A noobie Question
« on: February 18, 2010, 04:12:06 pm »

I don't know if this question was already posted, but I would like to know, if GE:S will be someday available download by steam client, like Insurgency, Dystopia,etc...

Whats required for this mod being available from steam servers?

[sorry for my grammar]

Unfortunately not,  and also with MODDB's Desura.

We are working on a possible alternative.  Until then it will be a point of checking out the Goldeneye Source home page or looking at the server names to see if they state a new release...  the servers will be flipping from Beta 3 to Beta 4 around 24hr from now...

If anyone is curious more on this issue. Since we are not making original Intellectual Property, no company with legal entities can publicly support us (via file distribution and promotion of content). It would be a law suit risk for Valve or DesuraNET to support us via Steamworks, and Desura platform ; respectively.

We are easily popular enough and quality enough to be on these special platforms. We WOULD be on steamworks from beta 3 onwards if we were allowed access. This is disappointing in the sense the fanbase does not get such perks available with our mod, as other mods that perhaps have equal or less quality productions.

As enzo said. We are in the future (hopefully only months) going to have our own system of checking for updates. So for instance, you open the game and it tells you "you are out of date" etc and clicking a button in game automatically loads a content update that installs all by itself, and then you restart steam manually for it to initiate.
