Thanks for that. I am running into this issue with steamcmd.sh, even when trying to run it as root;
[ 0%] Checking for available updates... [ 0%] Download complete. [----] Verifying installation... [----] !!! Fatal Error: Steam failed to load: *SteamStartEngine(0xff949f60) failed with error 1: Failed to create directory /somedir/tf2/Steam/SteamApps Google doesn't turn up with any results when I google that. I have tried to remove the /Steam directory, but it recreates them and then errors out on the same error. Any idea what's up with that?

Saint K: This has all the technical info you should need for getting the SteamPipe version of the TF2 server: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD If you find you need further instructions with regard to migration of your data (/mostly/ just transferring your custom stuff, like addons, cfg, mapcycle,etc), there is a lot of good info in the HLDS(_Linux too) archives and on google (including some youtube tutorials) to assist further :) Sorry if this isn't what you were asking about and I misunderstood or somesuch. If so, feel free to reply, whether publicly or privately. For realtime support there's also #HLServerAdmins on gamesurge (general srcds) and #sourcemod (also gamesurge) for sourcemod/metamod stuffs (though, I have a feeling you know that one :P) -Jeff On Apr 30, 2013 12:17 PM, "Saint K." <sai...@specialattack.net> wrote: > I have kind off missed the entire discussion on SteamPipe. > > Will instructions etc. be posted along with the coming update/switch? > > Saint K. > ________________________________________ > From: hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [ > hlds_linux-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] on behalf of Fletcher Dunn [ > fletch...@valvesoftware.com] > Sent: 30 April 2013 21:07 > To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list ( > h...@list.valvesoftware.com); Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing > list (hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com); > hlds_annou...@list.valvesoftware.com > Subject: [hlds_linux] TF2 SteamPipe beta update released.
