Alas, I see at least 5 crash-dumps on my server since remotely applying the update this afternoon. I will troubleshoot when I get home from the office later to ensure it's not any server-side mod's contributing, etc. (all the usual stuff). Where I am at right now I can't do that.
PS: I saw some stuff in various threads about SteamCMD -vs- HLDSUpdateTool. Is SteamCMD mandatory on TF2 now? If so, must have missed that. I kinda thought that was limited in scope to certain 3rd party mods distributed through Steam. PPS: Think I just accidentally did a reply to the digest without editing a bit ago.
