[Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

Hello.
Players began to use modified *.vpk files that make textures transparent.
How can fix this problem?
sv_pure 2 doesn't fix it.
Screens in attach files
Game CS:S Steam

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

in ...cfg/autoexec.cfg
add
sv_pure 2

Make sure you not have sv_pure command else where.
Restart server.

This make sure, sv_pure affect before map start.
Changing sv_pure mode require always map change and player should not be in server in that time or they get glitch.

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

sv_pure 2 in start params..
also in the screenshot you can see this value in console

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

Is it source dedicated server ?
And when you join into server, type in your game console: sv_pure

What you get ?

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

yes, source dedicated server

without RCON

Code:

The server is using sv_pure 2.  (Fully pure)

with RCON

Code:

] rcon sv_pure

--------------------------------------------------------

sv_pure: Only allow client to use certain files.



  -1 - Do not apply any rules or restrict which files the client may load.

   0 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_minimal.txt only.

   1 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_full.txt and then cfg/pure_server_whitelist.txt.

   2 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_full.txt.



   See cfg/pure_server_whitelist_example.txt for more details.



Current sv_pure value is 2.

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

Could you check public key of that "edited" VPK file.

- In your game. You go ...counter-strike source\bin\ directory, open CMD window.
- Type vpk, if you see "No command specified. Try 'vpk -?' for info." you are in right path.

- Then you try:

Code:

vpk dumpsig ../cstrike/cstrike_pak

You should get public_key and signature of cstrike_pak_dir.vpk files. Post those keys in here.

- Then try again, what is your custom vpk, I don't know:

Code:

vpk dumpsig ../cstrike/custom/abc.vpk

*edit
This is another guess,
you have edited txt file pure_server_full.txt, maybe that txt file format got wrong while saving.

        }

}

how to add signature verification? Maybe this should fix it?

Re: [Help] sv_pure and mod VPK files

I'm afraid that sv_pure skip checking VPK files which have compiled with correct public_key (and private_key), and server use this same public_key.

And because these are Valve base files, they need re-compile VPK files with new keys.
- But, how easily people can edit VPK file again and have correct public key, I don't know.

About signature... maybe game not look those at all :(
