Sourcemod natives that extends the functionality of Pawn to interact with common Steam functions.
This is not an actual plugin, it's a library for other plugins to work and it doesn't interact directly with players in servers.
SteamCore makes use of an account to send requests to Steam server as a normal user would do. To get more of this plugin, it is better to use a full steam account, read this to check the limitations of a limited account.
The Steam account must have Steam Guard configured to send e-mail codes, so if you don't have it enabled, enable it by choosing "Get Steam Guard codes by email" in this page.
I recommend you not using your personal account for this
- A working version of Sourcemod.
- SteamWorks extension.
- SMJansson extension (.dll for Windows and .so for Linux)
To install SteamCore unpack the latest release in the Sourcemod directory.
To add the plugins and extensions restart the server.
After you have installed SteamCore you need to configure the Steam account's credentials, to do so open sourcemod/configs/steamcore_login.cfg and input the accounts credentials in the file, an example would be this:
"steamcore_login"
{
"username" "testaccountname789"
"password" "arandompassword123"
}
Use alphanumeric user/pass, max length: 32 characters
Now to login to Steam servers you need join the server as a player and from console or chat (i recommend console) input the next command:
sm_steamcore_send_code or from chat /steamcore_send_code
This will send a Steam Guard code to the configured e-mail of the account. Copy the code and input the next command with the code:
sm_steamcore_input_code YOURCODE
If everything went right, you should have now completed the setup process, if not use the command sm_steamcore_last_error to check the last error in the errors table.
sc_debugToggles debug mode (Default = 0).
Turning debug mode on will write a lot of data in /sourcemod/logs/steamcore_debug_DATE.cfg only enable it if you are having problems othewise it will only put extra load, huge files and console spam on your server. If you need to enable it check the errors and then disable it. Never let it on all the time.
Compiled versions: steamcore.zip.
Read the include file. You only need the SteamCore include file to compile your plugin.
