Do you run a Steam client on the same computer? If yes, then it's a bug in Steam and there are two solutions for you:
1. Activate the Beta Update in your Steam client (Steam -> Settings -> Account -> Beta participation -> Change). Your gameserver should start fine then. 2. Or Add the following two lines to your batch script before the server starts: reg add "HKCU\Software\Valve\Steam\ActiveProcess" /v SteamClientDll /t REG_SZ /d "" /f reg add "HKCU\Software\Valve\Steam\ActiveProcess" /v SteamClientDll64 /t REG_SZ /d "" /f Both should help to get rid of that LAN only thing From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Steve Kovack Sr. Sent: Friday, February 21, 2014 6:39 PM To: hlds list Subject: [hlds] TF2 server not connecting to Steam It seems since the Feb 7th update my TF2 server won't connect to Steam (LAN only). I have these ports forwarded 3478-4380, 27000-27050. I have a HL2DM server running on the same system that connects just fine. I tried adding sv_setsteamaccount ************** command to my server config and there was no difference.
