It's a matter of file structure. I really haven't looked into why Neotokyo's format works, but the differences to what we tried are:
  • hl2.exe in the root folder; we had it in an 'sdk' folder (which worked for the 2013 SDK)
  • steam_appid.txt with our appid inside in the root folder
  • our appid in gameinfo.txt
  • SDK files extracted from the Source SDK Base 2006 vpks into the root folder; we had them extracted into an 'sdk' folder (which worked for the 2013 SDK)
This allows us to run "hl2.exe -game FortressForever" and it just works.
