I don't think they'll be happy to change it

So you're saying because you don't got problems with it. Valve should
keep it?
It's not TF2 and DoD:S that are affected. Even GMod is affected by it
and our achievement system in there works with SteamIDs and uniqueIDs. I
need to program myself an application that changes 26000 text files.
Can someone explain the change to me?
Is there some reason for it?
Should I just make GMod change it back to the old format?

If you need to change 26000 text files due to this change I respectfully
suggest you need to look at the design of you system.

I don't know if you actually can do that. Since it's a Orange Box engine
update and not yours.
Anyways, unblock me on G-Talk or whatever if you need more info about
this (and if you want).

A lot of people already started updating their plugins for the new SteamID
format or their database, do you think they'll want to change it again?

Yeah I know. But when developping our system we didn't expect any
SteamID chances.
My tool will work fine though (almost done with it).

The main change is that the STEAM_0: is now STEAM_1:, and STEAM_ID_PENDING
no longer exists (replaced by STEAM_0:0:0 I think). Because this changed and
we have no clue how the UniqueID gets derived, me and Ywa have to convert
all the text files. Nobody saw this coming, and probably shouldn't have
I thought someone had posted the algorithm to convert between SteamIDs and
32-bit integers, but in case they didn't:

That example is in C, I believe, and a quick google search should turn up
similar results for PHP.
