jason Wrote:A required update for Team Fortress 2 is now available. Please run hldsupdatetool to receive. The specific changes include:

Game Changes:
- Reworked the character loadout screens to support future features.
- Added the ability for players to permanently delete items from their inventory using the new Backpack menu. This does not reset achievements. Once an item has been deleted it can never be re-earned
- Added the ability for players to reset their player stats using the Reset Stats button on the Stats menu. This does not reset achievements
- Added a "player_teleported" game event that is sent when a player is teleported
- Updated cp_junction_final to score per-capture instead of per-round. This fixes the map not working correctly with Tournament mode and the stopwatch
- Scouts now drop the flag if they're carrying it when they start phasing

Fixes:
- Fixed instances where Steam connection problems would cause some unlocked items to be unusable
- Fixed the custom crosshair menu not clearing itself when "None" is selected for non-English clients
- Fixed warning about not being able to execute skill1.cfg when starting the dedicated server

Anyone else have this update turn their server into a LAN server, despite sv_lan reporting "0"?

Windows servers were having issues. It was just fixed.

Is Jason their only worker? He seems to release everything!

[Mooga]

Jason releases the main updates.
If you check the other updates, someone else posted about the upcoming L4D update and the HL1 Beta update.

Ohh okay.

Why do they still update HL1 Engine? It's so old

Oh right! That "Sponsored by Left 4 Dead"

Actually, Valve should have a thing on their website "Sponsored by Left 4 Dead"
