Then why tell him he needs to update it if it's outdated and unneeded due to GetEngineVersion? I'm confused

He didn't, he was just commenting on how to detect these particular games.

Probably wouldn't hurt to toss a wiki page up on how to detect games that don't have their own EngineVersions.

For example, Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat:

PHP Code:


			
// Dedicated servers for Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat use Source SDK Base 2006
// So this should be the correct choice for EngineVersion.
if(g_EngineVersion == Engine_SourceSDK2006)
{
    char strGameName[10];
    GetGameFolderName(strGameName, sizeof(strGameName));
    
    // Game folder name is "insurgency"
    if(StrEqual(strGameName, "insurgency"))
    {
        // blah blah blah
    }
}

I've already submitted a thing on the SourceMod bug tracker to see if Insurgency: M.I.C. could get its own "Engine_" define.

And there's probably a few others. You can use the Dedicated Servers List article at the Valve Developer Wiki for a good starting point to help figure out what games are supported by SourceMod, and then figure out detection methods for each
