install Team Fortress 2.
  3. In Steam, install Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer.
  4. Install Team Comtress 2 normally through the itch.app.
  5. In the TC2 installation folder, run ./start_dedicated_tc2.bat.
  6. TC2 will automatically find its installed dependencies through Steam, and start the server. Steam must be running for this to happen.
