CS1.6 Update Released

[CSN NewsBot]

Tonight, a small update was released for CS1.6. This update seems to fix a FPS issue that some gamers were experiencing from a previous update.

Half-Life 1 Engine


• Fixed regression causing Asian language versions to display corrupt characters

Restart your Steam clients to grab the latest update. You know you want to!

at last they released the fix!!! (even though i wasnt affected by it)

[-:Nighthawk:-]

Yeah I didn't have any FPS issues myself either, but hopefully this will quiet the storm of user complaints going on across the messageboards. Funny that the patch doesn't mention anything about FPS impact, though.

I only noticed fps drop with console open or while viewing scoreboard, which was strange because I can normally fill my screen with smoke and still get 100 fps.



But yeah, this update fixed it.

If you'd read my previous post, you could see that there were some fps problems as a result of the last Steam update. I have a P4 3.2Ghz/1GB RAM/X800XL, which is way more than enough for CS. As I said, I can throw about 100 smokes at my feet and still get 100 fps. However, in some situations, such as when I had console or the scoreboard open, I would get fps drops of 20+. Some of my friends noticed bigger drops at more times. And none of them have less than a 9800.



Just informing you, so you don't, say, make an ass of yourself.
