<br /Compete and co-operate with your friends!
This package includes a client mod and a server application that allow you to connect to each other, share your stats, chat, co-develop games, sabotage and more.
Please use the server browser feature and do not post your server IPs in seperate topics! You’ll get more traffic that way, and the forum will not get cluttered with GDTMP server topics.
GDTMP is licensed under CAAAANASFMTDMYBLWTHITICDATSPL. Programmers can get the horrible source code of the server here (older versions here). You can also develop your mods/plugins/extensions for both the client and server! More information below.
**Warnings (read!)**
- This mod is very prone to cheating, but it’s mainly intended for private games between friends There is no way to prevent cheating without making pretty much everything server-side.
- It should also be compatible with most other mods, but it won’t interact with them, except their added topics, platforms, and researches.
- I strongly recommend that you use this mod to backup your saves before enabling GDTMP. Like all other mods GDTMP could screw up your save data.
Translations
GDTMP is now available in multiple languages. The translations, including those to a language that is not included in Game Dev Tycoon by default, can be enabled in the regular language list in the settings menu. The following languages are available:
- Chinese (Simplified)
- English
- French
- German
- Portuguese (Brazil)
- Russian
- Serbian (Latin)
- Spanish
- Swedish
- Turkish
If you are interested in translating GDTMP to your language, PM me. Knowing some JavaScript isn’t necessary but it will help you avoid errors.

Mods that use GDTMP for online interaction
Starting in version 0.5.0, other mods are be able to use this mod as an API for online features. Below is a list of mods that do this. If you’re interested in extending GDTMP with your mod, check this basic documentation out. If you want to mod the server, you have plugins, extensions, and macros. Your mod must have its own thread with a download link to be featured here.
Installation
Client
-
Download the client zip file and extract the “dmultiplayer” folder in the Game Dev Tycoon mods folder. (default location for Steam users is “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Game Dev Tycoon\mods”)
-
Start Game Dev Tycoon
-
Instead of loading the game, press Escape and click “Mods”
-
Enable the mod by clicking on it.
-
Restart the game and play
Server (Windows only, requires .NET 4)
-
Download the server zip file and extract it somewhere on your computer.
-
a) Console (better performance but harder to use): Run “dmultiplayersrv.exe”.
b) Full interface (worse performance but easier to use): Run “GDTMP Server.exe”. -
a) If you want to play with people over the internet (not on LAN), forward port 3966 (TCP) in your router. Click here for a port forwarding guide. Select your router brand, router model, then click “Default Guide” (just above the list of programs). There is also an experimental automatic port forwading feature (not guaranteed to work) which you can enable by typing “set autopf true” in the console and pressing enter, and then restarting the server software. You can find your public IP here.
b) If you want to play with people connected to your local WiFi network, you don’t have to do anything other than find out what your local IP is. There’s a guide for that here. -
I highly recommend typing “help” in the console to see what commands you can use, and typing “set help” to find out which settings you can change (such as time synchronization). If you’re using the GUI, you can change these settings through the settings window. If you want to run a public server, you should enable server browser support.

Player's guide
Connecting
Every time you start the game with the mod enabled, you will be asked for the IP of the server you want to connect to. Ask the host for the IP if you don’t know it already. If you don’t want to connect to a server, click “Cancel”.
Trading
About 2 years into the game, you should be able to research trading. This allows you to trade research points for cash with other players. Click your CEO to perform this.
Co-developing games
About one year later, you should be able to research co-development of games. After the research is complete, you can send co-development offers in the regular game development dialog.
Spying
About 7 years into the game, you should be able to research spying. This automatically informs you of what other players are researching and what’s happening to them in real time.
Advanced spying and sabotage
About 12 years into the game, you should be able to research advanced spying. This gives you advanced details on the targeted player’s company. Click your CEO to perform this.
About 15 years into the game, you should be able to research sabotage. You can either hack someone’s interviews and make them lose fans, corrupt their game in development (will fail if they are not developing a game), or asassinate an employee. Click your CEO to perform this.
Advanced spying and sabotage have some things in common. They both have a chance of failing, and a chance of getting you caught if they don’t fail. The chance of failing/getting caught rises as you move onto the more advanced sabotage options. However, you can lower those chances by increasing your budget in the pop-up dialog. Also, only the founder of the company can use these options.
Chat/log window
Press T to bring up the chat/log window. You can also use commands here.
Commands
- /commands - shows a list of client commands
- /mute [company/player] - mute messages from a certain player
- /srvsettings - shows server settings
- /tell [company/player] [message] - send a private message to a player
- /tellre [message] - private message the player you last sent a message to
- /unmute [company/player] - unmute messages from a certain player
Operators may also use some of the console commands (with a forward slash in the beginning), or all of them if the server has enabled extended operator privileges.
