Okay just thought I would make this thread to sum up how I got my stuff working and what I learned so fare.
What platforms does it run on: Windows Only
There is no linux binaries. Source
Does sourcemod/metamod work: No cause it seems like it is a new engine branch, a mix betwen L4D2 & Portal 2 Source
Steam Library Errors
Code:
Unable to load Steam support library.
This server will operate in LAN mode only.
There are 2 ways you are suppose to be able to fix this.
One Run Steam on the server (Yah the client)
Two try this (Not confirmed?)
Update: Should be working now, and it is, but if you do not run the steam client the steam group will not work!
Branding a Server
Well so fare it seems like you should be able to set some sort of banner, but I can't find any where it is displayed (Look in the host.txt file)
So atm it looks like a shit deal to host.
Community Servers / Steam Group Servers
It got the 2 same cvars as Left 4 Dead 1/2
Code:
// The ID of the steam group that this server belongs to. You can find your group's id under your group mangement
sv_steamgroup <id>
// If set, only members of Steam group will be able to join the server when it's empty
sv_steamgroup_exclusive 0

First time srcds and long time not run a dedicated guy here
Can't get these settings to work: If I take them out the server shows up as a pub but if I put them in nobody can see the server apart from me when I enable lan detection
Been trawling through archives of LFD2 servers that had the same/similar issues and not much to say. I've stripped down my config to the sv_steamgroup line alone
Well it seems to me that even tho they are suppose to have fixed the "steam" errors, you still need to run steam if you want the sv_steamgroup to work...

After spending all night on this I have unfortunately reached the same conclusion.
Even running launching via steam with -console params in the advanced settings box doesn't work
Just gotta hope it's noticed and fixed in the next patch....

I downloaded it around 3-4 hours ago from hldsupdatetool. I've also tried installing and running steam - doesn't work.
