Corrupt Download Dota 2
This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. Sep 27, 2015 hey guys welcome back to another video i had this steam error that said download corrupt or the download would not even start at all so i decided to go and d.
I've been trying to download (install) Dota 2 for the first time on my 1 TB HDD, but each time (I've tried three times) it would fail near the end, saying that the download is corrupt. Following several suggestions online, I've tried verifying the game cache (it just says it's okay each time), and trying a different download region (from Philippines to Singapore).Here are the logs from /.local/share/Steam/logs:At around lines 600-700 the logs show 'Corrupt staging file, first corrupt chunk at 0, total 1 (Read Error)'.Then later on I found out that it may be because it may be incompatible with NTFS, as discussed and, from 2014.The drive is NTFS as I used it for dual-booting with Windows. (Though now I've decided to just stick with Arch, but I still have my files there so I can't just reformat it.) Here's my fstab. ## /etc/fstab: static file system information## # /dev/sdb2UUID=db650224-b6ee-412f-aeec-d9bc80b6fb1a/ ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered0 1# /dev/sdb1UUID=6A49-687E /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro0 2/dev/sda1 /data ntfs-3g defaults0 0So, should I try to make a separate ext partition? Should I consider installing/downloading it on my 250 GB SSD instead (concern here is the lifespan of the SSD; Dota 2 is 7.0 GB and updates frequently)?
Should I try out Wine?Thanks.Last edited by jddantes (2017-01-05 12:51:34). The SSD lifespan story is FUD in the majority of user scenarios. PC gamers have been installing their games on SSD's for years and doing so was one of the reasons SSD's became popular beyond the high end segment. Playing popular games will not kill your SSD any faster than whatever else you might have in mind to do with it. Most of the SSD pants wetting comes from the days of cheap flash drives being sold as 'SSD' in the early days of 'netbooks'. I probably wouldn't put the swap partition of a high traffic server on an SSD, if you don't need the performance, but that's it.
Dota 2 Application Download
Please excuse me if this is not the correct forum for this, but I can't get a solution anywhere.Dota 2 Reborn used to run flawlessly on my laptop with Ubuntu 16.04. Ever since the 7.0 update of Dota 2, whenever an update was downloaded, I got a 'corrupt update files' error. I tried reinstalling it - still got the same error.
Steam Corrupt Download Dota 2
It tries to re-download whenever I try to play the game.Next, I tried reinstalling Steam. I deleted Dota, completely removed Steam and then reinstalled it. Even now I get the same error on downloading Dota again.All other Steam games that I have run fine. Dota 2 itself runs perfectly fine on the same machine on Windows 10.Has anybody had this kind of situation? Any pointer on how to get around this issue would be helpful - I hate depending on Windows for gaming.
