This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I'm bumping this thread to say that my mod still has this problem (HL2). Nobody on the team can join a server together via our mod, though the steam accounts are fine elsewhere (HL2DM, CS:S, etc). My roommate can join if I create a server, regardless of what sv_lan is, but it seems that anything across the net gets rejected by steam.
Any ideas? Let me know if you need more details. I'm coming close to another alpha build that we'll be trying again on, but it's not like I've done anything to make a difference in that area between the last build and this one. -Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: Alfred Reynolds To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 7:36 PM Subject: RE: [hlcoders] "This Steam account is being used in another location" This fix has been made public. - Alfred Alfred Reynolds wrote: > We have released a fix for this in Beta form.
