HOW TO CHANGE STEAMIDS OF CLIENTS Use cid* options in AUTHID MANAGEMENT section of dproto.cfg For example, if you want to assign steamids generated by IP for p47 clients that not support unique id generation, you should set: cid_NoSteam47 = 3 for assigning STEAM_x:y:z steamid to these clients cid_NoSteam47 = 4 for assigning VALVE_x:y:z steamid to these clients If you want to drop these clients, just set clientid to 5: cid_NoSteam47 = 5 And all p47 clients without emulators will be dropped with message that you can customize (see next section). HOW TO CHANGE REJECT MESSAGES WHEN CLIENTID IS 5 (DEPRECATED) This could be done using these cvars: dp_rejmsg_steam for legit steam (cid_Steam) clients; dp_rejmsg_nosteam47 for no-steam p47 (cid_NoSteam47) clients; dp_rejmsg_nosteam48 for no-steam p48 (cid_NoSteam48) clients; dp_rejmsg_hltv for HLTV (cid_HLTV) clients; dp_rejmsg_pending for unathorized (cid_cid_SteamPending) clients. Just put message to them and it will be displayed for rejected clients. Example, a part of server.cfg: dp_rejmsg_nosteam47 "Sorry, you're using old client, download a new one and come back ;)"
