Ever since the new Steam update, my mod has been having problems with dedicated servers.
Before the Steam update, I copied my mod into /SteamApps/username/source dedicated server/ and then when I launched the Dedicated Server program from within Steam, the mod would show up in the list of games that you could run a dedicated server with. After the Steam update, with no changes at all to the mod, the mod no longer shows up in the dropdown of available games in the Dedicated Server program and if I try to start it manually via the command line then it doesn't work. I tried testing this by using the updated SDK to create a new DM mod. I did not change any of the files created by the DM mod except for the game name in GameInfo.txt so I could tell it apart from the others. I compiled the DM code to put in the /bin directory for that mod but did not modify the code at all. I then copied this mod directory into /SteamApps/username/source dedicated server/ like I had done before and it showed up in the list of available games to run a dedicated server for. When I ran the dedicated server using the unmodified DM mod, none of the animations worked at all and whenever anyone was killed it would just say that player "unconnected" suicided. If I ran a listen (non-dedicated server) using this DM mod, then everything worked fine and animations and death messages and all were working. Something is broken in Source Dedicated Server since the new Steam update. Can anyone from Valve comment on this? _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
