# Downloading
You can use [SteamCMD](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD) to download the dedicated server.
```
steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir c:\steamcmd\sboxserver +app_update 1892930 validate +quit
steamcmd +force_install_dir c:\steamcmd\sboxserver +login anonymous +app_update 1892930 validate +quit
```
# Launching
Mainly the same as launching any other source server, specify the org+ident for game and map and it'll all download automatically.
```
sbox-server.exe +gamemode facepunch.sandbox +map baks.office
```
# Connecting
Players connect through your servers Steam ID, there's no need to worry about port forwarding or anything, you can get your ID through the status command.
```
status
...
11:04:39 Server steamid : [A:1:226429961:19625] (90156281507023881)
11:04:39 Server udp/ip : 192.168.1.247:27015 (public 169.254.181.222:22216)
...
```
Players do `connect 90156281507023881`
# Troubleshooting
Make sure you have updated the server to the latest version. If you have Steam installed on the host machine, make sure it is updated.
