Steam Issues / Counter-Strike Steamworks Beta...
Last post by Krillin - June 05, 2009, 07:15:41 PMFor those of you interested in Counter-Strike Steamworks Beta. Here is what you do.
Launch steam and just log in, you will need it to install this new mod.
Once steam is running, open your web browser and enter in the address bar:
steam://install/150
Or or click the following URL
Counter-Strike Steamworks Beta
Info we found most interesting was: "The focus of this beta is on the dedicated server component, in particular the Linux piece." Get more information about this engine, the click here.
Our server will be up and down as we test this nicely built engine server.
Testing on the client side of this product we have discovered when the map changes the client hangs up and freezes. So server will not be running as it appears to run on the server side of this aspect.
Sorry gang!

Last post by Krillin - May 09, 2009, 10:18:33 PMThe set time frame has been narrowed down to a 6 hour window.
On May 21st, 2009 between 5:59PM - 11:59PM on this day we will be resetting our SH MOD servers.
Level 20's don't even think about taking up a slot. All will be kicked out above the fore mentioned level in previous post. (Level >11) Level 10 and below will be able to keep their EXP at time of reset in you are in the server at the time we 'pop the plug'.
Goodluck,
Krillin

Question
How should I set my firewall to work with Steam?
Error Messages
* Crash: Steam.exe (main exception): Unable to load library Steam.dll
* Crash: SteamProcessCall(Login) failed with error 200: Connection Reset, WinSock error 10054 Connection Reset by Peer
* Crash: SteamStartEngine(0x12e88c) failed with error 201: Cannot perform this operation while offline
* Error: Steam Servers Busy or Servers are Busy
* Error: Steam is temporarily unavailable
* Error: Secure Connection Failed
* Error: Could not connect to Steam Network
* Error: Could not connect to Master Game Server to Retrieve Server List
Answer
Important:
If you are installing Steam for the first time or if there has been a recent Steam update, a firewall may be preventing Steam from connecting to the Steam Network.
Please remember to update your firewall permission settings for Steam with every Steam update and for Steam games every time a game update is released. Steam updates and game updates are announced on the Steam News page.
Troubleshooting Steps
1.
Before trying anything else, try bypassing your router by connecting your computer directly to your modem.
If the issue disappears after bypassing your router, please refer to the Using a Router with Steam topic for instructions on configuring your router.
Note: running your router in DMZ mode is not supported by Steam and may result in connection issues.
2.
To ensure reliability, make sure you are using a wired connection to the internet. Close the Steam client application and remove all instances of the following executables from your firewall's permissions list:
steaminstall.exe
steam.exe
hl.exe
hl2.exe
steamTmp.exe
Permissions for these executables will need to be re-learned by your firewall.
3.
Open Steam to allow your firewall to re-learn permissions for the Steam executables. If your firewall does not prompt you to set new permissions, the security settings may be too strict - you will need to change these settings so you will be prompted to set permissions.
Give the Steam executables permission for all TCP and UDP ports when prompted.
4.
Restart your computer and load Steam.
5.
If the issue persists, please see the Troubleshooting Network Connectivity topic for further troubleshooting recommendations
Firewall Provider Resources
If you are using a firewall program listed above and have questions about setting permissions, please take the opportunity to open the program and use its Help feature or review the support site for the software:
* Microsoft provides support for the Windows XP firewall (included with Windows XP Service Pack 2, enabled by default)
* Norton provides support for Norton Personal Firewall
* McAfee provides support for McAfee Personal Firewall and the McAfee Internet Security Suite
* Zone Labs provides support for ZoneAlarm
* nVidia - nVidia's Network Access Manager is bundled with some nVidia products. Unfortunately, this product is not compatible with Steam - please see the Nothing appears on the Storefront screen in Steam topic for more information.
If allowing permissions does not seem to affect the connection to Steam, please try disabling your firewall completely before launching Steam to test this issue.
For Norton NIS2009 users, this is what you do in a nut shell.
1. Open your NIS Pannel (the nut shell)
2. Click 'Settings' option in the Computer Frame
3. Select Internet Settings
4. Scroll Down to Smart Firewall
5. Click Program Control 'Configure'
6. Select and 'Remove' any rules for
steaminstall.exe
steam.exe
hl.exe
hl2.exe
steamTmp.exe
7. Click 'Apply' then click 'OK'
To Turn off the Auto Program Detection.
1. Under Smart Firewall Click on the 'Configure' under Advanced Settings
2. Toggle the ON/OFF switch or OFF for 'Auto Program Control
3. Click 'Yes' when dialog box appears to confirm
4. Toggle on Allow Monitoring
5. Click 'Apply' then click 'OK'
6 Once more click 'Apply' then 'OK'
7 Close NIS2009
Allow NIS to re-learn our steam apps manually (you will be surprised how many times you will be asked)
Launch Steam and Log Into Steam.
Launch any HL.game, DOD, CSTRIK, HL, etc., and play
Launch any HL2 game HL2, CSS, etc., and play
Reverse Steps to turn on your Auto Program Control being as your steam apps are learned by NIS2009.
Good Luck,

