[hlds_linux] Legality of accepting old protocol 47 clients to Steam hlds server ?
Hello, i have e-mailed Valve yesterday but still no response regarding this issue: We have a small gaming community where few volunteers want to put together a Steam Counterstrike 1.6 dedicated linux server and they insist running the dproto plugin (that allows old protocol 47 clients) is legal while i doubt there is the case. Can we find the legal official stand point regarding this dual protocol server possibility?

[hlds_linux] All old server tokens invalidated by new CSGO System?
So there's a mess in the CSGO_Servers list right now as Valve introduced an update which will be enforcing login tokens and disabling anonymous login. It only applies to CSGO but looking at my account page, all of my old server tokens are gone. Am I just blind or did all tokens get wiped by this? ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Important changes to TF2 coming soon
This is one thing I can't stand about the mailing list. VALVE FIX THIS IT'S BROKEN WE DON'T LIKE IT *valve releases fix V1* VALVE THIS FIX IS BAD IT FIXED THE PROBLEM BUT WE DON'T LIKE IT *valve releases fix V2* VALVE WHY DID YOU PUT RESTRICTIONS IN PLACE THAT SOLVE THE ISSUES WE WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT NOW WE CAN'T DO WHAT WE WANT Seriously. You guys expect them to be able to fix the problems without changing anything else. I for one think these changes are a good idea. I'm running 3 servers with consistent player counts. I've had no major drops in traffic since the change. Quickplay didn't do much for me as most of my traffic comes from my playerbase. Just build up a community and you wont need to depend on quickplay. Can't fill 15 servers? Cut back to 10 you can fill. Don't complain to Valve that there are servers changing the gameplay in ways you don't like and then when they restrict that complain that now you can't change the gameplay. You may be changing it to a lesser amount, but still. How are they supposed to restrict it for the bad servers yet allow the good servers to do the same things to a lesser extent?

CHANGES TO QUICKPLAY --- The next TF2 update will make two changes to quickplay: * Show servers button. This runs the ordinary quickplay search, but instead of joining the server with the highest score, it presents the user with an ordered list of about 20 servers and lets them pick. This gives players much of the convenience of quickplay by finding servers with a good ping and players on them, but also an easy way to express a preference over the map, server community, etc. * We've added an advanced options page that allows players to opt into the most commonly-requested non-vanilla rules changes: nocrits, maxplayers, and instant respawn. There are no more scoring penalties for maxplayers or rule changes; your server either matches their search criteria or it doesn't. At this time, we are keeping the default quickplay option to Valve servers. However, note that if a player wants to find a server with any of the supported modifications, then they must land on a community server, since Valve servers do not run with these settings. We've updated the quickplay policy to more clearly specify what sorts of server modifications are allowed in quickplay: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2825-AFGJ-3513 STEAM GAMESERVER ACCOUNTS - Gameserver accounts are now a Steam feature. The feature is currently in beta. Using a steam gameserver account provides one important advantage right now: client favorite lists are keyed by the Steam account if present. This means that you can move your server to another IP address, and clients who have your server in their favorites or history will follow you to your new location. CREATING AN ACCOUNT: Creating an account is currently only possible via WebAPI. (Remember, this feature is currently in beta. We'll add a nicer interface for this soon.) Make a HTTPS POST request to the following URL: https://api.steampowered.com/IGameServersService/CreateAccount/v0001/ The POST arguments should be: appid=440 (for Team Fortress) key=your WebAPIKey your WebAPIKey is the WebAPI key associated with the user account that will own the server accounts. See http://steamcommunity.com/dev for how to get one of these. (WARNING: Make sure and keep this key secret. This key is an authentication token in some respects and makes it possible to do certain actions on your behalf. Don't feed the key into anybody's nice convenient web page that automates this. With your WebAPI key they could impersonate you for some actions. If you don't want to go through the pain of making a WebAPI call, just wait until we have a nicer interface implemented.) The output of the WebAPI will be the (permanent) SteamID of your gameserver, and a login token. The login token is a random string of text that allows you to actually login to your account. You can view a list of the servers owned by a user account by making a HTTPS GET call to: https://api.steampowered.com/IGameServersService/ GetAccountList/v0001/?key=yourkeyhttps://api.steampowered.com/ IGameServersService/GetAccountList/v0001/?key=%3cyourkey LOGGING IN TO YOUR ACCOUNT (TF only for now): Once you have a gameserver login token, you can specify your login credentials on a Source engine server by executing this console command sometime before it loads the first map: sv_setsteamaccount login token The server output should make it clear when you are using a Steam gameserver account and when you are logging in anonymously. (The ordinary gameserver login that has always been used.) Remember, for now you will need to login to both your Steam gameserver account and also your TF account. The two accounts are not related. The TF account is the one that determines quickplay eligibility, and the Steam one does favorites migration. Eventually we will remove the TF accounts and only use Steam gameserver accounts. HOW FAVORITES MIGRATION WORKS: In the next few days we will release an updated Steam Client beta that knows how to migrate favorites. On the client, each favorite has an IP:port and a gameserver account. The account might be empty --- that will of course be the case for all previously existing

