Re: [hlds_linux] hide rules from server queries
you can remove the NOTIFY flag from the convar, by recompiling the plugin or by doing something like this new Handle:cv = FindConVar(sm_hidden); new flags = GetConVarFlags(cv); flags = ~FCVAR_NOTIFY; SetConVarFlags(cv, flags); BTW, which are the server rules you think should be hidden? and why? for instance if you want to hide sv_steamgroup and sv_tags just to protect your steam group id, you are out of luck since this is replicated in the additional info field of the A2S_INFO reply On Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 2:00 AM, DreamsCN dream...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, There are information about how to query a server and get info,player and rules on this page http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Server_queries.

Re: [hlds_linux] hide rules from server queries
Thanks. Why some servers don't reply nextlevel(official l4d2 servers do reply an empty filed nextlevel)? I also notice os field is always linux, if it's a windows server, then there's no os field. Is it possible to actually hide sv_steamgroup even it's in A2S_INFO?

Re: [hlds_linux] hide rules from server queries
Yes, you can always set sv_steamgroup to ... The master servers and/or the players must read it in order to let players find their steam group servers. Valve should have used a public and private keys pair to identify steam groups, but probably they didn't think this was going to be abused or they were just lazy ;) On Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 4:15 PM, realdreams dream...@gmail.com wrote: Is it possible to actually hide sv_steamgroup even it's in A2S_INFO? ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] hide rules from server queries
But how? I think windows/linux servers handle queries differently. On Tue, Oct 12, 2010 at 8:03 PM, Nicholas Hastings nshasti...@gmail.com wrote: Yes.
