Re: [hlds_linux] Left 4 Dead 2 Servers updated to SteamPipe

Is there a timeframe for Left 4 Dead 1 to be moved over to
SteamCMD/SteamPipe as well?

Thanks,

 Hello!

 We have converted Left 4 Dead 2 to be delivered through SteamPipe.

 Next Monday (July 1) servers downloaded with the HLDSUpdateTool will no
 longer be compatible. Only the server obtained using SteamCMD will work.
 The server is currently available for download; we encourage all server
 operators to download and install the server now if you haven't already.
 The server is interoperable with the current public Left 4 Dead 2 client.

 The AppID for the SteamPipe version of the server is 222860.

 Instructions for using SteamCMD to update your servers are available here:

 The update is going live any second now.

 To host an MvM server:
 * Make sure maxplayers is 32!
 * No PvP maps in the MvM mission cycle file.  (More details on this file
 will follow.)
 * Set tf_mm_servermode 2 (or 0)
 *  Boot the server on one of the MvM maps:
 mvm_decoy
 mvm_mannworks
 mvm_coaltown

 * Use the default mission cycle file (attached) or edit as you prefer

 * Convars:
 Vote issues specific to MvM:
 sv_vote_issue_changelevel_**allowed_mvm
 sv_vote_issue_kick_allowed_mvm

 We also suggest sv_minrate 3

 To host a PvP server:
 *   No MvM maps in the mapcycle file.
 *   Set tf_mm_servermode 1 (or 0)
 *   Boot the server on a PvP map in your map cycle.


 A few last qestions:


 We will host some Boot Camp (non Mann UP!) servers, but we are
 expecting that the demand for servers of both kinds will be extremely high,
 so we are moving most of our servers to Mann UP.

 In summary: almost all of the boot camp players --- which is likely to
 be a majority of players today --- will be hosted on community servers.

 I found that with tf_mvm_missioncyclefile you can set which .res file to
 use when cycling maps, but how do we set which category to choose when
 there are multiple categories inside the file?

 Thanks,

  * No PvP maps in the MvM mission cycle file.  (More details on
this file will follow.)

Will we be able to set where this file is? similar to mapcyclefile?

On 15 August 2012 17:54, Fletcher Dunn fletch...@valvesoftware.com wrote:

 MOAR IMPORTANT FACTS!

 The MvM in-game voting system restricts the options given to players to
 change the map or mission.  Similarly, PvP voting restricts the options to
 what's in your mapcycle file.

 So...

 To host a PvP server:

 * No MvM maps in the mapcycle file.

 * Set tf_mm_servermode 1 (or 0)

 * Boot the server on a PvP map in your map cycle.

 To host an MvM server:

 * Make sure maxplayers is 32!

 * No PvP maps in the MvM mission cycle file.  (More details on
 this file will follow.)

 * Set tf_mm_servermode 2 (or 0)

 * Boot the server on a MvM map in your map cycle.

 If you do the above, the server will essentially be locked in either one
 mode or the other, and players will not be able to switch.  (Barring any
 use of rcon, etc.)

 A few quick questions, if I may.

 1) Will it be possible to force a server to run in only MvM mode, like how
 Arena mode currently works? If so, how is this done?

 2) If a server has the capability, will spectators be able to join and
 watch MvM matches without SourceTV? If so, will they be able to cycle in
 and out after each match, like Arena mode?

 I apologize if these have already been answered.

   We will not have Steam group functionality tomorrow.
  
   You actually have to set maxplayers to 32 to host MvM (to make
   room for all the bots).  That's why the mode is expensive
   CPU-wise, to not only simulate all those players but run their
   AI logic as well.  We'll have more details on the
   recommended settings tomorrow.
  
   Regarding exactly what happens if a 24-player server switches to
   MvM:  I actually don't think we have worked that out yet.
  
