Thank you very much for the info guys!

just a heads up: steamworks sdk v128 is no longer the latest, the latest steamworks sdk is v133b and it's redistributeable files no longer contain copies of the files you have uploaded. it just has the steam api. you may need to update the extension if it uses the steam client api from that version

EDIT: i saw that the api was not included in the download you provided, this might be a potential problem for the plugin in the future.

It would be pretty great to have a native to get the server's current SteamID. Parsing the output of 'status' is a bit... awful.

Ideally it would be possible to get the 64-bit SteamID and also to get the accountID for a persistent account.

Something like:

native void SteamWorks_GetServerSteamID(char[] buffer, int maxlen);
native int SteamWorks_GetServerAccountID();
native int SteamWorks_GetServerInstanceID();
native int SteamWorks_IsPersistentServerAccount();

there was some plugin that converts steamtools natives to use steamworks instead, but I can't find it despite any searching, anyone know where it is?

While an interesting idea, existing plugins wouldn't work in-place since they'd still require the SteamTools extension to be loaded.

If there's a good use case for that information in plugins, it sounds better suited toward SM itself, as that information is obtainable via the engine interface, rather than needing to use anything in the SteamWorks SDK.

You could simply remove the stuff from the include that loads the extension. or undefine REQUIRE_EXTENSIONS before including the steamtools include.

I m getting a problem with Steamworks , I was able to use https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=252712 this plugin before but now its unable to change game description.I showed the code to a sourcepawn coder he said its a problem with the extension not the plugin.

I've added https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=2331846 to help work around the underlying issue from the extension not being explicitly compiled against your games version of SteamWorks (they're separate in a depot now, iirc). This plugin will query the WebAPI as well to see if your game is out of date, which goes beyond hooking the interface function.

Wonder if it's worth adding this feature to the extension itself.
