I mean not 'How to create dedicated server'. I mean 'How can I find it'. As I said on the second post: 'I have legal copy of the game 'Half-Life'. I done simple research during an hour: I opened server browser, connected to various servers and then pressed Shift+TAB to open Steam Community in-game. After that I navigated to Players->Current game and saw 'No Steam users reported by game server' every time! Tell me where I can find Steam servers? I don't know they all is cracked in Steam Server Browser list.' > Even though it's true that the most-played European TFC server is a non-Steam > server (aimaster).. It's the proof that NOT only a handful of people do not own. On the contrary I know a very few people who own HL. It's the main problem. And the others - is just consequences. And AIMaster servers DO NOT CRACKED. They run copies downloaded via HLDSUpdateTool but have free Metamod & AMX Mod X plugins too and additional plugin that allows players who didn’t buy the game play the multiplayer. But ALL of downloaded Valve files are left unchanged. And any case I ask the question that does not involve conception 'cracked server'. I simply want to know : Can Valve delist servers from Steam Server Browser list intentionally? I mean something like ‘ban’ them. If this list has at least some meaning you can help me find out. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
