Good morning, I am looking for a way to downgrade my dedicated server from v1125 to v1122? I am using SteamCMD. Thank you in advance.
Thank you for your answer But this command does not work for me, the installation is inexorably done in 1125 ...
Try the following: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta old-ui +quit
Are you overwriting a current folder?.... I just did this to a new install folder and all worked, I used this command; Code: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../rF2-v1122 +app_update 400300 -beta v1122 validate +quit
I used the previous command : steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta v1122 +quit I will test with yours to see : steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir ../rF2-v1122 +app_update 400300 -beta v1122 validate +quit Thanks
@Goanna @69Elwood I made a summary in the discord support forum a couple months back. Does this look correct? Nobody ever responded there to confirm. I don't understand why this information doesn't get added to the user guide. I wonder how many issues users have had trying to setup multiplayer servers and had issues because they did realize the dedicated wasn't at the proper build. Here's the summary: For a new dedicated installation: Release Candidate: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta release-candidate +quit Betas none (mainstream build): steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 +quit Old UI: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta old_ui +quit For updating or reverting back to an older version: Release Candidate: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta previous-release validate +quit Betas none (mainstream build): steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta betas_none validate +quit Old UI: steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta old_ui validate +quit And I think it would be helpful to add a sentence to the guide on how to verify the build of your server by opening the appmanifest_400300.acf in the C:\rFactor2-Dedicated\steamapps folder with notepad.
release-candidate instead of release_candidate. steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir .C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta release-candidate validate +quit Don't need the -betas stuff, so just steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 validate +quit No such thing as old ui for the server, there is the previous-release which gives the previous public build. steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir C:\rFactor2-Dedicated +app_update 400300 -beta previous-release validate +quit Same same for the reverting stuff. Naming of which build you want is important, so I check => https://steamdb.info/app/400300/depots/ to get the correct naming. I also use the validate command on all downloads, whether new or reverting. Hope this helps
Excellent information @Goanna! I updated my post with your corrections to lessen any confusion. This information is long overdue to go in the dedicated server user guide.
