Steam - Latest Fixes and Updates

Posted by Blitz at 21:06 5/4/2002.

Valve have updated the Steam Support Site with some more news of the latest bug fixes and updates to HL/CS. You can check out the site for a full list, but here's a snippet:

• Dead bodies of hostages stay for entire round.
• Hostages show on the radar screen and flash blue. They will flash red when killed or rescued.
• Auto Team-Balance moves the last player to connect to the other team, rather than the one with the highest score.
• Added new setinfo item "_cl_autowepswitch" (default: 1) which controls whether or not client switches to picked up weapons (if they're more powerful).
• Updated version of maps de_train, de_vegas, and de_nuke.
• Fixed grenade deaths appearing as headshot kills sometimes.
• Hostages now automatically follow a Counter-Terrorist when he gets close to them (instead of making the CT "use" the hostage first).
• Created client cvar "cl_minmodels" (default: 0) that allows players to only use the minimum set of player models. This cvars sets it so players only see leet.mdl, gign.mdl, and vip.mdl.
• Fixed recording/playback of demos.
