Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds_announce] [hlds] Important changes to TF2 coming soon
This change is not related to SteamCMD in any way. It's when the gameserver process logs in to Steam. Does it sign on anonymously, or does it offer the key and sign into the account? The game needs to expose a method for you to specify which credentials to use. And yes, I suspect we will probably add a feature for GoldSrc engine games to signin to accounts at some point. -Original Message- From: Weasels Lair [mailto:wea...@weaselslair.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 05, 2014 5:03 PM To: Half-Life dedicated Linux server mailing list; Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list; Fletcher Dunn Subject: [hlds_announce] [hlds_linux] [hlds] Important changes to TF2 coming soon Again thanks for this feature.

Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds_announce] [hlds] Important changes to TF2 coming soon
Ok, thanks. I was confused about what logon were were talking about there. It's all very clear to me now - no valid sv_setsteamaccount value is effectively anonymous.

We desperately needed a feature like this too many times in the past. I can't express how glad I am for the whole server hosting community that this is finally coming. Thanks a lot! The account creation currently returns 401 Unauthorized for me, is it not live yet or am I doing something wrong?

To quote Flether's earlier post: Fletcher Dunn Wed, 05 Feb 2014 16:02:04 -0800 TF quickplay changes: next TF update. Ability to create gameserver accounts via WebAPI: Available now. Ability to login TF server to your account: next TF update. Steam client beta capable of storing favorites keyed by account and migrating favorites: within a week or so. All steam clients are capable of storing favorites keyed by account: No ETA. (Probably a few weeks at most.) We are expecting the next TF update to be tomorrow. Hopefully everybody who has been a TF server operator for any length of time knows that this is a hope, not a promise.

Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds_announce] [hlds] Important changes to TF2 coming soon
Worked perfectly for me.
Did it from a command-prompt in Linux using curl:
curl -d appid=440key=YOURSTEAMWEBAPIKEYHERE
https://api.steampowered.com/IGameServersService/CreateAccount/v0001/
It returned output like:
{
response: {
steamid: YOURNUMERICSTEAMIDHERE,
login_token: YOURLOGONTOKENHERE

I didn't confuse GET for POST but made a different mistake. My bad :)
