Changes
Notable changes are as follows:
- Black Mesa: Special Tactics Sector, level by Trempler, now has a serious balance fix. (No more red team permanently winning!)
- Suspension, level by Hezus, now features night mode!
- Level designers can now change the sky with new entity "trigger_changesky".
- Map Compile Tools: Default subdivide value has been increased to 528. This improves world polygon subdivision on all maps, which increases frame rates, and opens the possibility for utilization of 512x512 textures without excessive subdivision.
Important: Dedicated server operators running on Windows must install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2019 (x86) re-distributable package. This is available for free here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
