Counter Strike: Source – Neuer Update aufgespielt

Erst vor kurzer Zeit gab der Publisher Valve seinem erfolgreichen Actionspiel Counter Strike: Source durch ein großes Update einen neuen Anstrich. Scoreboards wurden verschönert und einige Neuerungen hinzugefügt.
Nun verpasste Valve dem Ego-Shooter noch ein weitere Update, das ebenfalls einige Veränderungen mit sich bringt – jedoch nicht so gravierende wie das vorherige. Der Patch installiert sich wie gewohnt automatisch beim Start des Spiels und enthält vor allem Bugfixes.
Hier der Changelog:

• Fixed a crash that could occur after the bomb exploded.
• Fixed a crash that could occur when attempting to exit the game.
• Changed default values of the following server variables to reflect the increase of the default tick rate from 33 to 66:
• o sv_mincmdrate – 10
• o sv_maxcmdrate – 66
• o sv_maxupdaterate – 66
• Marked ‘developer’ cvar as cheat.
• Corrected kill/death reporting in gun games. Deaths were not being properly counted in games using instant respawn.
• Marked test_round_winpanel, test_match_winpanel, test_freezepanel commands as cheats.
• Added sv_nowinpanel and cl_nowinpanel options that can be used to disable the win panel that displays the team winner, MVP, and fun fact at the end of a round.
• Clamped ladder dampen values.
• Fixed jointeam cvar so giving it invalid values no longer spams the server console.
• Removed functionality of cl_minmodels.
• Fixed voice indicators to display at all times rather than just after their respective players have come into contact when -alltalk is on.
• Fixed scoreboard to display correct number of SourceTV viewers.
• Adjusted death notices to display under scoreboard.
• Defaulted ‘Simplified list’ to OFF and made the setting persistent.
• Fixed an issue that could make it appear as if a player already had one or more MVP stars upon joining a server.
• Made text on loading bar more legible.
• Added more materials that were missing for community maps.

Engine

• Fixed disconnect exploit causing players to be forced off of a server due to an overflowed packet.
• Fixed players being able to start the game using a DirectX level less than DirectX8.

Windows Dedicated Server

• Added Counter-Strike: Source to the list of games for the dedicated server when running through the Steam client.
