What do you guys reckon? After playing for so long all these little changes makes it feels odd - pressing tab to look at scores looks too 'busy' now i reckon... havent played it too much yet - cant get into my regular server because I'm guessing Game Arena hasnt updated their servers with the new CSS stuff yet.

Oh and when you press F10 it doesnt close the whole game down straight away anymore - it actually ask you if you want to quit now... damn cant trick n00bz anymore :verymad:

will have to check this update

theres a massive sale on steam atm

This has completely ruined the game... It will also ruin competition. I liked it as what it was before. And I'm pretty sure 80-90% of the CS:S community agree.

thought they still used cs 1.5/1.6 for proper comps?

I've put a fair bit of time into it today... its alright but I like it before - more simple. They've made things seems a bit gimmicky - e.g. achievments, MVP, score board looks too busy etc etc...

I jumped on last weekend, why isn't there any gungame servers anymore?

The new Source engine doesn't understand the current metamod plugins, which include sourcemod. Source mod is needed to make these "mods" run. (GG, DM ect.) That's why you can sometimes see Node servers having no time limits with some people having 200+ kills.

It's like trying to run a 64bit program in a 32bit OS.

They use 1.6 for the world leagues. It still doesn't mean Source cannot have its own competitions. Cevo is an online organisation who hosts ladders and comps, in which, they include the game CS: Source. (And a hell of a lot of other games, Including on XBOX360!) Even CEVO's CS:S matches are not able to run because they rely on source mod to keep everything in order.

But yes, 1.6 is still the preferred competition game when choosing between 1.6 and Source.

Surely, just don't kill me for my tripple post... D:

You may or may not know, But australia's version of CSS is now censored along with germany. This means, No blood, and when you kill someone, they kneel down, lay down on their belly with their hands on their head. (Surrendering, Shown in the link below)

The player list overlay (when you press TAB) is now a lot more busy, A lot of players usually hold TAB and play at the same time (or even for a few seconds), now with it soo busy, the playerlist covers most of the screen (ie. You can't really have it on and still be able to see what's going on)

Now all the popup stuff, get an achievement, get your screen blocked, get killed. Kill 4 people, get MVP, and die by the 5th person, (ie. in a competition, the round ends, but there is still 2-3 seconds where you are still able to run around, you CAN still die and loose your gun, and have no money afterwards depending on which team won)

IMHO this update was NOT NEEDED. Yes maybe the update would be good for the server side letting the core being able to run on more than 2 cores, but that's it... Graphics aren't that much different, Useless crap. Counterstrike was made purely for shoot, kill, respawn. THATS IT. It IS a pure FPS. No extras. And valve decides to kill it adding crap which makes the gameplay for other people worse. 1.6 is still going really strong, why? Because they didn't add crappy achievements like they did in Counter Strike: Condition Zero. Player figures show that 1.6 is easily more popular than CS:CZ. Why? The extra crap... People play this game just for its simpleness.

A lot of players have stopped playing because of this update... Valve's to blame.

PS. Some people might not have the censor, I don't know why. But its luck... ;)

Hope that kind of cleared things up. I'm not that good in writing.. >.>

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.

      I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
