#1 CS:GO update for 5/4/16 (5/5/16 UTC, 1.35.3.3) in CS2 General Discussion

Via the CS:GO blog:

Valve[MISC]
– Fixed possible remote code execution bug in KeyValues parsing. Thanks to xPaw for finding and reporting the issue!
– Fixed a bug allowing community servers to override certain game files.
– Added support in vbsp for clip brush textures with different material types.
– Added CS:GO in-game blog localization for Finnish.
– Significantly reduced holiday cheer.
– Added convars cl_weapon_debug_show_accuracy and cl_weapon_debug_show_accuracy_duration
— With “cl_weapon_debug_show_accuracy 1,” when a shot is fired, a 12 inch circle will be drawn at the Effective Range of the weapon, i.e, the farthest distance at which the shot is guaranteed to fall within a 12 inch circle.
— With “cl_weapon_debug_show_accuracy 2,” when a shot is fired, a circle will be drawn at the surface that is aimed at showing the area that could have been hit by the bullet given its inaccuracy.
— cl_weapon_debug_show_accuracy_duration ( default 10 ) determines how long the debug circles last.
— The further the shot is into the spray sequence, the more red the circle will be.
[AUDIO]
– Increased radius of c4 disarm sound
– Fixed some cases where alt-tabbing away and back to the game would cause incorrect sounds to play
[MAPS]
Cache
— Visibility improvements based on color-blind player feedback
— Texture improvements
— New vent models
— Added subtle markers for grenade throws (thanks James Bardolph)
— Added plant-zone decals to Bombsite B
— Added graphic for “Sun-room” (thanks Thurnip)
— Fixed fade distance on crate in checkers
— Fixed weapons being irretrievable under vent
— Fixed all known bomb-stuck spots
— Fixed an exploit involving flashbangs from mid into checkers
— Fixed pixelwalks at mid, T-Spawn, A main, A site
— Improved .nav mesh (thanks p_NM)
Nuke
— Improved accuracy of grenade clips on metal containers
— Clip brushes now play the correct material type footstep sound
— Performance optimizations
— Removed crate stack from CT side
— Removed railings outside HUT
— Removed railings at top of Heaven ladder
— Lowered ambient soundscape volumes
— Door opening and closing predictability fixed
— Improved .nav mesh (thanks Bez)
— Fixed +use interaction through tool or clip brushes
— Fixed double doors being blocked by their sibling door being blocked by the player

Rumor has it:

- A previous version branch titled "13532" was made available, this branch matches the state of the game from the last update
- If you need to or want to use this branch, right-click on CS:GO in Steam, click "properties", go to the "betas" tab, and select the "13532" branch
- Be aware however that you'll have very limited access to things, and you won't be able to play Valve matchmaking of any sort
- If you're a server operator or a league/tournament admin that wishes to play on the previous version, use "+app_update 740 -beta 13532" in SteamCMD

- More shenanigans involving chickens, the death message added last update now also says: "She was yours for <x> seconds."

- Low level changes, VPK contents changes, and script changes oh my! Low-level changes, VPK contents changes and... https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/c690d2144312491118dd8a432426053cb70e343a

#1 CS:GO update for 4/29/16 in CS2 General Discussion

Valve[ UI ]
Fixed a rare issue when scraping a sticker on a weapon could also scrape a sticker on a different weapon.
[ VAC ]
CS:GO VAC Bans and CS:GO Game Bans will be applied to all accounts that share the same phone number. See VAC FAQ (https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7849-RADZ-6869) for more details.

