Team Fortress 2, Counter-Strike: Source, Day of Defeat: Source and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch Updates Released




Dec 15, 2011
Updates to Team Fortress 2 Cheats, Counter-Strike: Source Cheats, Day of Defeat: Source Cheats  and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Source Engine Changes (TF2, DoD:S, HL2:DM)

    Fixed a bug which caused Windows Aero Extensions video option to always be enabled, regardless of setting. Disabling this can improve compatibility with third-party programs and overlays, but may also affect performance.
    Fixed SourceTV showing player counts for the game server instead of the number of clients connected to the SourceTV server
