This Saturday, December 23, at 18:00 Moscow time (UTC+3) there will be a battle between topoviygus and PMSA on hb_dislike_d, hb_all1aNce and hb_mekko. There will be a separate newspost about this, but you can already stock up on popcorn :)

Meanwhile /mute menu on our server was modified, so it can mute specific person not in the text chat only, but in the voice chat as well (other players will still hear him). Thanks to bORN2MAKEPORN and Counterparts for their help with testing.

Besides at my request developers of ReGameDLL and ReAPI added the ability for using AXN on servers, however it's accompanied by lags similar to those you see while using 100aa on main servers. In this regard, I added AXN maps for passing only to the VIP servers. If this problem is ever resolved by the developers, AXN maps will become available on all servers.

And finally let's add maps from latest cosy map releases:

Hard maps
5oXen_vvn1ght_v27
pcy_alaska

Average maps
kzzNk_fresh - NULL textures visible with hook, cannot get back to start from finish by map means
wxii_snowblock
sl_hb_Mrazota
fly_bhop_worms - bhoplj as finish block
kzra_voovblock
5oXen_vvn1ght_v8
sl_riot_easy - missing texture
sl_toon
5oXen_vvn1ght_v24
5oXen_vvn1ght_v25
kzzNk_rost
kzzNk_govs
kzzNk_qwerty - clip brush blocking sc
kzra_shortclimb
malle_mountainlodge
malle_forest

Won't be added
kzro_gatsuclimb - missing textures, hope it'll be fixed
4W3ubMmZ_SSP - too short
lmx_greenhops - too short
ty_speedoz - too short
ty_parkovka - too short
ty_a2 - too short
ty_loona - too short
hb_Sh0rtcut - too short

Congratulations to the winners, we express our gratitude to the streamers and our donator koala! It was an interesting series of tournaments with many exciting confrontations, and we, in turn, gained good experience in hosting such events. Perhaps we will see a few more matches before the New Year :)

Then it goes like this: 1 plays with 5, 2 with 6, 3 with 7, 4 with 8.
The bracket of the second day of the cup is here: BRACKET

Registration for the third cup continues until December 8 (see previous news), and there is only a month left until the end of the winter map contest. In the meantime, some changes have occurred in the lan server pack. After the problems that XJ and Cosy encountered, they went under the protection of Cloudflare (with XJ later becoming unavailable) and automatic downloading of both the list of records and the records themselves from these sites became impossible. Therefore the links from which the lan pack takes lists of records (file \cstrike\addons\amxmodx\data\kzrecords\records.ini) now again point to our CDN. And on CDN the list of KZ-Rush records is updated automatically, the XJ list is not updated, and the Cosy list is updated by me manually.

The second thing that had to be changed was the bot plugin. Now, instead of downloading demos, he will again receive ready-made bot files from our FTP server like it was years ago. I left the previous version of the kz_bot.amxx plugin in the build, just disabled it in plugins.ini, and called the new one kz_bot_ftp.amxx. The files on FTP should be updated manually as well, so during November I selected the best records from three communities on our mappool from scratch. During this fascinating process, it turned out that we have 899 world records, XJ has 748, and Cosy has 508 (there would be more, but 315 demos according to our rules are considered illegal due to the +use script). For all of them, with the exception of 9 XJ records, which I did not find (here is the list, maybe someone has them, please share), I created bot files and uploaded them to our FTP. Later I’ll add some records with checkpoints there.

By the way if someone wants to find his world record among demos missing on our site, you can try to search in XJ list (demos are available for downloading here) or Cosy list (download demos here).

After the recent CS update it stopped working with lan server. To solve this just switch to legacy

mode (Steam Library - right click on CS - Properties - Beta - Select steam_legacy from the list). After this, Steam will update some files, restting liblist.gam, which is responsible for connecting the lan pack. To make it work again, replace your liblist.gam with the one from the lan archive.

Registration for the third final cup is open! The difference this time is that players will be able to restart timer by pressing the start button. The time limits on the maps are set in such a way that it will be possible to finish each map two times with a minimum of failures (maybe we'll adjust them a little more).

Cup initiators: koala, kyrlik-myrlik, topoviygus.

Prizes of the third cup (paid by koala, for commission-free transfers you will need to create a crypto wallet):
first place - 275$
second place - 150$
third place - 75$

Date and time (we start not in a week, but in two!):
qualifiers - December 9, 18:00 Moscow time (UTC+3)
double elimination - December 10, 18:00 Moscow time (UTC+3)

Qualifiers take place on 6 maps according to our rating scheme. We divide all participants into groups of approximately 10 people. The first group plays all 6 map, then the second, etc.

Maps for qualifiers (with maximum times on each)

If you want to participate, write “+” or “I'm in” in the comments to this newspost.

Another news is the new community map ty_hb_kyrlik_myrlik from TyIIIkA, presenting a series of bhop sections of hard difficulty. The mapper received many useful comments from mapcheckers edZika, hfour and abubas, and he, in turn, did an excellent job of optimizing and detailing the environment.
The map has been added to our servers, enjoy the game!
