Any Windows users experiencing steamcmd updating itself repeatedly? We know that it can happen immediately after an update, if you are talking to different web hosts that are hosting the manifests and content, the different web hosts can be temporarily out of sync while the update propagates. But it should not persist this long after an update has been released. Those of you having the problem, do you have anything custom in your config that might be exposing the bug? (using http proxy, forcing Steam to talk to particular servers, etc) -----Original Message----- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Doctor McKay Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2013 6:35 AM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] steamcmd loop Same thing happened to me.
