Re: [hlds_linux] SteamCMD "HTTP Remote Control"

[Netshroud]

It’s not plugin-related, it’s part of Steam. Steam (steamclient.dll/.dylib/.so) 
spins up an HTTPS server that listens on port 27037.

There’s nothing you can do with it right now, it’s only effective in Big 
Picture mode - something steamcmd does not have.

Re: [hlds_linux] Coming soon: changes to TF HTML MOTD support

[Netshroud]

I’d wager that it’s to stop people obnoxiously abusing the MOTD and Valve’s own 
customers, and may be re-evaluated at some future time.

Remember that users aren’t just your server’s clients, but they’re Valve’s 
customers. If you abuse the crap out of hosting, you make Valve look bad too.

So add it in :P

vpk.exe's self-help contains the commands you need.

Re: [hlds_linux] How to use VPK Tool ?

[Netshroud]

It doesn't appear to be documented, but from my testing it seems that any flags 
(including -k  and -K ) must be _before_ the commands ('a', 
'checksig', etc.)

e.g.
vpk -k pubkey checksig my.vpk <-- good
vpk checksig -k pubkey my.vpk <-- bad
vpk checksig my.vpk -k pubkey <-- bad

Re: [hlds_linux] Lots of core-dumps lately on TF2

Of course the crash is in the crash handler, it catches, handles, then 
rethrows. You'll need to examine the other threads to figure out which one 
actually crashed.

Unless it was legitimately a crash in Breakpad, but I haven't seen one of those 
yet.

Re: [hlds_linux] CS GO server update tool

For me:

login username

then entering my password just hangs.

login username password

results in account logon denied, but sends me a Steam Guard email. Not very 
informative.

login username password guardcode

lets me in, then afterwards

login username password

works fine.

Re: [hlds_linux] Trouble downloading files on a Mac?

[netshroud]

If you're referring to the client error "Couldn't CRC map_name_here", then 
that's a known bug since Source launched for the Mac and hasn't been fixed. 
I've tried and tried but haven't been able to come up with a reproducible case.

Last I checked, sometimes the Source client makes a request that 404s, but the 
same URI in Safari, curl, wget, etc. works fine. There have been hypotheses 
about broken decompression (Bzip2 IIRC) but nothing conclusive.

Re: [hlds_linux] Replay Crashing Me

While I'm not sure what the error is exactly based on what you pasted into the 
first email, make sure you have a MIME mapping set in IIS for the file 
extensions the replay system uses.

Re: [hlds_linux] Friends on server showing internal ip when trying tojoin..

[netshroud]

Last I checked Steam Friends will show the IP of the server as you connect to 
it, not as the server advertises it.

If you're behind the same NAT as the server, then the local IP will be shown. 
If you connect to the server from the public IP, the public IP will be shown.

Does that help at all?

Re: [hlds_linux] Request: unlock maxplayers HL2DM from 16 to 32

Just looking through the Alien Swarm base (I don't have the 2007 code
immediately accessible), it looks like 32 is hardcoded into a bunch of
places, but then there's this:

// This is the max # of players the engine can handle
// Note, must be power of 2
#define ABSOLUTE_PLAYER_LIMIT 64
#define ABSOLUTE_PLAYER_LIMIT_DW ( (ABSOLUTE_PLAYER_LIMIT/32) + 1 )
