Re: [hlds_apps] Valve/Steam IDs

The "version" command will give you the version, and any build after 
2409 will have the new syntax (for MetaMod based mods this isn't 
useful). Early next week there will be a 3.1.1.1c win32 build, and at 
that point you can use the version string in valve/sierra.inf (or simply 
the files existance) to check for the new format (all 3.1.1.1 users 
should upgrade to 3.1.1.1c).

You can convert between the two formats by simply using the last 64 bits 
as either two 32 bit ints (on 3.1.1.1) or one 64bit int (on 3.1.1.0).

I see. So it is STEAM_16:32:32 instead of STEAM_16:64.


This change is in effect for 3.1.1.1c servers and onwards. 


Does that mean we're faced with two different formats at the same time,
depending on what version the server is? Is there ar quick way to find
out in a serverside mod to find out what server version the addon is
running on? A callback, a hidden cvar, an ident string to parse?
