i have read this in your post before and tried it. but adding this, will result in a segmentation fault when booting the server. it trys rebooting the server several times but nothing happens

I installed the new Pipe for Dods,

Got mm 1.10 and Sm 1.5 3822, loaded with the ini file... ( with the beta dods-steampipe-beta.txt )
So far so good only i got server restarts like 10 times a day.

Got no strange errors, do i need a newer version of SM. or do other Dods hosters have this problem maybe also.

I think I have identified the culprit: I took care of sdktools but forgot to update sdkhooks.

You will also need the updated sdkhooks file.

Uploaded Ravu al Hemio,

Will see what happens now. Gracias so far mate.

Well I am going through this with my Hosting Company now for my DOD:S Server. Looks like we are going to have to reinstall DOD:S and then add everything back again with all the updated snapshots of course.

Damn Steam. I hate what they do because they always wreck things. Next headache coming from them will be TF2 of course.

I just wonder why they cannot just let things be when everything is working fine?

Anyone have fixed gamedata for CSS:DM? I didn't see any lists with needed offsets...

I've added experimental CSSDM gamedata to my repository. I'm not guaranteeing it will work, though. Make sure to back up the original gamedata file.

You've never tried launching the TF2 Linux client, have you? The loading times, especially the startup one, are astronomical, and the SteamPipe conversions finally improve this. Also, Valve have effectively been maintaining two versions of the Steam protocol for the last not-sure-how-many years: the one that their games used since Half-Life 2 (if not earlier) up to Left 4 Dead, and the one that everyone else used (more or less). This update has been a long time coming, and while the switchover does require additional effort, I assume we won't see any more such large updates all too soon, and in general, I'm glad that Valve still keeps ten-year-old products afloat.

Also, let's face it: hosting a dedicated server for a Valve game has always been like shooting at a moving target. Any Allied Modders team member can confirm that...

Well it looks like the 23rd is the big day for TF2, figured it be on a Tuesday and my busy day of work for the week.

At least it won't be a Friday like a lot of other big updates they've done.

Day of Defeat: Source: already happened
Half-life 2: Deathmatch: Wednesday, April 3
Counter-Strike: Source: Tuesday, April 16
Team Fortress 2: Tuesday, April 23

Our goal is to repeat the process that we used with the Day of Defeat: Source switchover last week. The "beta" dedicated server (The SteamPipe version of the dedicated server) is actually the exact same server installation that will host the clients after the switchover. We will try to avoid releasing a dedicated server update near the time of the client switchover, so that SteamPipe dedicated servers can be up and ready, and as clients switchover to SteamPipe, those dedicated servers will be ready to host them.

One note concerning the TF2 beta. As you probably know, it's currently a separate app. (The TF2 beta client is App ID 520 and the TF2 beta dedicated server is AppID 229830.) About a week before the TF2 switchover, we'll initiate a beta process identical to the one used for the other games. We'll release the Steampipe version of the official dedicated server (App ID 232250) and an opt-in client beta available from the "betas" tab for the regular "Team Fortress 2" application (App ID 440). This beta client will have all the same content as the regular game, will talk to the same item server as the regular client, and will have all the same items in your backpack. It will be running App ID 440, not 520. The only difference is that it will be using the new file system with VPK files, it will have a different PatchVersion in the steam.inf file, and will only be able to connect to SteamPipe servers. To avoid confusion between the two different types of TF2 betas, at that time we will deactivate the beta client app 520 and dedicated server app 229830. We'll have further details on this process when we release the official dedicated server.
