So, I'm re-visiting this again. I've been able to raise an hl2ctf 2.1 (sdk 2006) server by installing app_id 205 with @sSteamCmdForcePlatformType = "windows" and running it under wine; but that sucks - it doesn't honor -console and trying to use the GUI tool just crashes the server. Plus there's having to run it under Wine...
When I try to install the Linux version by using a stock install to cmd, AND setting "@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType" = "linux" the only Linux binaries I receive are hlds_run and friends, which crash - and srcds.exe and friendly dll's - Windows executables. hlds_run crashes hard, and I didn't expect it to work anyway. Is the SDK 2006 Multiplayer server for Linux completely hosed?
