Das Gameplay kam wohl beim grossen CS:S-Update mit einer Engine-Umstellung zu kurz. Das hat man sich wohl auch bei Valve gedacht und bringt nun auch diese Sache wieder in Ordnung. Alle Besitzer einer Counter-Strike: Source Version fuer den PC koennen daran teilnehmen und finden den Client ab sofort in ihrer Spieleliste. Unter den vielen Aenderungen in der Beta befinden sich auch Performance-Tests. Alle Umstellungen koennt ihr im Changelog der Test-Phase nachlesen: CSS Beta 2 Fixed prediction errors that were causing greater weapon inaccuracy (bullet spread) on client than server.

( A value of 1 autotags the server with "bunnyhop" ) Additionally, weve made some Counter-Strike Beta only changes to simplify perf testing. These changes only exist in Counter-Strike Beta and will not affect Counter-Strike: Disabled HDR Disabled vsync Disabled motion blur Disabled stats Den ersten Patch fuer die Beta hat man auch schnell danach veroeffentlicht und dieser schaut wie folgt aus: CS:S Beta Patch Fixed a case where vsync wasn’t disabled Wer die Beta nicht spielt aber umso aktiver im Hauptspiel ist, den freut es doch sicher, dass Valve kuerzlich auch ein Update fuer das Hauptprogramm aufgespielt hat. Spielabstuerze und einige Layout Probleme, die durch die Aufloesung kamen, gehoeren jetzt nur noch den Erinnerungen der Betroffenen an! Counter-Strike: Source Patch Fixed a possible memory corruption on player disconnect, likely the cause of windows dedicated server crashes Adjusted scoreboard layout for 5:4 screen resolutions (1280 x 1024) http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=19 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 02:01:38 +0200 Nitro198 Heute Nacht erschien wieder ein neues update fuer css!Hier der Chancelog: Counter-Strike: Source Added Steam Clan Tag support ( Set yours in Options->Multiplayer->Advanced ) Added new achievement "CLAN WARFARE": Win a match of at least 10 players where the entirety of each team is composed of a single clan. All weapon fire rates now tuned to match their pre-update, tickrate 100 equivalents. (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1368659) Added automatic server tagging for some server convars ( "mp_startmoney", "mp_friendlyfire", "bot_quota", "sv_nostats", "sv_allowminmodels" ) Fixed some issues for players who were experiencing stat corruption. Fixed several server crash exploits. Fixed server commands "sv_disablefreezecam" and "sv_nowinpanel" not working on dedicated servers. Adjusted some DX9 shaders to look more like their DX8 counterparts, e.g. flashbang effect. Community Requests: Fixed entity I/O messages "OnPlayerPickup" and "OnPlayerUse". Restored UTF-8 support in the console. Added env_hudhint entity, for use in custom maps (The allplayers flag must be set for the hint to work in Counter-Strike.) Added client convar "sv_hudhint_sound" to turn off emit sound for hud hints. Restored the "cl_minmodels" client convar. Added server convar "sv_allowminmodels" that allows them to prevent clients from using "cl_minmodels". Added a button to Options->Multiplayer that allows players to reset their in-game stats. Note: Due to the nature of stats corruption, it is not possible to automatically fix all types of stats (such as weapon statistics reflecting usage of the wrong weapon). Players who suspect their stats are incorrect and wish to start fresh may want to use the new stat reset feature http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=18 Wed, 07 Jul 2010 01:34:29 +0200 Nitro198 Heute erschien wieder einmal ein neues Update! Hier der Chancelog: Counter-Strike: Source 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: sv_mincmdrate - 10 sv_maxcmdrate - 66 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. An update on the UpdateThe reason for the recent update was to move Counter-Strike Source (CSS) from the older HL2 version of the Source engine to the most recent version. This brings the CSS codebase in-line with our other games. This resolves long standing issues associated with the older engine and allows us to benefit from features and bug fixes in other source games as they come online, such as improved graphic effects and more accurate hit registration.During this process we created some unintended side effects, these are bugs. We are actively investigating all reports.A good example of this is bullet penetration changing on Linux Servers only; not Windows Servers. This was a subtle bug to track down and understand. It has been fixed. Rest assured we will continue to fix old and new CSS bugs. We want to retain the CSS gameplay experience that you know and love. We would also like to thank everyone reporting bugs and posting constructive feedback. This is an invaluable part of the process. The CSS Team http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=17 Sun, 27 Jun 2010 04:52:59 +0200 Nitro198 New Css Update Neben der Mac-Kompatibilitaet, die mit Steamplay auch PC-Benutzern das Spielen auf einem Mac mit ihrem Account ermoeglicht, gibt es auch fuer die Community neuen Anreiz. 144 Errungenschaften wurden mit diesem Update auf dem Weg gegeben und ein weiteres Statistiken-System ermoeglicht es euch, die Faehigkeiten eurer Freunde zu beobachten!

