I think only TF2 supports the randommap command. Valve added it when they started running TF2 QuickPlay servers. For a long time, randommap only worked in autoexec.cfg, until someone (read: me) complained about it not working on the command line.

tbh I have no idea what nemrun is meant to do. It's able to only do update checks / validate when the server actually needs to? ;o

Except I looked at it at a time where I had a headache.

I also have no clue how my startup settings check for updates every map change, yet this plugin only does occasionally, even though it relies on my startup settings. wat

I've been using this on 4 servers but 2 of them are shared servers while the other 2 are on a vds. The two on the vds detect the update basically as soon as it is released and even before people can download it client side.

Rather than side-tracking this further, I've replied to this in the Nemrun thread.

For some reason, this plugin has randomly stopped working on TF2.

Running into the same issue. I seem to be already running the snapshot recommended by Asherkin so I'm unsure as to the solution.

Use this instead.

And you don't need SteamTools, you need SteamWorks.

This should also have the TF2 tag since SteamTools only supports TF2.

Can confirm with the update 20 minutes ago that this does still work, at least on two of my three servers. For some reason one of them isn't getting the update notice, but I am sure that is unrelated to this plugin.

Did you update SteamTools?
