# Support for GoldSrc network protocol
This feature is still work-in-progress, but for now it's available for all users, and we appreciate any bug-reports and contributions around it.
For connecting to GoldSrc-based servers, use this command:
```
connect ip:port gs
```
But keep in mind, there are requirement for server to be able to accept connections from Xash3D-based clients: it should use Reunion.
Without this requirement, you will just get "Steam validation rejected" error on connecting.
You need to use [Steam API broker](https://github.com/FWGS/steam-broker) and have purchased Half-Life 1 on your Steam account to be able to join GoldSrc servers.
That is because proper authorization with Steam API is not implemented in engine yet (but we have plans on it).
Broker will run on your PC and will be responsible for communicating with Steam client and obtaining auth tickets.
Also, make sure to set that broker as current ticket generator using console or edit `config.cfg` file manually:
```
cl_ticket_generator steam
```
Also, we encountered that some GoldSrc-based servers are recognizing Xash3D clients as "fake clients" and banning/kicking them. Maybe this problem will be
If you want to join GoldSrc servers from other device (Android/iOS or console), make sure to set proper broker IP address with `cl_steam_broker_addr` console variable. Default value assumed that broker is running on the same device as game client.
By the way, we encountered that some GoldSrc-based servers are recognizing Xash3D clients as "fake clients" and banning/kicking them. Maybe this problem will be
solved along with better compatibility with GoldSrc behavior, but may be not - we don't know logic behind this fake client checks.
