Same here. Been trying to set one since November with my own tag and it doesn't work. Seems like a common problem a lot of people have.

I know many players where their tag works but others dont. There was another discussion about this and someone was able to clarify.



"Hello,

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing an issue with your clan tag in Counter-Strike: Source. Unfortunately we do not provide direct support with these custom clan tags here at Steam support.

The community who still play the game are likely to have experienced issues similar to yours and can offer helpful advice.

Please visit the associated Discussions page for help with your game-specific issue:

Hello, Community.


This issue has already been reported to the developers. Hopefully it will be fixed with the next update for CS:S, which often gets released in June/July.

Тег клана работает только в группах, которые были созданы очень давно (примерно до 2015 года). Если вы создадите группу сейчас, тег клана не будет работать в CS: Source.
Скорее всего, это связано с каким-то обновлением игры после 2015 года.

The clan tag only works in groups that were created a long time ago (until about 2015). If you create a group now, the clan tag will not work in CS: Source.
Most likely, this is due to some update of the game after 2015.

Common bug. Lot of hits when googling, just no solution. Same as my github comment...

TLDR: Solution end of page 2

I have tried several groups. Some have worked in CS:S. They all work fine in CS:GO.
Tried manual input of cl_clanid with the ID from 103582791466494162 that I collected from this page.
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/AAcrew2/memberslistxml/?xml=1
I created the group.

In the console in CS:S I tried
cl_clanid 103582791466494162
Did not work.

When visiting the admin page of my group AAcrew2 there is an ID number listed 36972754
So I tried that in the console in CS:S
cl_clanid 36972754
Did not work.

I have tried setting the clan tag via the GUI as well
Did not work.

I tested clanids that work as well.
They work in game (CS:S) via the GUI
They work in game console (CS:S) via "cl_clanid id#fromadminpage"
They do not work in game console (CS:S) via "cl_clanid id64#fromgrppagexml"

Notes on the hud_centerid error.
The error from hud_centerid comes when clicking ok on the multiplayer advanced menu. The "center player names" option is still on this menu but the cvar hud_centerid has been removed from the game it appears. The clan tag not working glitch in CS:S and hud_centerid error in console are most likely not related. The hud_centerid error is always there even with working clan tags.

I hope one day this glitch gets looked at by someone that can tell us what the problem is so we can work around it at least. That would be nice know since a fix is highly unlikely

#clanid #cl_clanid can't set clanid CS:S

Update: I did even more tests.
I was thinking that changing the tag after the group was created was not being checked for dupes(on admin page of group after group creation).
I also thought maybe the group needed to be active and multiple people.
I tested all of this and have nothing that works.
I then thought maybe its just my account. I had a friend on another computer make a group and add me. All show in the CS:S menu but revert to "NONE" when exiting the menu.

So it is really unknown what is causing this. One theory I have is that CS:S is programmed to work up to 6-7 digit clan id numbers and new steam group ids are 8 digits long. So if anybody has an 8 digit clanid tag working in CS:S that would kill that theory.

Another thing I found out when changing the clan tag in the steam group is the that the new tag it not showing in the CS:S GUI or showing the change in game. After googling I found that if you delete(#backup) the \Steam\userdata folder and restart steam the updated tag info is then loaded. This means that some part of the clanid information is in the userdata folder... maybe a place here to make a workaround/hack to show my clan tags

I hope one day this glitch gets looked at by someone that can tell us what the problem is so we can work around it at least. That would be nice know since a fix is highly unlikely
