Counter-Strike 1.6 Beta

"We have released a beta update for Counter-Strike 1.6.

You can access the beta by going to the Settings dialog in Steam, go to the Account tab and hit the "Change ..." button under the Beta section. Then select the "Counter-Strike 1.6 Beta" from the list.

This beta is addressing some regressions with the recent game patch. Note that you can ONLY test this beta by using a listen server, testing on normal dedicated servers will NOT work and will produce invalid test results. So make sure you ONLY test by connecting to listen servers (i.e servers made by the "New Game" button in the games UI).

The changes for the beta are:
* Fixed all sound related glitches with the Russian walk / silent running fix (including standing still sound, repeat sound, and always default sound)


We are interested in details of situations where you still get inappropriate jump or step noises in the game with this beta. Note that silent/Russian walking was an exploit and has been fix."


Looks like valve are finally on the right track to getting cs back to the way it was...maybe they can actually fix some real bugs sometime soon in the future as well.

Great news. Somewhat expected because they really did mess things up this time with the new update.

Hopefully it addresses the issue of sound when you jump

still not great, after you duck u cant move for a little bit, and you still make a foostep noise when jumping while moving slowly (like when walking). couple of other glitches etc too, but atleast it shows they're listening and trying to work on it so definitely a good sign i rekn