Valve seem to think pinion are their partners so I doubt they'll do anything. Makes little sense in my opinion because if ctf_turbine can generate money with stamps then I'm sure valve could find a better way of monetising running a server in exchange for giving players some worthless digital tat. MvM tickets weren't a bad idea. Sell a multiplayer ticket and if you win a round you get a sprogget, collect 20 sproggets and you get a wedge. 10 wedges gives you a token. Craft 5 tokens into a statue part. With all 3 statue parts collected you get a golden ticket to enter a master server to play for the main prize. Win the round on the master server and you get a special 'TF2 multiplayer trading card which can be sold on the market for as much as 5 pence. Now, valve simply share a portion of the 5p generated by selling the trading card amongst the servers you played on to collect the 3000 items needed to create the golden ticket. They can use the £3000 for the tickets to pay the community members who create the sproggets, wedges, tokens and statue parts as well as the winning trading cards and unusual hats. Hats? Yep, one in a thousand golden tickets will win an unusual hat - unique to this game mode. In this case, because there's no 5p generated, Valve send the server owners a picture of the winning user wearing the hat. -- Dan __**_ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.**com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/**hlds_linux https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Mandatory TF2 update released
Why is every server restart validating the install, redowloading updates and removing the replay.cfg file since the update yesterday? Has any one else noticed this? 2013/11/2 Frank ad...@gamerscrib.net Every year is the same thing, we spend 2-3 days if not longer thru several updates to fix issues from this and other large updates like it. Never in the last few years have they ever extended the event just for this although I agree I believe they should. Issue I have with just even asking is the event itself was delayed way too long and too close to Halloween (which is now gone). The Xmas update IMO should be released no later than the 2nd week of December to at least give the holiday feel as with most of us we can't wait for the 25th to come and go - at least that is how I feel, too much holiday food will kill anyone. -Original Message- From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Bruno Garcia Sent: Friday, November 01, 2013 10:04 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Mandatory TF2 update released Eric, Due to issues with the server and client binaries these past two days: shouldn't the Halloween event be extended for 2 or 3 more days to compensate the users?

Re: [hlds_linux] Is sv_tags event247 broken after the update?
http://tf2stats.net/map/plr_hightower_event TF2stats is reporting over 2300 servers running the map and about 17,500 people playing it. That's about 7.6 players per server. If Valve only put up 76 servers, they are not the ones taking the traffic. It's the loads of community owners trying to get the traffic. Looking at the server list, there are a ton of clans that all put up 25+ servers running the map, all running ads. Even someone in this mailing thread stated that none of their 18 servers were getting traffic. I don't want to turn this into an ad debate, but it appears to me that there are a lot of people out there just hoping to profit off of the traffic from the update. I'm also seeing a ton of 32/33 slot servers using dynamic slot hiding to get them full with quickplay and then up it to get more people.

