@echo off
start "" C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\Bannerlord\steamcmd\steamcmd.exe +login anonymous anonymous +force_install_dir C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\Bannerlord +app_update 1863440 +quit
  1. Right-click BannerlordInstall.bat and Run as Administrator
  2. Your game server files should be completely downloaded by now

Step 2: Setting up an Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord Dedicated Server

  1. Create a batch file named StarServer.bat in your newly created Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord server folder from step 1
  2. Place the following code in this batch file:
cd C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\Bannerlord\
start /wait /REALTIME bin\Win64_Shipping_Server\DedicatedCustomServer.Starter.exe start "" /MIN /NORMAL ".\DedicatedCustomServer.Starter.exe" -log /dedicatedcustomserverauthtoken /dedicatedcustomserverconfigfile config.txt /port 28777 _MODULES_*Native*Multiplayer*_MODULES_ exit"
