I tried to set up a FoF server last night and was having problems.

I was getting these errors, and was unable to connect to the server from my client.

Client:
STEAM validation rejected

Console:
S3: Client connected with ticket for the wrong game: UserID: 2
S3: Client connected with ticket for the wrong game: UserID: 2



This appears to be some nonsense with the default steam_appid.txt (server APPID) in the root of the installation. There is also a fof/steam_appid.txt (client APPID) file, but that file is fine.

fof/steam_appid.txt has no end-of-line, and the server steam_appid.txt has a DOS end-of-line.

I simply deleted the default steam_appid.txt file and replaced it with a new one and it works fine. I guess the DOS line feed/end is a problem.

This may only be a problem on Linux, but I'm sending it out anyway as an FYI.
