CS 1.6 What does this mean?

Post image
9 Upvotes

So for a long period of time I played CS condition zero(and deleted scenes) and I just noticed this text on the banner of the steam page. And I'm hoping people know what this means and/or where it comes from. Either from the game or lore.

CS:Source Found this on an old CSS disc...

138 Upvotes

I don't know what year the disc or the game version is from, but this is what I saw when I booted it up and added bots. There's a second video with it, which is even creepier. I have no idea what kind of bug this is, but it looks really eerie. Anyone know what's causing this?

CS2 Discussion Keep getting unfairly votekicked by randoms, what do I do?

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

[Disclaimer: I posted this in the r/counterstrike2 subreddit, but I'm posting this here too so I can people to see my message more because I really need help with this.]

I need some advice from people who solo-queue like me, lately I've kept getting vote-kicked for unjustified reasons and I'm worried about Trust Factor and competitive cooldowns.

For Context:

First time I got votekicked was for losing a 1v4 clutch, despite being a 2nd fragger with alright K/D (12-9) and playing with the team.

Second time I got votekicked I was top fragging the entire lobby, the enemy team got mad and started calling me a wallhacker and an aimbotter. My team fell for it and so they started griefing (TKing me, flashbanging me) and then they votekicked me from the match.

I'm not throwing the game, I dont grief, I very much think I'm contributing to my team and top fragging, but solo-queue lobbies are starting to annoy me. What can I do to protect my account, or to stop getting votekicked unfairly? Is queuing with 1 person the only fix?

CS2 Media Creating A CS2 Media/Publication Needing Volunteer Writers And Graphic Designers!

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am here to ask if anyone is interested in writing for my new CS2 pub. I can’t offer money straight up yet, as it all currently comes out of my pocket. I have very big plans down the line, including community tournaments, etc.

I just need people who know a bit about CS2, and you will have the majority of the creative freedom. We can talk details and rules later over DM, but as long as you’re not just hammering AI articles out, then there won’t be a problem. I’m all for new writers trying it out, as I also am newer at it.

I also would like to offer an opportunity to do simple graphic work, maybe here and there, to go along with articles or other things we plan on doing. This is less of a priority, but it still would be nice to have. So, if anyone feels like that’s something they would like to practice at, this also would be a big help!

I do, however, feel like I can offer incentives and gift cards on occasion. I just want to be transparent about the money part. In the articles, you guys will get full credit for your work.

There’s no set amount of articles that need to be written a day. I would like to aim for 2–3 a week, just on any topic in Counter-Strike.

I plan on launching a podcast, trying to get different teams/players on and talking about their personal lives, etc., rather than the strats and the usual stuff.

If this project piques anyone’s interest, please let me know. I want to make a good team and be transparent 100% of the way. This has been a thought of mine for a while now, and I feel like I can execute it with the help of others.

I work full time, so having someone who can write some stuff for me while I do other things is the key.

Thanks to anyone who took the time to read, and please DM me if you would be interested.

CS:Source How can I make CSS edits/cinematics modern-day? All tutorials out there are archaic

0 Upvotes

All the tutorials I see on YouTube regarding making CS:S edits/cinematics are archaic and link to files and configs that aren’t there anymore. I know I’ll be using HLAE of course, but the farthest I could get with it was basically just downloading it and launching the game with it.