Rumor has it:

- If you're a developer wanting to interact with the GC by way of SteamKit or other tools, here's a protobuf change involving sticker wear: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/8de4af208c2500acefec9a292e2b7881f16dca97

#1 CS:GO update for 4/27/16 (4/28/16 UTC, 1.35.3.2) in CS2 General Discussion

Via the CS:GO blog:

Valve[MISC]
– Added the Chroma 3 Case.
– In-game blog is now displayed using the language of game UI when possible.
– Fixed rounding errors in timing for molotovs/incendiary grenades. They now deal exactly 40 DPS regardless of server tickrate.
– Fixed community server crash relating to graphs and games that go into overtime.
– Equip armor sounds are now slightly different for T and CT
– Added official game servers in Chile.

Rumor has it:

- As stated above, Chroma 3 is now a thing: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/55f4e6946889b1a40d0c2213c156caef95fc95ce

- Here's how the Chroma 3 Case appears

- Script changes, low-level stuff, and an early peek at the item schema: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/12f349f74b36759b064e2fb7b6c16d1c853a35a9
- Before you flip out about the whole "Inferno" bits in the low-level stuff: "inferno" refers to fire caused by incendiaries and molotovs, not de_infernew

#1 CS:GO update for 4/21/16 (4/22/16 UTC, 1.35.3.1) in CS2 General Discussion

Via the CS:GO blog:

Valve[UI]
– Adjusted Spectator Graphs: Replaced HSP and economy stats with Enemies Flashed and Utility Damage.
– Added main menu UI to register for a new beta.
[MAPS]
– Tulip
— Various bug and exploit fixes
– Mirage
— Vandalism
– Moved Nuke to the Active Duty map group.
– Moved Inferno to the Reserves map group.
[OPERATION WILDFIRE]
– Updated a Wildfire mission (YOINK!) for the bonus condition to use Santorini instead of Nuke.
[SDK]
– demoinfogo tool code is now available on GitHub and no longer ships as part of SDK.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/csgo-demoinfo, patches welcome.
– demoinfogo includes a GitHub fix for PlayerInfo being retrieved with wrong Entity if players reconnect during the match demo (Thanks rchh!).
[COMMUNITY SERVERS]
– Changed default value for cvar sv_quota_stringcmdspersecond=16 to make community servers that don’t actively configure this setting run with a more conservative command rate limit.

Rumor has it:

- The new beta is "Prime" matchmaking, looks like Valve's taking a page out of the Amazon book for higher quality matchmaking: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/79db109944a71a270e1b5b03440ee18e717dd9d4

- Here's the FAQ string that describes its intent:

Valve (in-game)CS:GO is running an experiment to find out whether players will have a better matchmaking experience when they are matched with players who are using a phone-linked CS:GO account.

To join the experiment, you'll need to upgrade your CS:GO account to Prime status. Just click the UPGRADE button below, which will bind your Steam phone number to your CS:GO account (provided it qualifies, see the F.A.Q. below).

If you own multiple CS:GO accounts, be sure to upgrade your favorite one since you can only upgrade one CS:GO account to Prime status with your qualifying phone number.

Once there are enough Prime accounts, we will begin Prime Account Matchmaking and will start prioritizing matching Prime status players with each other.

There's nothing else you need to do (except convince your friends to click that Upgrade button too so we get enough players to start testing!)

- They were suspiciously absent from the update that also included the Pick'Em trophies, but trophies for MLG Columbus participants have been added with this item schema update

- Graffiti was added to Mirage to commemorate coldzera's quadruple AWP devastation against Liquid, ImPieLife of reddit shared a screenshot of it

- Here's some low-level stuff and GC protobufs for developers: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/433a3fd9021ab616a33d00b8fa6e06643aafde67

– Added a missing collection tag to Shadow Case.
[SERVERS]
– This update includes a previously released patch for gameservers to deny setinfo calls for keys that weren’t configured at client connection time.

- Notice how that Cobblestone image looks all garbled? What you see *isn't* what you get on that front, so don't freak out as it isn't Valve's fault as it should be all fine in everyone else's copies of the files

Martyany patch notes for the mm fixes?

None yet other than mattr0d's remark about that one exploit, but if a test is gonna happen, then they'll likely be posted.
