Mods Don't download

[RanmaKei]

The dedicated server NEVER attempts to download the mods. It does show that it reads the dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua file.

I have tried different switches when launching the server, I've tried different install locations, I've even tried having just a single mod listed in the dedicated_server_mods_setup.lua file. The server runs perfectly fine, other then it never attempts downloading the mods. It doesn't even list the number of mods like I've seen in other people posted logs.

I'm not sure where to go on this. Am I missing a config option somewhere. Misspelled a file? I even had Steam download all the workshop mods directly.

Added cmd to have SteamCMD download workshop mods

I figured out my problem. x64 bit doesn't support the mods.

Ran in 32bit mode to fix

 

c:\steamcmd\steamcmd.exe +login anonymous +app_update 343050 +quit
cd /D "c:\steamcmd\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Together Dedicated Server\bin"
start dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer -console -cluster Cluster_1 -shard Master
start dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer -console -cluster Cluster_1 -shard Caves

Glad you fixed it already... but 64 bit does indeed support mods. It works just the same. Maybe some mods are somewhere inside the ugc_mods folder, instead of the mods folder.

[RanmaKei]

The download part seems like it was just skipped in the logs. It didn't download the mods until after switching to the 32bit executable.

Perhaps, the workaround is to run as 32bit for it to download the mods, then switch to 64bit after. I will have to test this as some point.

[Daniel86268]

I guess for the time being you could do something like this as a startup script:

c:\steamcmd\steamcmd.exe +login anonymous +app_update 343050 +quit

cd /D "c:\steamcmd\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Together Dedicated Server\bin"
.\dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer -console -only_update_server_mods

cd /D "c:\steamcmd\steamapps\common\Don't Starve Together Dedicated Server\bin64"
start dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer_x64 -console -cluster Cluster_1 -shard Master
start dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer_x64 -console -cluster Cluster_1 -shard Caves

This should update the mods using the 32bit server, and then, once it's done, it'll start the 64bit Server.

Might need some tweaking or adjustments, since I just patched this code together real quick and it could contain errors.
