Re: [hlds] [hlds_linux] SteamPipe Replay autoexec.cfg player count bug

Re: [hlds] [hlds_linux] SteamPipe Replay autoexec.cfg player count bug
Got another bug, with steampipe replay. All was working great on classic server. - Serveur is uploading on the ftp mirror - I can download the files thru the browser - TF2 failed to download the file. Maybe an issue with the steampipe client. 2013/4/30 byteframe bytefr...@gmail.com IIRC The only purpose of the -replay command line switch is to adjust the player count.

Re: [hlds] Can We Get a Status of TF2 Steampipe Release Today?
It was was small, and did not change the version number. My client now reads: ] version Protocol version 24 Exe version 1734532 (tf) Exe build: 15:20:28 Apr 29 2013 (5287) (440) And the steampipe server I just updated now reads: 13:56:19 Protocol version 24 Exe version 1734532 (tf) Exe build: 15:22:29 Apr 29 2013 (5287) (440) Good old HldsUpdateTool just downloaded one file for my non-steampipe servers: 0:26 100.00% downloading /orangebox\bin\engine.dll (Man, I am going to miss seeing which files changed in updates.) But the srcds.exe didn't change, and those servers still report: 14:05:43 Protocol version 24 Exe version 1734532 (tf) Exe build: 17:30:19 Apr 22 2013 (5280) (440) So... a tiny change got pushed out.

Re: [hlds] [hlds_announce] TF2 SteamPipe beta update released. Forcing all clients to convert soon.
Two quick clarifications: This update to the Steampipe beta is optional for servers. Compared to the previous Steampipe beta build, it primarily contains client-side fixes. So it is not necessary to update. The HLDS server should continue to be able to successfully host clients, even after the flip. So if you need a bit more breathing room, you have it. HOWEVER: I would definitely not delay switching to SteamPipe. At this point the HLDS version of the server is no longer supported. We also cannot promise that we might need to make a mandatory update, perhaps as soon as tomorrow, which would make the HLDSUpdateTool server obsolete. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds

Yes, it's possible. We're going through and getting rid of any places where we expect users to edit a shipping file. I'll add the replay config files to the list of files to fix.

A note about SteamPing... I signed up for their service to get email notifications a month or two back, just to check it out. I never got any notifications, so I forgot about it for a few weeks.

[hlds] Newly installed srcds installations fail on first startup
I think this is already a known issue, but as a reminder...
I am seeing my newly installed SteamPipe TF2 servers fail on first
startup. Subsequent startups operate normally.
I suspect this is because steam_appid.txt is not created until after the
first startup.
I had also noticed this after previous SteamPipe conversions of css,
hl2dm, etc, but it appears to still not be fixed.

OK. I just gotta say, kudos to Fletcher and the whole gang there working on the changeover. I got my server switched over and clients are onboard, not one single problem. Also kudos to the SM team. Plugins all working flawlessly.

Re: [hlds] [hlds_announce] TF2 SteamPipe beta update released. Forcing all clients to convert soon.
Curious, Is there any reason for us to keep the Team Fortress 2 Beta?

Forcing all clients to convert soon. Two quick clarifications: This update to the Steampipe beta is optional for servers. Compared to the previous Steampipe beta build, it primarily contains client-side fixes. So it is not necessary to update. The HLDS server should continue to be able to successfully host clients, even after the flip. So if you need a bit more breathing room, you have it. HOWEVER: I would definitely not delay switching to SteamPipe. At this point the HLDS version of the server is no longer supported. We also cannot promise that we might need to make a mandatory update, perhaps as soon as tomorrow, which would make the HLDSUpdateTool server obsolete. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds

