Hi Taylor,
a suggestion for the "anonymous" accounts: If they get implemented (what I hope), could you add a possibility to install a game by using steamcmd + command line parameters only? That a CS:GO installation could look like this: steamcmd.exe -app_update 740 -force_install_dir c:\csgo-ds [-username username -password password] This would be handy for every automated process to update gameservers and it would keep the advantages from the classic hlds update tool. - Andreas From: [email protected] [mailto:csgo_servers-bounces at list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Taylor Sherman Sent: Monday, May 14, 2012 9:20 PM To: csgo_servers at list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [Csgo_servers] CSGO Update server tool Hi all, The new Steam console client will be replacing the existing HldsUpdateTool. Games will move to the new client as we migrate them to the new HTTP (Steam Pipe) download system. Regarding the login - we may add an "anonymous" login mode in the future, but that's not certain yet. Right now, it is of course necessary because the CS:GO server is an access-controlled product. regards, Taylor From: [email protected] [mailto:csgo_servers-bounces at list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Travis Brown Sent: Saturday, May 12, 2012 8:02 AM To: csgo_servers at list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [Csgo_servers] CSGO Update server tool I would say this is just untill the game ships. Its so not anyone can get the files. Once the game ships it will be on hldsupdatetool.

It seems extremely inconvinient to have login with your steam account to update a server (and also log out of your main account in your own pc before doing so). Blog says: "One quick note, this is new method of delivering the files and keeping them up to date. You will not see the servers in the tools section of Steam." so i'm very much wondering if the new tool is here to stay or not. Are the days coming back when you had separate login & password for server or is this just for the duration of the more or less private beta period? -ics _______________________________________________ Csgo_servers mailing list Csgo_servers at list.valvesoftware.com https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/csgo_servers -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