   I'm pretty sure on day one there will be lots of people trying
   out all sorts of things.  Our approach to experimentation
   in MvM will be the same as in PvP: we encourage it, provided
   that players are opting in to any major deviations from the
   vanilla experience.  Our servers will all be configured
   vanilla, and the matchmaking will enforce the 6 player limit,
   and the server browser will be the primary means for players to
   find those sorts of customizations.  What will the most
   interesting customizations be?  What will the standard tags
   be used that we request server operators to set in order to help
   players find the modifications they want or avoid the ones they
   don't like?  We can't know that yet.  That's something
   we expect you guys and your players to figure out.
  
   I will hazard a guess that raising the player count well
  above 6
   would be detrimental the experience.  There ratio of humans
   to bots would be off and the human defending team would not have
   enough challenge.  (As an extreme example: imagine a 32-
   player server where everybody is defending an there are no
   bots.)  Exactly how far it can be raised above 6 without
   totally breaking the game is speculation of course.  I
   think a smart server operator will start out with the server
   configured relatively vanilla, and then watch how the game
   unfolds and listen to their players, and try to make smart
   decisions about which areas to experiment, rather than assuming
   the same sorts of adjustments your community prefers in PvP will
   automatically apply to this mode.  A fun co-op mode with
   more than six players is likely to require entirely new
   missions.  (The mission decides the pattern of enemy robots
   that come at you.)  We have purposefully made it easy for
   players to create their own missions.
 (It's a lot easier than creating a whole new map!)
   But if you play with more than six players, with the missions
   we've made, I think the balance will be way off.

Once I removed the existing item_games.txt so that I could simulate an

[hlds_linux] Latest TF2 update breaks on FreeBSD

2012-02-24 Thread Dan Offord
Hi There,

Since yesterday's update to Team Fortress 2, I'm now seeing all
servers on FreeBSD 8.2

Having spent a while googling for this error, it appears to have
happened before, but no one has ever fixed it or it's been 'fixed'
when the next TF2 update has hit

The error message I'm currently seeing is:

You could set +servercfgfile on your command line.
This way, you would only need to use 1 install of tf2 and multiple servers.

 Anyone have any experience on this, maybe even a small shellscript to do

I don't think we get the demo files at this point. They would be out 
already. Maybe we get them for the public demo release or perhaps just 
for the final game.  This is gotta be some testing thing to see how good 
their own servers will run. I predict lack of servers once again if this 
keeps up. Maybe they do what COD6 team did, no ded servers - at all ;)

 (Tuesday, the 27th).  Is there going to be a demo server released with 
 this (as there was with the first l4d)?

 Also, is there a place where we can view a changelog for server-side 
 configs or are we basically going to be able to use pretty much the same 
 configs for l4d2?

 We are getting close to the release at this point and I would like to do 
 some prep so I can have servers up and running for the release and 
 currently, I've not really seen anything on the mailing list about it. 
 Is there a website with details I'm not aware of?

Subject: [hlds_linux] Banned players are unbanned on server restart

Hi

Im not sure if this problem has been posted before (I could not find it).

I have noticed that Counter-Strike Source servers only store its banned  
players in memory.
So when you restart the server all players are unbanned.


Problem:

I ban a player via IP using the following in the terminal
(You can also ban a player by steamID using banid)

addip 0 123.123.123.132

I can now see the banned ip by using listip.
Now I restart the server (using quit and starting srcds again).

The ip 123.123.123.132 is no longer banned.
I thought the banned plaers would be saved in a file something?


Does anyone else have this problem and a possible fix?

Re: [hlds_linux] l4d sv_downloadurl

2009-06-26 Thread Dan Offord
The first major issue with this is the fact, that the internet is 
changing  sites delete / remove links.

What is going to happen once the site with the link on goes down / 
becomes a site just full of adverts... or the file gets deleted?

A better system, would have been to use sv_downloadurl from the server 
first to download the vpk via a redirect site, and if that fails fall 
back to the download url within the vpk file.