Missed from last update:-Removed an exploit that allowed players to change their in-game name outside of the Steam Community Linux Dedicated Server-Fixed srcds_run so -autoupdate works properly for Counter-Strike: Source http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=16 Sun, 30 May 2010 05:56:22 +0200 Nitro198 Neues TF2 Css Beta Update Valve arbeitet weiter fleissig an der CSS Beta, aber auch TF2 kommt dabei nicht zu kurz. Neben einigen technischen Aenderungen wie zum Beispiel das hinzufuegen der Kill-Icons fuer die neuen Waffen aus dem letztem Update, gab es auch wieder Aenderungen an zwei TF2-Maps. Nachdem Plr_pipeline und Cp_gorge vor kurzem ueberarbeitet wurde, ist diesmal Tc_Hydo und Koth_Nucleus dran. Auf Koth_nucleus wurde ein Fehler behoben, bei dem man durch eine Spawntuer durchschiessen konnte. Dies war ein sehr nerviger Fehler, der nun zum Glueck behoben wurde. Auf Tc_Hydro wurde ein spezielles Respawn Timing eingefuehrt. Wenn das Team einen Kontrollpoint erobert, bekommen alle toten Spieler einen Zeitbonus beim respawnen.

Zum Beispiel: Dominationen und Rache koennen wie in Team Fortress 2 und Day of Defeat: Source nun erreicht werden. Aber nur fuer eine kurze Zeit, denn es gibt nur eine begrenzte Anzahl von Teilnehmern! Die folgenden Neuerungen sind in der Beta - neben dem Spiel - enthalten: Counter-Strike: Source Beta Insgesamt 144 (!) Errungenschaften Lebenslange Statistiken Rundenbasierte Statistiken An jedem Ende einer Runde werden MVP und weitere Infos ueber die Spieler gezeigt Erweitertes Scoreboard mit neuen Icons, einem neuen Stil, MVPs und Avatare Cinematische Todeskamera Dominations- und Rachesystem eingefuehrt Avatare erscheinen bei Voice Chat Mehrere Erweiterungen der Source Engine http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=14 Sun, 09 May 2010 20:20:24 +0200 8gent *Z* Team Fortress 2 Update Gestern wurde wieder ein kleines Update fuer Team Fortress 2 veroeffentlicht. Diesmal gibt es neben ein paar kleinen Bugfixes auch eine Neuerung bei einer der Community-Waffen: dem Homewrecker. Dieser kann nun sogar feindliche Zapper auf Gebaeuden der eigenen Engis zerstoeren. Hier der komplette Changelog: Fixed players seeing cloaked Spies when they should be fully cloaked Updated the Homewrecker: It now damages enemy sappers on friendly buildings Fixed items not displaying correctly while playing back a demo Badge hire dates now display the time in GMT Unter anderem wurde auch ein Bug behoben, der es moeglich machte, feindliche Spies auch bei voller Tarnung zu erkennen. Zudem werden nun die Zeitangaben der Spieler-Medaillen in GMT - also der Welt-Standardzeit angegeben. Fuer Deutschland muss man in der Sommerzeit zwei Stunden auf diese draufrechnen. Das Update wird wie immer automatisch ueber Steam runtergeladen und installiert. http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=13 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 04:46:37 +0200 8gent *Z* Neue SamMax Items Nachdem Valve heute die schon bereits bekannte "Steam Client Beta" vorgestellt hat, ist nun auch Team Fortress 2 dran. Das Update behebt einen Fehler, fuehrt neue Items ein und hat noch einige weitere, kleine Aenderungen. Komplette Changelog: Added Sam Max items Fixed the Demomans Fro not cloaking properly when being used by a disguised Spy Reduced the damage bonus the Equalizer receives as the player loses health The speed boost was not changed Community Request Added a flag to info_particle_system to mark particle systems as "weather" effects The Lugermorph Level 5 Pistol The ultimate in semi-concealed weaponry.

