A required update for Counter-Strike: Source has been updated. Please run
hldsupdatetool to receive the updates. The major changes include:
UI:
- Added the following cvars to allow players to customize their scoreboards.
- cl_scoreboard_ct_color_red
- cl_scoreboard_ct_color_green
- cl_scoreboard_ct_color_blue
- cl_scoreboard_t_color_red
- cl_scoreboard_t_color_green
- cl_scoreboard_t_color_blue
- cl_scoreboard_dead_color_red
- cl_scoreboard_dead_color_green
- cl_scoreboard_dead_color_blue
- Changed the screen that appears when the message of the day fails to load to
display proper error text.
- Made the CT silhouette for the auto-select option in the Choose a Class
screen smaller and corrected its aspect ratio.
- Addressed a problem that occasionally caused characters to be colored
incorrectly on the Change a Class screen.
Gameplay:
- Made ladders easier to climb. Added cvars sv_ladder_dampen and
sv_ladder_angle.
- Fixed issue that awarded three points when the bomb explodes after the round
ends by elimination criteria instead.
- Fixed issue in which you weren't given credit for grenade damage if you fired
a weapon at someone then hit them with a grenade (in that order). Also fixed
problem in which grenading a player and then killing them with another weapon
showed as '*** in 1' on console.
- There's now a priority order for displaying win conditions when multiple win
conditions are set.
- If timelimit exists and is not 0, then show timelimit.
- If timelimit does not exist, show maxrounds if not 0.
- If both timelimit and maxrounds are 0, show winlimit.
- If timelimit, maxrounds, and winlimit are all 0, show nothing.
- Added a cvar to ignore win conditions: mp_ignore_round_win_conditions.
General:
- Disallowed the use of arbitrary command strings for the message of the day
screen. Now only a specific list of commands is allowed.
- Addressed issue in which AWPs and Scouts sometimes did not make the zooming
sound.
- cvar mat_showlowresimage is now a cheat command.
- Many development console commands which would crash the server removed.
- Updated source engine addresses many issues:
- Better flashlight effect
- Better HDR behavior
- Multicore rendering support
- Added sv_disablefreezecam cvar to turn off the freezecam on a server.
- Added sv_nonemesis cvar to turn off domination/revenge on a server.
- Added sv_nomvp cvar to turn off MVP stars on a server.
- Added sv_nostats cvar to turn off stats on a server.
- Removed -tickrate command line option and defaulted tick rate to 66 rather
than 33. This addressed a number of issues, including:
- Tick rate affecting how fast doors open / close
- Tick rate causing players hitting the ground to stutter
- Tick rate affecting the firing mechanisms of certain guns
