Hi guys, I'm really hoping someone can help me with this because I've tried
many things and none of them have solved the problem:
I'm the programmer for KZMod (which runs on Source SDK Base 2006) and I'm
encountering this message when trying to join listen servers via the server
browser. The message does not occur when joining dedicated servers running the
same files nor does it occur when direct connecting to listen servers. Here is
some more details:
Recently a change was made involving sv_master_legacy_mode, I believe that the
steam master servers no longer respond to legacy requests. This in itself isn't
a problem, since setting sv_master_legacy_mode to 0 causes servers to be listed
on the master server (although sv_master_legacy_mode defaults to 1 on Source
SDK Base 2006, so servers are by default unlisted?), I programmed KZMod to do
this automatically so it's not an issue. However, with this change to
sv_master_legacy_mode 0 has come the version does not match error, and having
read archives of this mailing list, I've tried using a steam.inf with just the
appID in the file by itself at 215, which doesn't solve the problem, I've tried
manually modifying the PatchVersion parameter which succeeds in making
dedicated servers inacessible depending on the number compared to the client's,
but doesn't allow access to listen servers. I've also tried copying SDK Base's
steam.inf in or using HL2MP's, but this causes servers to become unlisted and
recieve regular "MasterRequestRestart" messages in the console.
KZMOD's GameInfo.txt searchpaths to the gameinfo path and hl2. Adding
sourcetest to this causes MasterRequestRestart messages and unlisting, most
likely because it's using the steam.inf from SDK Base 2006.
It seems that Source SDK Base 2007 doesn't have this issue, but we are close to
our release date and porting is really a last resort, additionally another
popular mod, Hidden:Source also uses SDK Base 2006, so if anyone could advise
me on any solution to this problem, I'd be very grateful.
Regards,
Peter McKeown
Programmer, KZMod
