#18 ESEA Matches cancelled 9/24 in TF2 General Discussion

TF2 is configured with the "checkforupdatesbeforelaunch" attribute which instructs Steam to ALWAYS check for an update first before launching the game, so anyone that launches the game to play their matches should all acquire the update when they go to launch if Steam scheduled it for later or if they haven't yet autoacquired it and should be able to play their matches without hitches.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4KHdmlm93s

- Matches may run into delays tonight
- The "sep_03" previous version branch is still available but going to that will revert the gameplay changes as well

- If you were waiting on the Shadow Case and the key to become available, they are available now that Valve restarted the GC
- If you bet "between 10 PM and 10:30 PM CDT" for when Valve would restart the GC, you are correct!

- Here's the item schema update: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/SteamTracking/commit/55c51c1b46d17412c8465054b08b9f0202dafd96

#1 TF2 update for 7/15/15 (7/16/15 UTC) in TF2 General Discussion

Via HLDS:

Valve- Fixed an issue with Unusual Revolvers where the unusual effect would sometimes not disappear when the Spy would feign death, disguise, cloak, etc.
- Fixed font rendering issues for Mac clients
- Fixed a case where map textures would fail to load properly in compressed maps (thanks to Egan and Geit for the report and test case)
- Fixed a case where Campaign Coins weren't displaying the correct stats based on the number of submitted contracts
- Everyone affected by this bug has received the maximum contract points (including bonus points) for the missing contracts
- Security/crash fixes (thanks to Nathaniel Theis for these reports)
- Fixed a crash caused by sending malformed network data to clients and servers
- Fixed an exploit that could be used to bypass sv_cheats
- Fixed the Spy-cicle causing a fire-immune bubble to be displayed when the Spy is cloaked
- Fixed skinned weapons not rendering properly for customers on older shader model 2.0 hardware
- Fixed speed particles on the Spy not disappearing when cloaking
- Added ETF2L 6v6 Season 21 tournament medals
- Added numerical health value to the enemy health display in the freezecam
- Reloading a weapon can no longer be triggered with '+reload' while the weapon is firing
- Updated several materials to fix issues caused by mat_picmip
- Updated the localization files
- Updated maps
- Fixed an exploit related to the final control point and dropped weapons on Badwater, Barnblitz, Borneo, and Goldrush
- Fixed incorrect cube maps on Powerhouse
- Updated maps have been compressed to save space
- Updated Hammer tools
- Fixed bspzip requiring a -game parameter while simultaneously not allowing it
- Fixed bspzip -addfiles improperly handling newlines in some cases
- Fixed bspzip ignoring excess arguments with no warning
- Fixed bspzip help text for -extractfiles not indicating that a target directory is required

Rumor has it:

- Semi-related, but a warning for server operators running TF2 servers on Windows Server 2003: Microsoft ended extended support for Windows Server 2003 yesterday, leaving it in the same position as Windows XP with no more security fixes to be delivered. If you're still on Server 2003 (hopefully you already moved), consider moving to Windows Server 2008 (R2), 2012 R2, or even a Linux distro

- Item schema update: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/SteamTracking/commit/3ccf2c43ad68cb186c3035ff213fdf1ba9b6fe4a
- Medal images are the same ones from recent ETF2L seasons as recent as season 18

- Strings: https://github.com/SteamDatabase/GameTracking/commit/9a688a5b649352225fe242de6076b555a683abec
- Presumably due to a recent new Chicago ruling, the disclaimer about sales taxes no longer mentions Washington state specifically
- This disclaimer was updated in TF2 as well to match the one recently updated in CS:GO
