PLAY DAY OF DEFEAT: SOURCE

Day of Defeat: Source rebuilds Valve's WWII teamplay classic on the Source engine, where you take infantry, sniper or machine-gunner roles. Players connect from Steam on Windows or Linux; Steam lists no current macOS build and there is no console version. The cap is your plan's 12, 24 or 32 slots.

SOURCEMOD AND METAMOD:SOURCE

Turn on Install SourceMod in Settings, then press Update and reinstall on the same page: the panel takes a backup, updates the game and installs the newest SourceMod and Metamod:Source. Your plugins live in dod/addons/sourcemod. Later reinstalls keep server.cfg, mapcycle.txt, motd.txt, SourceMod admins and databases, your plugins and your maps.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Day of Defeat: Source server hosting questions we get asked most. Support can take the rest.

View FAQView FAQsKnowledgebaseKnowledgebase
Do I need a Steam Game Server Login Token?
No, the field is optional. Leave Steam Game Login Token blank and the server starts without one. If you have a token, paste the 32-character value and the panel adds it to the startup line with +sv_setsteamaccount from the next start.
Is this the classic Day of Defeat?
No, this is the Source-engine remake. The original GoldSrc version is a separate product on this site.
How do I set an RCON password?
Type it into the RCON password field in Settings. The panel writes it, together with your server name, into dod/cfg/pnh_autoexec.cfg each time the server starts, and RCON stays off while the field is empty. Use letters, numbers, dashes or underscores, up to 30 characters.
Can I stop the server from updating?
Yes. Auto-update server is on by default and checks Steam for a game update every time the server starts. Switch it off in Settings and the server stays on the build it has; Update and reinstall then skips the Steam update too. AlliedModders only supports SourceMod on the latest release of a game, so plan updates with that in mind.
How much does a Day of Defeat: Source server cost at PlayNHost?
Day of Defeat: Source plans start at US$5.99 (€5.49) a month with 2 GB RAM and 12 player slots, up to US$17.99 (€15.49) with 8 GB RAM and 32 player slots. That is the regular monthly price, before any first-month discount, and every plan includes DDoS protection, SFTP and 24/7 support.
What do you get with a Day of Defeat: Source server at PlayNHost?
A Day of Defeat: Source server at PlayNHost comes with: In-Panel Settings Editor. You choose the region when you order (Europe, North America, South America, Asia or Australia), and setup starts as soon as payment clears.