Der neue Hut kann wie Bills Barett von jeder Klasse getragen werden Die Lugermorph ersetzt die normale Pistole Die Big Kill ersetzt den Revolver vom Spy Das Update wird wie immer automatisch heruntergeladen und ist nach einem Neustart von Steam sofort verfuegbar. http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=12 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:18:44 +0100 8gent *Z* TEAM FORTRESS 2: NEUE ITEMS Letzte Nacht wurde, mal wieder ein TF2 Update eingespielt welches nicht wie gewohnt Bugfixes oder Aenderungen am Gameplay mit sich bringt sondern nur eins: Content. Im Januar forderte Valve die Spielerschaft auf ihnen ihre Models fuer TF2 zu schicken, so dass jene spaeter ins Spiel implementiert werden koennen. Nun wurde die erste Ladung an Kopfbedeckungen veroeffentlicht, jede Klasse bekommt damit einen neuen Hut. Viel spannender aus unserer Sicht, oder aus der Sicht des auf Updates wartenden, nach Neuigkeiten gierenden TF2 Spielers ist die Frage: "Was wurde den gestern Nacht alles ins Spiel integriert?" ITEMS The Homewrecker (Pyro) The Pain Train (Soldier/Demoman) The Dalokohs Bar (Heavy) Level 5 Vorschlaghammer +100% Schaden an Gebaeuden -25% Schaden gegenueber Spielern Level 5 Notfall Keule Erhoeht die Capture Rate des Traegers um 1 Erhoeht seinen Schaden bei Kugeltreffern um 10% Level 1 Lunchbox Erhoeht die max. Healthpoints um 50 fuer 30 Sekunden HUeTE Medic Heavy Demo Spy Enginier Scout Pyro Soldier Sniper Neben den neun Hueten fanden auch drei weitere Items ihren Weg ins Spiel. Zum einen zwei Meelee-Waffen, welche (obwohl es nur rein kosmetische Models sein sollten) komplett neue Waffen darstellen, Die erste Waffe, The Pain Train, laesst den Traeger doppelt so schnell einen Punkt einnehmen, jener ist damit aber anfaelliger gegenueber Projektilen. Waffe Nummer Zwei, betitelt The Homewrecker, hat laut Beschreibung 100% Schaden gegen Gebaeude, allerdings nur 85% gegen anderen Mitspieler. Wie genau sich das auswirkt, ist zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt noch nicht bekannt. The Pain Train soll ersten Infos nach fuer Soldier und Demoman verfuegbar sein, The Homewrecker nur fuer den Pyro. Die letzte "Waffe", The Dalokohs Bar, ist ein Schokoriegel fuer unseren russischen Freund. Anders als das Sandvich heilt es den Heavy nicht, sondern stattet ihn fuer 30 Sekunden mit mehr maximalem Health aus, sodass er statt 300 nun 350 HP hat. Ob sich das auf den Overheal des Medics auswirkt, sodass der Heavy 500 HP haben wuerde, ist noch nicht bestaetigt. Wie gewohnt wird das Update automatisch heruntergeladen und installiert. http://www.paff-gaming.de/news/?action=show&id=11 Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:42:43 +0100 8gent *Z* Wiedermal mit kleineren Startschwierigkeiten, gibt es ab sofort die Offizielle Battlefield-Stats-Homepage BF:BC2 Spieler von von der Xbox360 und der PS3 koennen schon eine Weile diesen Service in Anspruch nehmen.

Solltet ihr mittlerweile so viele Spiele besitzen, dass ihr gar keinen Ueberblick mehr habt, so duerft ihr eure eigenen Filter-Listen anlegen um diese besser zu sortieren. Auch optisch macht die neue Ansicht mehr her. Eine neue Download-Uebersicht informiert euch einfacher ueber eure momentanen oder kuerzlich abgeschlossenen Downloads.An den Listen fuer Videos und Tools (Dedicated Server, SDK Tools etc) hat sich nicht viel geaendert, neu ist die detaillierte Auflistung ueber Downloads und Updatevorgaenge, erreichbar ueber den Menuepunkt Downloads. Neben dem bekannten Community Tab, ist das News Tab hinzugekommen, hier lassen sich, wie der Name schon sagt, aktuelle News ueber und um Steam nachlesen. Ebenfalls wenig getan hat sich an der Friendslist, diese erscheint, abgesehen vom neuen Skin, im alten Gewand.Um die Beta auszuprobieren oeffnet ihr euer Einstellungen-Fenster und nehmt im Bereich Beta-Teilnahme an der "UI Update" Beta teil. Danach Steam neu starten und es erscheint im neuen Glanz. Das bei solch einer Beta Fehler auftreten, ist bekannt. So sehen manche SteamUser keine Schrift im Menue und muessen die datei steam.styles mit den editor oeffnen und folgendes aendern: basefontbold="Arial Bold" in basefontbold="Arial" Jeder kann an der Beta teilnehmen, aktivieren kann man sie im Steam-Optionenmenue. Da es sich aber, wie der Name schon sagt, um keine finale Version handelt, sollte man mit Fehlern und Bugs rechnen. Im offiziellen Steam-Forum wird auch von Crashes bereits kurz nach dem Start von Steam berichtet. Wer von diesem Problem betroffen ist und deshalb wieder aussteigen moechte, muss den Ordner HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareValveSteamBeta in der Windows-Registry aufrufen und alle Werte darin loeschen.
