Steam updates

[{I}{K}{E}]

Counter-Strike: Source, Source Engine, and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch updates are available and will be applied automatically when Steam is restarted. The changes include:

Counter-Strike: Source

* New hostage rescue map cs_compound
* Added Source version of de_train
* Upgraded version of the CT player model
* Location names are shown in radio/team chat, and under the radar
* Server tickrate can be specified with -tickrate
* Added radio command aliases
* Added mp_humanteam cvar [any | ct | t] (forces human players onto specified team - useful for humans vs bots)
* Added new "match" mode for bot_quota -- If bot_quota_mode = "match", bot count = (human count) * bot_quota
* Bots no longer automatically follow humans (bot_auto_follow now defaults to 0)
* Bots are balanced before humans with mp_autoteambalance
* Bots can open simple +use doors
* Bots change their names to match the prefix when bot_prefix changes
* Several improvements to bot behavior when paths become blocked -- solves problems specific to cs_havana
* Bots won't throw grenades if something is blocking their throw
* Bots are better at only breaking objects that are in their way
* Fixed bug where a bot occasionally "dithered" rapidly between two or more targets without firing
bot_kick and bot_kill console commands use the bot's base name without the bot_prefix
de_piranesi - bots avoid the breakable crates better.
* A bomb exploding just as the round restarts no longer kills players at the start of the next round
* Grenades being thrown when the player dies no longer disappear
* Increased mp_limitteams bounds to 0-30, where 0 will disable this functionality
* Players' arms and hands can be hit by bullets now
* Target ID font is proportional, and it doesn't resize incorrectly after a resolution change
* Overviews don't show player locations when mp_fadetoblack is on
* Players with spaces in their names can be selected in the spectator GUI
* Observers can change their name at round restart
* Throwing a grenade right at round restart no longer results in holding a "ghost" grenade viewmodel at respawn


Source Engine

* Fixed a bug where snd_mixahead was not working properly. Should fix some sound popping problems for certain sound hardware when running at a low framerate
* Added support for a new surround sound buffering technique that streams six discrete channels instead of using DirectSound3D. Use snd_digital_surround in the console to enable this. This allows for support of Dolby Digital 5.1 on nForce2 hardware
* Allow mp3 playback at rates other than 44100Hz. This was requested by the MOD community


Master Server Query Protocol

* Added a challenge number to A2S_PLAYER and A2S_RULES server queries
* setting "sv_enableoldqueries" to 1 (default) allows old style (no challenge/response) queries to work. By default queries don't require a challenge number for clients on the same B class network, change "sv_allowlocalquery" to 0 to disable this functionality
* Changed A2S_INFO server query to require the string "Source Engine Query" appended to the end of the query packet.


Half_life 2: Deathmatch

* Fixed model exploit that would allow players to select an invalid player model
* Added weapon type to server log

Friday, April 1 2005

An update is available for Counter-Strike: Source. The update will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. This update addresses requests for more realism in Counter-Strike: Source. The changes are as follows:


Features/Additions
Doubled player speed when jumping. The effect to cumulative, so the more you jump, the faster you go.
Cut price of AWP by 50%.
Added akimbo Riot Shield to buy menu.
Removed de_dust from mapcycle.
Realism Enhancements:

Knives:
Between rounds, it is suggested that you unsheath the weapon and repeatedly press the attack key to air it out as the leather now collects moisture and creates pits on the blade, making it less effective in the next round.

Shotguns:
1. Firing the shotgun without ammo loaded will now cause it to jam.
2. When the shotgun jams, press F2 to fill out form DA-1823-00/A12-H8.
3. You should then hear a scribbling sound. When it stops, press F3 to send the request to LIDM.
4. Failure to do paperwork before pressing F3 will result in the immediate return of the unrepaired shotgun.
5. The repairs can take 1-2 rounds for completion. During that time, you cannot purchase a replacement firearm and may only use your sidearm or knife.

Player Models:
Several models now feature eyewear. This is a completely cosmetic enhancement with the following exceptions:

Part EP-7829-292-2 must be purchased and worn correctly at all times in order to see during the round.

In between rounds, you may purchase and use part EC-2231-833-H34 to clean your EP-7829-292-2. Note: that this does not clean the eyewear itself!