Jonah Hirsch wrote:
 It will not work. Here's how the VPK system works.

 When a mapmaker packages their VPK file, they have to make a missions.txt
 file. This contains information such as campaign name, version, author,
 which maps are for which type of game, and the images.

 It also includes a download url. (Remember this!)

 To start an add-on game, one person needs the addon. When anyone else tries
 to join their lobby, they are presented with a message saying they need to
 download the addon, and is presented with the download url that the mapmaker
 provided.

 It's very similar to how it used to work. The only advantage is starting the
 add-on campaign from the lobby, instead of changing the map once you connect
 to the server.

 Instead of making a lobby and giving people a link, l4d gives people the
 link for you.

 It'd be very nice if the server could push out the file, or you could use
 sv_downloadurl, but if it did people wouldn't be there for the beginning of
 a map.

Scenario 2 will never happen.

You can't join the game, if you don't have the map, the join button is 
just greyed out.
Ideally, you would still have an option to download it from the servers 
redirect.

ics wrote:
 I know i cannot download from the server while not connected into one. 
 Let me twist the wire:

 Scenario 1:
 1. Lobby leader has custom campaign installed.
 2. Other players join lobby which do not have the campaign
 3. Since the campaign has download URL, they get to download the 
 campaign _before_ lobby leader starts the game OR he can start the game 
 and others join whilst they download it from the URL.
 4. No one downloads from the lobby creator, only from the URL specified 
 in campaign VPK files.

 Scenario 2:
 1. Player direct connects to a server which as campaign on
 2. Player doesnt have the campaign but he gets a dl prompt to download 
 it from the campaign URL
 3. Player downloads the map from the associated URL specified in the 
 campaign files

 Got it?

Re: [hlds_linux] [L4D] Fixing the taglstring issue?

2009-04-23 Thread Dan Offord
Are you running SourceMod - or do you have something else added to the tags?

One of our public search key servers doesn't really get close to the 63char
limit:

 Tags:
 Public: empty,coop,versus,survival
 Private: empty,grp00i,key:hashmpukl4d1013,coop,versus,survival


We did however swap over to a 1.3.0 snapshot of SourceMod which has
sourcemod tag removed.

--

@Daniel:
If you don't include sv_gametypes it will still default to
coop,versus,survival so it makes no real difference

2009/4/24 Daniel Worley worle...@gmail.com

 Do you need the sv_gametypes?  I don't use it and I'm able to play whatever
 on my server.

  Recently with the addition of the new gamemode, the tagstring gets too
  long because of the added gamemode tag.
  My server has sv_steamgroup, sv_search_key and all gamemodes set
  (sv_gametypes coop,versus,survival).
  Now when I start my server it complains my tagstring is too long. The
  only fixes I see are:
  1. Omit a game mode
  2. Not using the convenient  sv_search_key but using the
  ms_force_dedicated cvar (Takes ages to connect, have to use IP)
  3. Not linking the server to the steam group
 
  I really don't want to do anything of this if there's a way to fix it.
  Does anyone have any alternatives?

 Sorry to bring up yet another pain -- but I have been trying to get the
 sv_search_key to work - and have never been successful so maybe someone
 could point out what I am doing wrong.

 I start L4D via the following command line:

 srcds_run -console -game left4dead +map l4d_vs_hospital01_apartment +ip
 x.x.x.x +sv_search_key ninjaturtles

 I am using the following config file (in the cfg folder - server.cfg):

 rcon_password 
 hostname EGS Left4Dead Server

 //allow non-lobby people to join
 sv_allow_lobby_connect_only 0

 //Let people know they can join ANY time!
 sv_tags Server Browser Join Enabled

 //omg hard!
 z_difficulty hard

 sv_steamgroup x
 sv_steamgroup_exclusive 1

 sv_search_key ninjaturtles

 So then when I make a lobby I issue sv_search_key ninjaturtles in the
 console, and I attempt to start the game, and I never can find a server :(

 Any help would be appreciated - this lobby system has given me far too many
 headaches!

