TF2 Servers will be unstable

[Bottiger]

Update: all plugins have been fixed. However there may still be sporadic crashes as usual.

Valve has said that the Halloween update will ship with many plugin-breaking changes. From testing the plugins on the beta, we verified that all C++ plugins will need to be rebuilt or they will not even load.

This includes sourcemod, metamod, and the 9 C++ plugins we use. They are also not backwards compatible so when the servers automatically update, they will be restarted again to load the new plugins.

Between this time, you can expect many features to stop working such as australium points, aimbot and crithack detection, entire gamemodes such as saxton hale and deathrun, donator hat effects and donator weapons.

This would effect !votemenu and reporting as well, correct?

 

[Crimmy]

Oh Valve, how I love thee.

yup.
i'd suggest turning on valve voting on rotations when sourcemod is broken

 

[Xtreme2damax]

Well damn, I'm not too bothered about it however, eventually full functionality will be restored.

 

[takethepants]

Yeah, but they should give people two weeks at least to fix bugs.

 

[SPYderman]

I wonder how long it will take to get all the plugins fixed on the servers

Oh Lord, looks like we're in for a hell of a ride, folks.

Haven't been able to play on the server for a month so this event looks so fun.

 

[GangnamStyle]

When will the servers upgrade?

 

[Bottiger]

They will upgrade soon. I have already fixed our own plugins. I am just waiting on sourcemod.

No HOMO...

 

[Bottiger]

There is a sourcemod bug that causes a crash whenever someone joins. I am waiting for that to be fixed.
