A little side track off of servers, but TF2 linux clients are crashing on class change window and IDK where to report this issue about the client.

Ohh sourcebans, HLSW (which I don't think is even supported anymore), HLSTATS (which I can't even get the main Developer to respond to a few questions now as it is)... hell I have no idea what else at this point.

So in other words, they literally broke everything that uses Steam IDs

Your math is funny as 23856687x2=47713374

The best way I saw of putting it is this:

The old Steam format for TF2 is STEAM_0:X:Y
The new format is [U:1:Z] where Z is (Y*2)+X

So, anyone know if this is staying?

More importantly did this affect L4D2 ?

This change has apparently been on the way for a long time. These new IDs are referred to as Steam3, where the old version is Steam2.

Yes, it's probably staying.

You can't input the new ID format on Sourcebans.. lol wow

I suppose I'm at least happy that the great minds around here have already figured out how to convert the old to the new.

My question is - are we going to have to convert our old Sourcebans databases to the new format, or will the Sourcemod team implement some kind of interpreter that can handle both kinds of Steam ID's?
