Family Share Whitelist
 

THIS IS UPDATED AND NO LONGER REQUIRES AN API KEY!

Dependencies:

• SteamWorks
• Updater

Enables server owners to block family shared accounts and copies of the games, while at the same time enabling other family shared copies to play. Thus, a family share whitelist.

Updated to use SteamWorks on 4/29/2022 since valve removed or (seemingly broke?) IsPlayingSharedGame from the API

Commands:

• sm_reloadlist - Reloads the whitelist while plugin is running.
• sm_addtolist - Add a player to the white/blacklist.
• sm_removefromlist - Remove a player from the white/blacklist.
• sm_displaylist - Displays all Steam IDs currently in the list
  

cfg/sourcemod/plugin.familyshare_manager.cfg

whitelist format: steamid then new line. one steam id per line.


A question by ShogoMoe I answered:
If you wanted this to be a blacklist instead, allowing all family shared accounts besides the ones on the list, you could simply add one character to the code:

Alternatively, I could attach one modified for the blacklisting instead of the whitelisting.

Sidezz coming in clutch, Installed obviously

Re: Family Share Whitelist
 

In CS: GO you can't connact to any server when using family sharing, so this plugin is useless for this game.
Is it still not patched in other games?

Re: Family Share Whitelist
 

Yeah I reckon that CS:GO administrators wouldn't be using this

Re: Family Share Whitelist
 

Updater.

Re: Family Share Whitelist
 

1.5.5 released on 4/29/2022 since valve either removed or broke IsPlayingSharedGame from the API

patch notes:
it uses steamworks
it dont need an api key
it dont need an appid
it is just better and should've been done this way to begin with
updater works too

Re: Family Share Whitelist
 

Does this work on DOD:S and is it possible to allow sharing, but log when someone is using it and include the original account's steam id?
