As long as sv_lan is "0" all players are identified using their Steam IDs. If sv_lan is "1" then all players have STEAM_ID_LAN id.
But you said something about TF2 and L4D. What I said was true for HL1 servers, you have to check if "sv_filterban" CVAR is still available, probably "-nomaster" works differently (maybe there's no bug and you can simply use -nomaster and the server won't be listed to Internet tab and also will respond to queries), there are other IPs for Master Servers etc... -------- Original-Nachricht -------- > Datum: Thu, 23 Apr 2009 09:32:23 -0400 > Von: f0rkz <[email protected]> > An: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list > <[email protected]> > Betreff: Re: [hlds_linux] LAN game with steam IDs enabled > Will this enable use of steam ids?
