Serious bug.

[DJ_MikeyRevile]

It dosnt happen often, but it does happen unfortunately. I do not think it is race related either, reason being is it is a recent problem that started not to long ago. It cant be due to zero losing some code on races either, so that leaves me to think it is a CSS issue. It might behoove one of you to link to the most recent steam and css updates. i would but i am currently at work. I will also look for the demo when i get home.

to best describe the bug, its like every single player in the server was granted material wall hacks.

Edit: i will continue to do some research here at work, in the mean time.. if it happens again, record the following.

1. Console log
2. Demo if need be
3. what where you and the other players doing? (screenie of playerlist - what races were being played when the materials went missing)
4. How many players?
5. any strange player behavior?
6. any noticeable preludes to the final event? (i.e. do textures blink before they disappear)


all this info is useful for pin pointing where the bug originates from, gather as much as possible!



EDIT 2: Most recent CSS update.

Counter-Strike: Source Update Released
Product Update - Valve
An update to Counter-Strike: Source has been released. The update will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Limit the effective FOV of players using wide-screen resolutions with aspect ratios wider than 1.85:1. The sv_restrict_aspect_ratio_fov ConVar can be changed to remove the restriction or make the restriction also apply to full-screen players.
Fixed a demo playback crash
Changed the way bot counts are displayed in the server browser: the bot column is now next to the player column and always visible. Bot count is no longer subtracted from maxplayers.
Adjusted error messages on servers when players drop due to Steam authentication failure to be more clear
Additional important server messages now go to the server log instead of just the console
Fixed the HUD radar not using the correct colors for players
Fixed the HUD radar background disappearing after level change
Fixed the class menu models not animating correctly
