Counter-Strike: Source Update Released

Product Update - Valve

Sep 15, 2011

Updates to Counter-Strike: Source have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Cumulative weapon updates

All weapons now have a new accuracy model which fixes many bugs and provides more intuitive weapon behavior
Weapons now have separate accuracy penalties for jumping, landing, and standing on ladders
All weapons are now more accurate while crouching
Accuracy penalties for movement no longer have a discrete threshold, but scale between crouch move and run speed
All rifles are less accurate while running
Fixed bug that caused the glock to fire burst rounds on three consecutive tick frames. It now fires burst rounds with a 0.05 cycle time
Fixed a bug that cause the famas to fire burst rounds on uneven intervals (0.1 and 0.05). It now fires burst rounds with a fixed interval of 0.075.
Fixed bug for the bolt action sniper rifles that caused their zoom state to incorrectly toggle when holding down fire.
Fixed bug that would cause the suppressor state on the USP and M4A1 to not be accounted for correctly when the weapons were dropped with the suppressor attached and then picked up.
Fixed fast suppressor switch exploit
Decreased range of shotguns, while slightly increasing damage
Slightly increased damage of m249
Sniper rifles now zoom faster
AWP fire animation changed to match 1.5 second cycle time
Fixed burst fire prediction of FAMAS
Fixed animation issue with elite dry fire
Fixed timing of sounds on Glock burst fire
Weapon spread patterns are no longer square
Dynamic crosshair now uses actual weapon accuracy, rather than a separate simulation
Increased run speed for Galil and FAMAS
Increased FAMAS accuracy and reduced spread for burst mode
Increased accuracy of silenced USP
Increased accuracy of zoomed sg552
Cycle time for dual elites increased to .12 second
Fixed firing of "stale" burst mode bullets on glock and famas
Fixed reload animation issue with shotguns under high latency
Fixed bug which allowed a CT to defuse the bomb in the same frame that it exploded
Pistols no longer continuously spam weapon_fire event when the +attack key is pressed. This has the side effect of no longer allowing the glock to continuously auto-fire in burst mode).
Weapons no longer continuous cycle the weapon_reload event when the reload key is pressed
Weapons no longer continuously cycle the empty fire event (and click) when out of ammo and the attack button is held

Fixed a bug where the client would have a ragdoll entity in CS, but wouldn't have actually created a ragdoll which would give a one frame glitch in the death camera position setup.
Fixed an exploit where users could disable flashbang audio effects using alias commands.
Marked the "mat_diffuse" convar as a cheat to protect against exploits.
