Well, I can do that fine. Because I can't get the year from the log
name, I am just working from the Date Created field instead (im doing
this on a Windows box). This means that I have to assume the date the
file was created, was when srcds created it ;)
If valve would simply make the log naming convention something simple
like:
srcds
Or:
Srcds
Either one would be good, and would allow so much more control over the
archiving process. I'm sure other larger game server providers are
having the same gripe? If I had to manage hundreds of servers with the
current log format on each, I would be pretty pissed.
Regards,
Adam