New builds are now available for the client and dedicated server for CS:S, DoD:S, and HL2:DM. These builds have the same PatchVersion and are network compatible with the current build. (It’s an “optional update” for servers.) To obtain these builds, you need to opt into the prerelease beta. To opt into the prerelease beta on the client, right click on the game in the game list and select Properties, select the “Betas” tab, and select the “prerelease” beta. (This is a public beta and does not require a password.) To select which branch to sync the dedicated server to using steamcmd, you need to pass “-beta prerelease” to the app_update command. For example, if you are using a SteamCmd script file, you might have something like this: login anonymous force_install_dir cstrike app_update 232330 -beta prerelease quit (I am told that it is possible to pass the -beta switch on the steamcmd command line, through some magic combination of quoting, so you can avoid having to create a script file. Hopefully some kind soul will figure out how to do that and share it.) Switching between two steampipe branches is really fast and easy, so if there’s a problem, you can switch back quickly. (Opting out of the “steampipe beta” was really painful because it was switching between two entirely different content distribution systems --- that will never apply again.) If no big problems are detected, we’ll make these builds the official build on Monday. Our current plan is to always keep the prerelease branch active, even if it is the same build as the main branch. This way you can stay opted in. In other words, “prerelease” actually means “the latest available build”. We’re not sure if every update we release needs to go out as a prerelease first. Here are the change notes for the builds we are releasing today: Source engine games: * mapcycle and motd files now reside in the cfg folder by default, or in the root as a fallback. * Default mapcycle and motd files are now shipped as cfg/xxx_default.txt, and will be used if the filename convar is at the default value and no custom file is found in the cfg folder or the root. * mapcycle file can contain blank lines and //-style comments * mapcycle file loaded from the custom folder. * Greatly reduced memory usage on the client and server * Added some hardcoded rules to the “end” of sv_pure rule list. * Fixed some filesystem calls not properly obeying pure server rules. * Fixed model bounds and simple materials consistency checking rules.

Re: [hlds] [hlds_announce] TF2 SteamPipe beta update released. Forcing all clients to convert soon.
No. -- Nicholas Hastings AlliedMods.net Robert Whelan Wednesday, May 01, 2013 12:02 AM Curious, Is there any reason for us to keep the Team Fortress 2 Beta?From: Fletcher Dunn fletch...@valvesoftware.com To: "Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list (hlds@list.valvesoftware.com)" hlds@list.valvesoftware.com; "Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list (hlds_li...@list.valvesoftware.com)" hlds_li...@list.valvesoftware.com Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2013 2:22 PM Subject: Re: [hlds] [hlds_announce] TF2 SteamPipe beta update released. Forcing all clients to convert soon. Two quick clarifications: This update to the Steampipe beta is optional for servers. Compared to the previous Steampipe beta build, it primarily contains client-side fixes. So it is not necessary to update. The HLDS server should continue to be able to successfully host clients, even after the flip. So if you need a bit more breathing room, you have it. HOWEVER: I would definitely not delay switching to SteamPipe. At this point the HLDS version of the server is no longer supported. We also cannot promise that we might need to make a mandatory update, perhaps as soon as tomorrow, which would make the HLDSUpdateTool server obsolete. ___To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit:https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit:https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds Fletcher Dunn Tuesday, April 30, 2013 3:22 PM Two quick clarifications: This update to the Steampipe beta is optional for servers.

Here are the change notes (since the last SteamPipe beta): Team Fortress 2: * Fixed network incompatibility causing custom names and descriptions to not display on client Source engine: * Fix sprays trying to load from the wrong directory * Restored VPK file cache, with tuned size to reduce memory usage and improve client boot and map load times This server is compatible with all currently running clients. (SteamPipe and non-SteamPipe.) We expect to flip the switch to force all clients to convert to SteamPipe in a few hours. (Approx 2:00 PM Seattle time.) At this time, the Steampipe beta server which has just been released will become the official server. There will not be another update. If you were waiting for the right time to start flipping your servers to SteamPipe, now is it.

Re: [hlds] Pre-release updates available for CS:S, DoD:S, and HL2:DM
The betas tab only shows existing public beta branches that aren't at the same revision as the public/default branch. Right now the prerelease branch of those matches the actual release, so it has no beta branches to show, and thus, no tab. -- Nicholas Hastings AlliedMods.net Robert Whelan Wednesday, May 01, 2013 12:08 AM I opt'd into these prerelease betas the other day on my client.