Re: [hlds_linux] Is sv_tags event247 broken after the update?
The Valve servers may affect the traffic, but not as much as it's been affected. It's the over saturation of servers in general, especially from the clans that put up 25+ event servers hoping for traffic. Skial is running 16, Saigns is running 30, etc. Yes the 76 Valve put up will affect the traffic, but there seems to be more to this honestly. The past 2 days have been 24/7 traffic, suddenly it plummets for a ton of people. Part of it may be more servers have been put up, but the fact everyone started having issues after the update seems to point to something else.

Re: [hlds_linux] Source engine games Steampipe conversion schedule
Thanks Fletch! On Mon, Apr 1, 2013 at 2:00 PM, Fletcher Dunn fletch...@valvesoftware.comwrote: Hello! Here is the expected schedule for the conversion of Source engine games to SteamPipe: Day of Defeat: Source: already happened Half-life 2: Deathmatch: Wednesday, April 3 (DAY AFTER TOMORROW) Counter-Strike: Source: Tuesday, April 16 Team Fortress 2: Tuesday, April 23 Our goal is to repeat the process that we used with the Day of Defeat: Source switchover last week. The beta dedicated server (The SteamPipe version of the dedicated server) is actually the exact same server installation that will host the clients after the switchover. We will try to avoid releasing a dedicated server update near the time of the client switchover, so that SteamPipe dedicated servers can be up and ready, and as clients switchover to SteamPipe, those dedicated servers will be ready to host them. One note concerning the TF2 beta. As you probably know, it's currently a separate app. (The TF2 beta client is App ID 520 and the TF2 beta dedicated server is AppID 229830.) About a week before the TF2 switchover, we'll initiate a beta process identical to the one used for the other games. We'll release the Steampipe version of the official dedicated server (App ID 232250) and an opt-in client beta available from the betas tab for the regular Team Fortress 2 application (App ID 440). This beta client will have all the same content as the regular game, will talk to the same item server as the regular client, and will have all the same items in your backpack. It will be running App ID 440, not 520. The only difference is that it will be using the new file system with VPK files, it will have a different PatchVersion in the steam.inf file, and will only be able to connect to SteamPipe servers. To avoid confusion between the two different types of TF2 betas, at that time we will deactivate the beta client app 520 and dedicated server app 229830. We'll have further details on this process when we release the official dedicated server. If you have questions that are not answered by this FAQ, now is the time to ask! https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7388-QPFN-2491 Thanks, Fletch ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Start/stop a recording with one button like this for example. bind HOME record test; stop -- ofc you can change home to what you like more. ics skrev 2012-12-11 19:54: He was correct, it's not a cheat. Sometimes HUD is different from your team, wrong color. Sometimes players or parts of them go invisible. Starting demo record and stopping it will fix it. -ics 11.12.2012 20:24, The Mighty Gerbil kirjoitti: Sorry forgot to edit the subject line so I am re-sending the question I just asked XD. I was on a pub yesterday and witnessed either... An invisible Pyro running in front of a Demo reflecting multiple rockets I shot at the Demo. or It could of been the Demo reflecting the rockets. When I posed the question if anyone else was seeing it or if it was a hack and one player indicated it was a known client issue that fails to render players. I just want to know if he was being honest and the bug exists or if he was feeding me a line and it was a hack. Either way it seems like a pretty major issue to have.

Re: [hlds_linux] Servers still getting stuck, freezing, 100% CPU.
I run multiple servers with no bots, not even replay and it happens on a regular basis. It mainly happens on my Gamemode server (which happens to be windows). Might be a plugin causing it though. My trade server (linux) has this problem sometimes, and it has no bots.

The problem is, the way it works. How the models work is it has a skin, and a separate model. The skin turns the model green, and parts transparent., and then the game parents a separate model to the main model.

Wondering if that will be a problem. Regarding the previous TF2 issues my server have been experienced since the MvM stuff launched. I am still getting crashes. But, now they only appear to be at map-change. What's weird, is on my primary server, I only run one (custom) map - which has never caused any issues like this before. Now, when one team finishes capping all the capture-points, it crashes, drops everybody - then restarts on it's own. Haven't had time to put much into troubleshooting. I killed some SM plugins that I thought might be related, but haven't had time to disable SM and MM:S entirely, let it run, etc. Is anybody else still getting TF2 crashes during map change or cycle, or map-based end-round type events (capture all points, reach ctf playing-to threshold, etc.)? ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

So the new mode is a 6 player/slots per server game? On 2012-08-14 07:46, Cameron Munroe wrote: Is there anyway we can preemptively setup a server?

