At the current moment, they can't add new unusual hat effects as it'd overflow the stringtable we were talking about. So... it has a direct impact on potential future key sales. :P On 10/1/2012 4:25 PM, Eli Witt wrote: Are you kidding? Then they wouldn't be able to add more hats. On Mon, Oct

Valve seriously needs to remove the unneeded particle effects and all that shizzle, too bad we have to use 3rd party fixes for fixing this. Also, thanks! > Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2012 15:52:28 -0400 > From: rbemr...@gmail.com > To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds] R

Those changes happens only when running the server as root, if you do not run it as root those changes fails and the scheduler/priority is not changed... So if you do not run srcds_linux as root nothing changes... it's like those lines where not there :S Leaving all the benchmarks and hyphotesis
