– sv_pure will probably be broken
– there won’t be any TF2 validating problems anymore on launch
– HUDs will need to be installed in a different folder

EDIT:

sv_pure now requires -sv_pure in the server command line to work.

Looking forward to it. Managing gameservers always felt annoying.

Well, time to rewrite all crosshair and hud installers…

Yes. It will launch as soon as you click on TF2 in Steam.

I’ll try to make TFTrue/AAC compatible with the new TF2 beta, but I think I will have to release the updates when TF2 gets moved to SteamPipe as well due to the sv_pure changes.

So this pretty much improves everything with no loss?
Sounds too good to be true, this is Valve we’re dealing with but perhaps I missed a few things

No. You’ll just have to either:

– create a subfolder in tf/addons/, i.e. tf/addons/P-REC and extract all the stuff there instead of tf/addons/

– pack all the stuff contained in the P-REC .zip into a .vpk and place it in tf/addons/

Easy as that, I like this system as it cleans up the folder structure immensely. I’m sure Orange will follow up and re-pack his plugin.
