I have recently encountered an issue on some of our customer’s servers. From time to time, some players that use STEAM clients are identified as using VALVE (non steam) clients, so I tried to get to the bottom of it. At first, I suspected that dproto is the one causing issues, but this happened also on steam only servers. The funny thing was that this happened only for some of the players and at random moments. This wasn’t a big issue at the beginning, but the guys who weren’t identified as using steam clients were not able to use their admin rights! To explain this in detail, this is what I got under uniqueid field when I used the status command in console:I have recently encountered an issue on some of our customer’s servers.
