CS: Source and Source Engine Updates

[CSN NewsBot]

Sorry, but this update doesn't remove the DWP system from CS: Source. I know that's probably what most of you wanted to see. C'est la vie! However, this update does fix a small bug with the system and also adds a few tweaks for the Source Engine.

Counter-Strike: Source


• Fixed a crash which could occur if the dynamic weapon price list failed to download
  
  
  
  Source Engine
  
  
• Added new cl_restrict_server_commands to prevent unwanted commands being run on game clients. The default value is 1, valid settings are:
  
  » 0 = Don't restrict any server commands
  
  » 1 = Restrict server commands in Valve multiplayer games
  
  » 2 = Restrict server commands in all multiplayer games
  
  
• Decreased startup time in some cases by rate-limiting the packets sent to clients during logon
  
  
• Improved responsiveness when entering map areas with lots of entities by automatically compressing large packet updates

Restart those clients to nab this update.

Any additional news on the team swapping bug and the defuse bug yet ?



Guess the performance increases are always welcomed though...... :)

I wonder if that commands cvar will mean admins won't be able to screw with your weapons loadouts and make you drop your guns?

Ah, that's better.

From what I've seen it stops things such as playing the 'access denied' sound when one team has like 3 or 4 awps for example. I'm sure it also extends to admins not being able to bind your movement keys to 'exit' for example :)

You can also take your config off of being "Read Only" now...



Seems there are some issues remaining though. Mainly with Zblock, etc type servers.

So when do we get to interact with physics objects?

So basically they are trying to stop everything thats not made by valve from being used with source which helps run servers?



sigh at valve be fucking great if they fixed some real bugs instead of fucking a game which could be so much more.

No, they are trying to stop the complaints due to players being victim of immature admins abusing ma_cexec and similar commands.



Valve has no choice but to deal with this kind of abuse.



And they have (like good sports) provided a CVAR which lets you allow the commands; if you're an experienced player and know how to protect or restore your .cfg anyway, then it is going to take you a couple of seconds to fix this.

Tip: If you're suddenly getting "Illegal Alias in use" on a certain server, disable this cvar to connect to it.
