It just sucks when the game you once could play, now is unplayable. It's one thing to be unable to play a game cause your rig makes the game run 100x faster then it was meant to run cause the game is so old. Even then you can usually tweak it to be playable. But if in the long run it gets rid of some of the retarded assed exploits that are currently apart of the source engine that will be nice. I haven't exactly played the beta so i can't say whether the changes are good or bad. I think the most important part is being able to have regular updates that will fix the exploits that come about. Some of Valves responses to exploits insofar that have been documented and given to them is either a slipshod patch or no response at all. I can appreciate them not responding because they were going to move to OB and eliminate a bunch of work that would have been trashed anyways. But we'll see.

Re: [hlds] Please VALVe, keep the STEAM_1 now
So you're saying because you don't got problems with it. Valve should keep it? It's not TF2 and DoD:S that are affected. Even GMod is affected by it and our achievement system in there works with SteamIDs and uniqueIDs. I need to program myself an application that changes 26000 text files. It's just that Valve doesn't do any communication about this. They could atleast announced it. But no, Valve sucks so much they just do what they want. Ywa AnAkIn . wrote: Please, don't change again the SteamIDs just because of the complainers. Some plugin authors already started fixing their plugin to support the new SteamIDs, and some leagues with huge database of SteamIDs also started changing them to the new format. I don't think they'll be happy to change it again to STEAM_0 if you change it back just because of some people complaining.

Re: [hlds] Left4Dead Client CPU Usage
When I got multicore rendering on, my CPU (both cores) is around the 100% (sometimes for a few seconds 95%). When I disable that multicore rendering option it runs around 60% CPU usage and without stuttering and such. The other options have been maxed and I normally play on 1680x1050. Changing the resolution and other video settings didn't help. But I'm happy the multicore rendering thing fixed my problem :) .
