@px: I don't want to sound disrespectful but there are really other more important issues than the sound echo thing. You could use a plugin or you could inform the players to type that command.
Now about the beta. I didn't get to test the latest release, but did anything changed, client side I mean? When I tested the last time I had an issue: everytime I alt-tabbed from the game to the desktop and back in game the game window wouldn't refill the screen. I mean if you run the game in 640x480 and your desktop resolution is 1024x768 when alt-tabbing to the game you would be stucked with a window covering 1/2 of the screen and the funny thing was that when hovering the cursor over the position of the menus in this window wouldn't work, it was like the buttons were where they should be (you could hear the sound they make when moving the mouse in the lower corner, outside the game window). It needs to be said it did blocked the redirection, sometimes with "the server's map differs from yours" or another one, something not being able to download the map I think. But I don't think that would suffice to stop them keeping those redirect servers running because of *cough* the nonsteam players who will still be redirected to the nonsteam servers that use those things in the first place.Maybe something like if there are running 10 or more servers from a single ip that should ring a bell and do some kind of checks to see if they are legite servers (like servers of a community/war servers running on the same ip). I really don't know what kind of workaround should be done to manage all this situation, but I'm pretty sure just blocking the connect command from server to the player will not be enough to get that list cleaned up, because that's the main problem, not necesarilly that you are redirected, but because the server list it's clogged with those redirect servers. My first time when I use this, hope this post gets where it should (it didn't :))... and sorry about my English. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