Mattie wrote:
 As people mentioned, steam won't work because of remote rcon (like HLSW, web
 consoles, etc). An IP whitelist could be better, but it's more complicated
 to implement and people use HLSW from multiple locations.

 Still, what I'm looking for is the simplest, least impactful change to
 improve security. Rcon behavior is surely over a decade old by now and
 people use it in different ways-- the idea is to minimally impact the
 day-to-day for admins while preventing their servers from being taken over
 when they're not around because of some Source or plugin exploit.

 Is this sacrifice too big to prevent newbie and experienced admins some of
 the current grief they have from getting banned from their own servers, etc?
 That's really the question I'm asking here.

 Thanks for all the great feedback so far, guys!

either map change and/or exec server.cfg and/or restarting the server. 
This way rather than starting to limit it to ips/steam ids and having to 
create mass whitelists, its in one file  only people with access can 
set it.

What is really needed then is a project liked SteamBans but, only bans the

If they do indeed have multiple ip's then a mass ban via servers would make
cafe owners think twice about it all.

  } The main problem here is, VAC's delayed banning system has no effect
  } whatsoever on NetCafe Accounts, as it is a simple case for a NetCafe
 users
  } to log out of the STEAM account they are using at the NetCafe and then
 log
  } back in when they have been banned from a server by an admins and
 renter
  } the
  } server with a new STEAM_ID, and in any case, who cares about being VAC
  } banned if you effectively have unlimited access to STEAM_ID's that
 aren't
  } yours any how?
  }
  } Here is the thing though, most Netcafes are connected to the Internet
 via
  } Static IP's.
  }
  } It is a rather trivial task to go through the logs with a program like
  } HLStatsX and run a query that generates a list of STEAM_ID's on a per
 IP
  } basis.
  }
  } Then you check to see which IP's have lots of STEAM_ID's attached to
 them,
  } and then you add those IP addresses to your banned_ip.cfg file and run
 it
  } at
  } server start, instant mass reduction of cheats you will see on your
  } server.
  }
  } If you want to be sure, just do a traceroute to the IP in question
 just to

 you
  } will find that these are not going to have Netcafe accounts associated
  } with
  } them anyhow.
  }
  } But you can be almost certain that if you see more than 20 STEAM_ID's
  } originating from the 1 IP address, you have found a NetCafe that is
 using
  } your servers.
  }
  } Now the problem for Valve, is if lots of Game Server Providers start
 IP
  } banning NetCafes from their servers, it instantly devalues Valves
 NetCafe
  } program, since the NetCafe users will find it increasingly difficult
 to
  } find
  } servers to play on the Internet. In fact it is my understanding that
 if
  } you
  } IP ban, then your servers will no longer even come up on that IP's
 server
  } browser, they will either not show up at all, or they show up as not
  } responding, in either case the result is the same.
  }
  } I do not have a simple answer to this, but whilst delayed banning
 exists,
  } there is no other way to stop cheats on servers who have effectively
  } unlimited access to STEAM Accounts, other than to IP ban them.

  Wow, that explains something I see.  When someone says please ban
 user,
  the user just says ban me lol.  Or something similar.  I was assuming
 they
  must have a keygen and did not care because they could generate a new
 key
  quickly.  I would love to see someone post a list of IPs to ban.  I
 would
  ban them at the firewall.
 
  I really do wish Valve would ban cheaters instantly.  The aim bots are
  perfect and really up the game for everyone else.
 
  I guess when I see someone cheating I should ban the user and IP
 address.
  But as you say, the NetCafe would become useless over time.

Why are you doing this as root?

Surely you should be doing this as a normal user?

This issue still isn't fixed.  I was still able to crash a server using the
same exploit.
