Required HLDS Update

FlyingMongoose · Post by **FlyingMongoose** » Fri Sep 23, 2005 10:57 am

I'm on the HLDS Mailing List, as I'm sure ever member of the staff here is.

I was wondering when the "required" (As Valve says) update will be applied.

Its going out in the next few moments to all CS:S servers.

Will you guys reset our servers as needed or will we have to do that?

It appears that the new update doesn't like mani or beetlesmod? That true?

Yes, many source plugins are broken due to this Source engine update.

As part of the upgrade process, servers are shutdown, updated with new files and then brought back online.

beetle and mani are good about updating promptly. Those guys do know what they're doing. And I'm sure Metamod:Source 1.1 will be out soon as well.

metamod is still working. The beta VIP mod plugin is still working

To clarify, this was a SrcDS update and applied to both CS:S and HL2DM servers. It was not a HLDS update, so no HL1-based games were affected.

Well considering the way MM: Source works it makes sense it does work, it doesn't run "alongside" the server, it hooks into it, basically adding functionality creating an engine in which other plugins can run on. Creating a much more stable server environment.

those using beetlesmod get the bet version 57 beta5. It works fine with steam update

I will be applying it asap, however the server I administrate is near full and that's not changing. I don't take my server down under populated situations.
