That's a different bug. These players have a legitimate STEAMID. I'm not 100% sure, but I'm thinking the SteamID you get is linked with your account, not your key - the key just grants you access to the content...right?
Not really sure, but all the same, STEAM_ID_PENDING is an unverified user, you usually get it on listen servers where the host ID isn't verified. With this thing, the user gains a legitimate STEAMID without entering a CD key. - Bruce "Bahamut" Andrews -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 29 September 2004 12:42 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlds] RE: VAC... and Steam keygens I've had players on recently with "STEAM_ID_PENDING" that have been playing for over 2 or 3 map changes (DoD server). I haven't been following this thread 100%, but exactly what does the server/admin see with these players on? ----- Original Message ----- From: "K.