Calendar Events / Time For 90 Day Reset
Last post by Krillin - May 02, 2009, 02:15:38 PMYeah, if any of you pay attention to the SuperHero MOD Information page. You will have known this day is coming. At some point during this day SuperHero MOD will be reset. We are gonna assume for BOTH R&R and FFA SuperHero MOD servers.
We do not want to put up whining babies about a reset again, but once again we will have to. If you don't like well, too bad just deal with it! We may consider running 4 months, but that is gonna entail harder to level EXP for long term saving. It is too easy as it is and we are gonna be changing that for the next reset anyhow. We are working on expanding the scale right now. Our gold is to require 5,000 or more kills to earn top level. This doesn't include the buying of EXP or the headshot multiplier which will be set to 1.5x's or 2x's EXP for these KILLS. (NOT HITS YOU FOOLS).
We are considering if at the time of the reset and you are here you will get to keep your EXP unless you are a high level player like 11 and above. For those of you that really know me, I have been know to 'pop the plug' on the reset before due date. Well, don't say we didn't warn you!
Good luck to all!

Downloads / HLGuard 1.8
Last post by Krillin - April 12, 2009, 10:03:05 PMPlease be aware. HLGuard has been down for some time now. Going on a better part of a year near as I can tell. United Admins has HLGuard as DISCONTINUED which doesn't surprise me much at all. All the REAL ANTI-CHEATS have gone by the way side, and the authors fear turning over the project to anyone to resume working on due to the fact the feel they want the code to write cheats and hacks and how to get around the Anti-Cheat measures.
Well, being as the website is gone, I am offering the HLGuard download to use in its original form from the HLGuard Z Project.
I will advise you to edit the hlg_cvar.cfg file though. Why the f**k would anyone want to keep the client's BRIGHTNESS to DEFAULT (50%)? I mean come on, get real you piss ants?! Not everyone can see in dark places of a map or a dark map like cs_assault2k. With this plug-in f**king up players environment settings how the f**k is this a problem! FFS what the hell were you morons thinking in doing this?!
You will require BOTH attachments below. Unzip the main hlg_1_8.zip then unzip the 2nd file which is the config update 1.9 and then move the hlguard folder into your addons folder and replace all necessary files.
The line you will need to remove here for you and your clients sake.
Once download and unzip the packages below, browse your way to /addons/hlguard/config/cstrike (or czero) and open the file hlg_cvars.cfg file.
Remove the following line:

Steam Issues / Error verifying STEAM UserID t...
Last post by Krillin - February 06, 2009, 11:15:40 AMI receive the following message: 'Reason: Error verifying STEAM UserID Ticket(server was unable to contact the authentication server).'
First of all, let's clarify something right now. Their statement 'server was unable to contact the authentication server' is TOTALLY false. Though it is true, it is not because the server is incapable, it is because the authentication server is NOT RELIABLE. So how is it the server's fault it can't contact their servers. Things that make you go WTF!?
Important:
If the Steam Network is down or too busy you may not be able to connect to a Game Server - to determine whether or not this may be the issue, please check the Steam Status Page - if the last update for that page is more than 20 or 30 minutes behind, there may be a Steam network outage.
If it does appear as though the Steam network is down, you must wait until the problem is resolved. *(there's a f**king surprise)
If you continue to receive this error message, the issue can most likely be resolved by restarting the Steam client.
If restarting Steam does not resolve the issue, please exit Steam and delete the following files from your Steam directory:
* Steam.dll
* SteamUI.dll
* Rename the ClientRegistry.blob
The files should be found at C:\Program Files\Steam\ (the location on your machine will vary if you specified a different installation folder, or if you have moved your Steam installation).
If you continue to see this issue, please contact Steam Support:
Contacting VALVe Billing and Support
Please do not contact us about this issue, this is STEAM's problem, not ours (as THEM F**KS make it appear). The issue is simply they are down and you MUST wait for their lazy dumb-asses to fix the problem if them monkeys can find their way out of a paper bag first!
