See that Counter-Strike thing there at the top? That's a mod. Not
only did it bring in great revenue by itself once Valve adopted it,
but it also made Steam a legitimate and popular platform. Valve
wouldn't be in the position they are right now without HL1 mods and
millions and million of people playing them. With appropriate
resources, anyone can make a platform like Steam- The problem is
getting people to use it. HL1 mods are what got people using Steam.
People = Money. And now it has tons of games and that is very
beneficial to Valve. And it's not just CS- There are a ton of mods
throughout the years that contributed to the success of Valve's online
presence. Without the strong mod community in HL1, I would fancy a
guess that Steam would either not exist or would be an irrelevancy.

reasonable solution here.

user messages. Anything that alters the behavior of a game
entities,
like our FF 1.1 to 1.11 we tweaked the assault cannon spinup time.
While technically not a breaking change in the sense that clients
can
join 1.1 servers and not get an error, the different values on each
side result in awkward behavior, and the newer client would appear
to
be shooting ineffectively earlier if the server was still using the
longer spinup time. It's not just a way to catch table mismatches
early, it's a way to keep client and servers in sync, and more
importantly, give clients an error message that means something.
There's no alternative to doing this but for the engine to ask the
mod. It's a bit short sighted that something like that doesn't
already
exist.

Your example is a bit misleading as to what would be needed. You
shouldn't include version numbers in the description of the mod.
You can always just add an sv_version cvar if you want a
stringified representation of the version.
The version that the srcds.exe/HL2.exe closed-source side of
things would be concerned with would only be incremented when the
new version was not backwards-compatible with the old version.
Usually this would occur when class tables changed. It might
also occur if usermessages needed to be interpreted differently,
or perhaps if there were a critical bug of some sort in a client
previous version and you wanted to prevent it from connecting to
a new server and causing havoc. If the compatibility_version of
the server differed from the client, then it would just pop up a
message with a link to the manual or developer_url websites
as defined in gameinfo.txt.
ConVar sv_version(sv_version, v6.1a beta);
void GameRules::GetGameDescription(char* description, int
compatibility_version)
{
description = My Mod;
compatibility_version = 4;
}
Another possibility would be to leverage some of the sv_pure
functionality to allow for specification of a list of sha1sums of
acceptable client.dll/server.dll on the client, for a given
version of the server. The only downside there would be that
you'd need to inform server hosts to add a new sha1sum to their
server list every time a new client version was released.

I was hoping you guys at Valve would enlighten us a bit on what to expect. The only things I've heard are from the Ep 2 video that was shown, regarding the new technologies put in, like the cinematic physics, enhanced foliage rendering and better expansive outdoor rendering. It'd be great to have a heads up on what we'll be receiving. It's not very fun to just throw us these new updates, and have us figure out whats new. Updates I'm hoping for is some enhancement with the Physics system to allow for better network predicting. Shaders to allow multiple passes, or dynamically change a shader for one model without having to switch skins of the models, and an increase on the limit of 64 instructions for the .fxc shaders. I've also been trying to implement my own physics, however its a bit hard to do with the standard line and ray traces we have. I know we won't be receiving SOLID_OBB or anything of that sorts, but this engine is suppose to be top of the line, and it is still using only AABB. I'm sure there is more things others have been hoping for, shedding some light on us would be much appreciated!
