[Shawn Zipay]

The SteamPipe beta for the Day of Defeat: Source server is now over. The game has now officially made the switch to the new content delivery system from Valve.

Server operators should take note of the following changes:

- Converted the game to use SteamPipe content distribution system
- Faster updates
- Converted filesystem to use VPK's.
- Faster game boot times and map load times
- Downloaded files now go in the download folder.
- Client side mods go in the custom folder to make installation, organization, and removal easier.
- Client side mods can be distributed as VPK
- Dedicated server is now downloaded with SteamCMD tool.

Still have questions? Valve has answers.