To clean the eyewear, you need to purchase and use the designated cleaner, EC-2231-233-H34, EC-2231-523-H34, or EC-2231-239-H34a respectively depending on your model's eyewear. You can determine the part # of the correct cleaner by asking someone.

Machine and submachine guns:

At least once every five rounds, press F1 to inspect the weapon:
A musical cue indicates that the inspection has started. Now press F1 again repeatedly to clean and lubricate the weapon.

Your Preventative Maintenance Status (either "cleaning" or "lubricating") is determined by the speed with which you press the F1 key and will be displayed above your head.

To accurately simulate real life maintenance mistakes, pressing F1 too quickly will lubricate either the bolt face or the trunnion block. Pressing F1 too slowly sprays lubricant directly into the buffer tube. All mistakes render the gun inoperable, though this may not become immediately apparent.

Experiment with keypress timing to avoid (and discover!) other common maintenance errors.

In order to balance the improved stopping power of a well-maintained weapon, the reloading process has been made much less reliable.

When reloading, you should listen for two or three distinct clicks over a period of several seconds.

If you hear one click or no clicks or more than two clicks, you've bent the link ejector chute and the gun will most likely explode on the next attempt to fire it, though it may not.

The next big Counter-Strike release is set to include two maps. The first map will be de_port, previously mentioned here (http://www.steampowered.com/Steam/Marketing/Mar10.2005/). This map is set in a resupply port for outgoing ships. The gameplay is designed for a balanced layout employing a mix of long sightlines with cover and close quarters fighting environments. The second map will be a completely redone de_inferno, a historical favorite at CS tournaments and competions. We'll be releasing some screenshots or other media from both of these maps in the next week or two.

For instance, the file cstrike/maps/cfg/de_dust.cfg will be evaluated when the map de_dust is loaded. This is useful for per-map rules, bot rosters, etc.

* Grates/chain link fences no longer affect bullets
* Counter-Strike player ragdolls are now affected by ragdoll magnets

* Bots use less CPU now, especially when in combat with far away enemies
* Extended the syntax of the bot_add, bot_kick, and bot_kill commands to also accept "t" or "ct" arguments.
* Fixed bug where bots would stop and become unresponsive if they wanted to hide in an area with no hiding spots
* Improved bot navigation on the windows and ledges of cs_italy
* Fixed recording value of cl_interp in demo files and restore value during playback


Source Engine

* HTTP downloads from the game server system support downloading .bz2-compressed files
* Disable old style (non-challenged) server queries by default (use the sv_enableoldqueries cvar to change this behavior)
* Added cvar tv_delaymapchange to delay map changes caused by frag/time limit until the whole game is broadcasted via SourceTV
* Fixed lag compensation invalidating bone cache for players moved back in time.
* Fixed lag compensation interpolation error between 2 ticks


Half-Life 2

* Fixed some NPC actions not being properly randomized


SourceTV (part of the Source Dedicated Server)

* Fixed memory leak in relay servers by releasing receive tables correctly
* Bandwidth output in tv_status in kB/sec rather than bytes/sec
* Running a new map command (spawning a server) shuts down TV relay in same process
* Fixed SourceTV chase cam following ragdolls of dead secondary targets
From: http://www.steampowered.com/index.php?area=news&id=416

me thinks the long awaited de_inferno is great for all those clan wars... and de_port looks like another map well worth to remeber also. as for seeing no updates in the hitboxes situation i am very dissapointed.

there is only 1 update im hoping they release.. and that is to fix those damned hitboxes. and the new t models are ugly as fuk.

[Djtima]

lol i must agree with you there...
it seems their heads are getting bigger and lips look like they have lipstick or somthin in them... very unusual

the T's look ridiculous in this update. i like assault though. very nice port from 1.6

[S!X]

If you guys dont like the new T models download skins for em.

[Tylerrought]

i have custom skins for everything skinable in css. it helps a lot.

[Djtima]

yeah... but i personaly think it takes away from the game when you got custom skins...
but thats me
and i heard that they are making the skin selection screen after they make a couple more skins... im guessing it will take a while before they bring it out, as they take there sweet arse time when making stuff

[Tylerrought]

what are u talking about? it adds to the game, it doesnt take away from it. how can having custom skins that match ur likes take away from the game? wow.... sum ppl these days are quite odd.