(Regular PvP traffic or MvM traffic.) Set tf_mm_servermode 2 to be placed in the MvM pool. * For MvM matchmaking, if 6 players are sent to your server to start a new game, it will switch to whatever map the players selected. * You will need a TF gameserver account to accept matchmaking traffic. * You can switch the server in and out of any matchmaking mode pool or back to any regular game mode at any time. * The CPU usage for a 6 player MvM game is about the same as for a regular TF server. (Yep, this mode requires significantly more CPU cycles per player than the PvP mode, that's an unfortunate fact.) Given the surge of players that comes with any major release, and the player / server ratio of this game mode, the demand for MvM servers will probably be high. We expect that a large number of players will want to try out the new mode, so we will be converting most of our servers to host MvM, and then adjust the allocation based on what players are playing.

Re: [hlds_linux] Understanding choke / tweaking for lag
Sorry for duplicate answers, but: Choke is when the player can't receive all the packets that the server are sending. look at your min and max cmdrate values and you can perhaps find a solution.

Re: [hlds_linux] netspike.txt
yes it looks like debuggin info of some sort. My two servers have those files to and both are 2.0Gb each On 2012-07-11 11:20, Jesse Molina wrote: Interesting. This file has indeed appeared on some servers on a host which I manage. In one case, the file is now 1.3GB in size. I suspect Valve has noticed the same thing I noticed. When the Pyromania update came out, I noticed that my host was using much more bandwidth than usual. There seemed to be a spike happening, intermittently, for limited periods of time. I observed a 30% traffic in/out increase for 30-60 seconds at a time. All clients on all servers on that particular host, and all servers on that host, would suddenly start sending much more data, for no apparent reason. I only have a 10base-T uplink on this host, so I am limited to 10Mbps. All four of the servers were full that day. However, due to the traffic spikes, we had to shut one of them down to prevent exceeding the circuit limitation. This is how the issue first came to my attention. I did a tcpdump of the traffic but whatever the issue was, it was embedded in the game traffic itself and was being represented by all clients on all four servers at the exact same time. If I was to guess, something like an authentication request or item-server related activity was suddenly causing all clients and the server to suddenly transmit much more data. Whatever it was, it would have been something that affected all clients across those four servers on the same host. Valve would have noticed huge spikes like this since ALL of their servers and clients would suddenly start transmitting 20-30% more traffic. I am guessing they are trying to debug the problem by collecting evidence. That's just a guess though. Russell Smith wrote: What is this file?

Delist them then the only people playing on them are illegals.
The point is those servers have the ability to pull legit players out of
the pool of available players for us legit admins to have on our legit
servers, if the cracked servers are delisted then legit clients won't even
see them.
So it really would make a difference.
A huge one.
No-steam master servers are irrelevant because legit clients don't know
about them, they aren't even worth mentioning.
It doesn't matter if the servers are delisted or not because the steam
underground community run their own master servers. Generally the servers
the support nonsteam clients are filled with them anyway.
But I do agree that they shouldn't be on the master list.

Any plugins that modify server browser communications (or modify the information contained in those packets) are counter to those goals. The following guidelines are self-evident: * All of the data you report to clients and to Steam must be accurate. * You must use the Source engine, using the steam libraries, to send all server-browser-related communications. * Do not modify or manually send any packets to Steam. * Do not modify or manually send any client ping replies.

We have not taken action against individual servers, but rather against an entire related server group. Hopefully the necessity for this policy is clear. We took two different actions, depending on the severity of modification we found: * Preventing IP addresses from logging a TF gameserver account, which excludes them from quickplay. * Delisting IP addresses from the master server (server browser and Quick Match system) for one month.
