    Format(oSteamID, sizeof(oSteamID),"STEAM_0:%d:%d", (OwnerSteamID & 1), (OwnerSteamID >> 1));
    
    decl String:cSteamID[32];
    Format(cSteamID, sizeof(cSteamID),"STEAM_0:%d:%d", (ClientSteamID & 1), (ClientSteamID >> 1));

While quite a few games uses STEAM_0:[...] (as you see in your own CS:S paste), L4D2 is actually using STEAM_1:[...].

Could you try replacing the STEAM_0's with STEAM_1 in the .sp, re-compile the plugin and let us know if that solves your issue on L4D2?

edit: so, shared account is kicked but i have a problem...

If the account is purchased from a dealer (STEAM_1:1, Left 4 Dead 2 Retail ), it is kicked....

Ah, all fixed now. Just download the attached .smx file.

Thanks

[s.m.a.c head]

any way to make this work for l4d2 I tried changing the steam id from 0 to 1 but the server crashed?
Also anyway to just log locally into a file rather than using a database?

Thanks so much for posting this, it will be super-helpful!

I am trying to set this up for Day of Defeat:Source, does anyone know the STEAM_[#] for this game?

Thanks!

It is always either _0, or _1 for that Steam ID format.

Join a server, then type "status" in console, and you'll see the right number for that specific game.

Some games has changed to format "[U:1xx]" though.


Seems like there's room for improvement to this plugin, to ensure automatic compatibility with most games on this plugin:

OP should switch to the new GetClientAuthId, or perhaps better, simply compare OwnerSteamID/ClientSteamID with GetSteamAccountID instead of converting between different Steam ID formats.

I am trying to mod the code, but the other issue I have is that the whole thing is set up for 32bit... and the Steam_ID is now 64bit.

I had a go at modifying the code, and now it will not compile. Finds all of the #includes except #steamworks :-(
