An update for all Steam games has just been released. As always, Steam will
update your games automatically -- you don't need to take any special
action.
Dedicated server admins can get the update normally via the HLDS update
tool, or the dedicated server update can be downloaded directly from
this page [3].
Here's a complete list of the changes:
ALL GAMES:
- Fixed problem in Direct3D mode where the game would be unavailable for
some users. Direct3D mode should work now, but note that OpenGL will
provide a better play experience if your video card is capable
- Fixed regression that was causing the 'load failed' crash to happen on
level change
- Optimized some of the particle drawing code
- For mod makers - debugging mods no longer requires the steam.dll to be
copied into the game directory
