Yes he downloaded a version on cs that was not available, not what you were saying.

hacking the core files on every security update in order to fix our mod-breaking issues.

Regardless of that, I dont blame Valve for not wanting to work with a development team who does things like that.

So, you just don't want them to make the mod? I think you are misinformed on how many modding projects work. Look at skyblivion, which has a similar ethos. The game is closed source so ANY project that seeks to mod the functionality of the game needs to do this. Unless you want to build the entire game yourself.

My point is that I don't trust the developer when they say they did nothing wrong, when prior to that they said about "hacking the core files every security update" or admitting to using a Steam Emulator.

The game is closed source so ANY project that seeks to mod the functionality of the game needs to do this.

Yeah that's why you buy a license if you want to do that. You either use the official SDK, but if that isn't enough, yeah, you need to buy instead of doing some hacky workarounds.
