FAQ

It doesn't work!

If you find a bug, take a look at the open issues. If it's not already reported, open a new one and attach the log.

Headshot Box won't start and the log mentions java.net.BindException: Address already in use

If you're absolutely positively sure that you don't already have an instance of Headshot Box running then probably another program is listening on port 4000. In this case, edit the headshotbox.bat/headshotbox.sh file and change 4000 to whatever port you like.

Log mentions Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AssertionError: Assert failed: (zero? (:exit proc))

It's either a bug or, if you're on Windows, you may have forgot to install Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for VS 2013.

Why is a player missing from the Player List when I have just 1 demo with that player?

Player List only displays players with more than 1 demo. Headshot Box computes stats for all the players in the demos, so the list would be pretty big if it would list all of them (eg. if you solo queue in MM for 100 matches there should be ~1000 players in the list)

Does it work with POV demos?

No.

Does it work with Valve/ESEA/FACEIT demos?

Yep.

Does it work with CEVO demos?

Nope (I don't use CEVO and CEVO doesn't allow demo downloads unless you pay or play so I didn't bother).

Why does the ESEA match page lists less assists than HeadshotBox?

HeadshotBox counts all assists displayed in death notices. Valve awards assists more easily than ESEA (ie. you need to deal less damage to get it).

Why do the watch buttons work only when CS:GO is closed?

I don't know if it's possible to send playdemo commands (or any other request) to a CS:GO instance.

Watch button doesn't work on Linux?

• The watch button doesn't work for demo file names that contain the '~' char (gets expanded to the home dir) or spaces (sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. volvo pls)
• Highlights don't work on linux (volvo pls)
