How do you like the idea of ​​changing SteamID on the client side?

(I found Pandora's box and I want to open it...)

Forcing your client to think you are locally playing with a different steamid is one thing, while forcing steam master or any dedicated server to think so is another. If you found a way to do the later, I would recommend you simply report it to VALVe.

I would keep hands off that. Before anyone else comes up with the idea of ​​making sure that the innocent are banned because their steam id was used

I usually only read here since sp, but I would have to write something about it

I do not cooperate with Valve.

It was originally a way to "hack" admin rules on servers with SourceMod. (I'm still thinking about creating it, but the necessary patches are ready)


Maybe I really shouldn't do this...

Make the hack, but don't release it. Just send the hack to Valve and ask if one Month is enough to wait before releasing the hack.

Release it.
