[Help] "Unknown Steam error prevent you from acessing this"

[racerxvip47]

when i use some non-whitelisted weapons and mutators (e.g russian weapons and mut likes max health) in a solo match, a message pop up "Unknown Steam error prevent you from acessing this" and i can't select perks. if someone knows how to fix this please tell and i'd appreciate this a lot
P/S: i tried to use per selector replacement, i doesn't work for me

I'm sure there is a post stickied about the whitelist. But ok, in short:

Whitelisted mods/maps allow you to use your perks and level them.

Greylisted maps allow you to use your perks but not level them. (No such thing as a grey listed mutator, only maps.)

Unlisted mods/maps will not allow you to use your perks. Or level your perks. That error message is the games way of saying, "You failed the whitelist check, so you can't use your perks."

You need either the perk replacement mutator or better yet Marco's ServerPerks mutator.

This thread doesn't really belong in the coding section.


Here's the sticking from general modding:

******************************LISTING STATUS******************************
due to the fact that certain mutators would abuse perks and make leveling easier, TWI implemented a listing system as follows:

THE WHITE LIST: mods/muts/maps on the white-list have both perk usage AND leveling available. These have been tested by TWI and its been determined that they don't abuse the perk system. There IS NOT as system for determining if a mod/mut/map is white-listed. sorry. TWI is constantly changing the list as new listings are added and old ones are taken off (either due to discovered exploits OR a new version). There are suggestions as to how a system would be implemented to solve this, but TWI does not wish to continuously update the white-list and use up bandwidth for endless patching

THE GRAY LIST: contains mods/muts that are either in white-list limbo or don't quite have what it takes to make the white-list. These mods will allow you to USE perks, but NOT LEVEL them. Stats will increase on the perk screen (sometimes) but they WILL BE RESET at the end of the map. Many weapons end up here waiting for true white-listing.

THE "BLACK" LIST: the unofficial name of "the other stuff", the black-list is all the stuff that is not on the other lists. Either its a map with exploits or a mut that IS an exploit, these are things that have yet to be submitted for white-listing, have been rejected for white-listing, or are so obviously not list-able that they won't even be submitted for white-listing. These are mods that abuse perks or don't use perks (the WTF mut and Server Perks have internal perk systems independent of TWI perks.).
