RE: [hlcoders] Alfred...
We have released an update that will allow all 3rd party mods of the Source engine to run in secure mode. You do not need to do anything to enable this change, it is automatic. If you want to run an insecure server then add "-insecure" to the command line of the server. - Alfred Scuzzy wrote: > Alfred wrote: >> Rolling back won't secure your mod, all you will do it expose >> your server to exploits we have since fixed and various other bugs. > > Original Question: >>> Could someone at valve comment on the official situation regarding >>> VAC and third party mods? > > Alfred, could you explain the official situation reguarding VAC and > third > party mods?

Scuzzy, This list is for developers of modifications, not sever admins. Kindly direct your tech support to the creators of the third party addition. -Kuja mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sunday, July 30, 2006, 6:01:50 PM, you wrote: > Charles Solar: >> Read the discussion, you can setup your gameinfo file to get vac working > I had previously read through the discussion and followed the links you > provided which lead to > (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VAC_for_Mods) which ultimately led > me to, spelled out, replacing "SteamAppId 220" with "SteamAppId 320".

Charles Solar: > Read the discussion, you can setup your gameinfo file to get vac working I had previously read through the discussion and followed the links you provided which lead to (http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VAC_for_Mods) which ultimately led me to, spelled out, replacing "SteamAppId 220" with "SteamAppId 320". Is that the discussion you were referring too? Since I am hosting the game and not developing it Option #1 does not apply to me. Option #2 was my only possibility. Option #2 did not fix the problem. I still get "Connecting to Steam Servers successful. Vac secure mode disabled." This is why I was asking Alfred what the official position is and why VAC stopped working for mods. If you can help me Charles I'm more then willing to listen. Are you basically saying that the mod's development team must implement option #1? And if they do implement option #1 won't that mean they'll have to make a release every time Valve makes a steam update?
