Well that's... interesting...
not doubting that there was a patch, but Steam didn't keep it on the bottom of the client where it usually notifies of downloads
AND I could still join manually which is even weirder for an out of date version
That said, patching via steamCMD did fix it so thanks for that!
You'll always be able to join manually via open but it won't show up on list. No problem. Happy it worked out. They did recommend not using steam client, I guess reasons like this.
Not using steam client, using steam CMD. I hadn't updated because I didn't know there was an update.
What I meant about the client was, usually it will notify of a game update but I didn't have that so I didn't know to update my server. Or was this update server-side only?
well the OP's problem might be resolved but i have the same issue with a different cause so i might hijack the name
i know the symptom but not the cause. i need the steam game server uid line to pop up in the console but it stops short "game engine initialization completed"
any reason that would prevent the server connecting to steam and making itself known? i watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RosSDkmlVqo this video and his gets a UID on first run? i HAD a server running wednesday night and played a few games before leaving it online for others to join overnight. it stopped working at 530 am the next day but i assumed that was the fibre exchange upgrade schedulled for 5-8am.
edit:apparantly running appupdate with validate for the sixth or seventh time finally found some dodgy files to reacquire and i'm back online.
