Planned Server Downtime
The servers will be down (including this web site) for up to 4 hours at around 2200 GMT this evening to allow for an upgrade of processors, RAM, and hard drives.
Stats will be unaffected during this time, so feel free to peruse your (dreadful) CS:S stats. The stats can be reached directly at: h4xtbh.hlstatsx.com
Has it really been a year since the last update? Tsk tsk. That will never do. To make up for this laziness and to get with the festive spirit we've added two new maps to the DeathMatch server.
dm_jolly is a Christmas-themed map. Well, Christmas if it had taken a large quantity of acid, that is. It's a small, tight map with plenty of stuff - like, er, presents - to hide behind. Just watch out for the inevitable spawn rushes!
dm_speedcastle is a more evenly balanced map with high ground (the main central tower) being the place to head to if you want to pick people off.
Of course, the usual DeathMatch maps are still there in the cycle for you to enjoy. We'll be adding (and creating!) new DeathMatch maps in the new year, so look out for those as well. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of our regular players who have made our servers their home and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year
We've added three new maps to the DeathMatch server for your playing pleasure. The new maps are: dm_crackhouse20, dm_hangumhigh, and dm_2bases.
dm_crackhouse20 is a small and very well-made map that pits terrorists against counter-terrorists in classic style, but without any of that hostage-rescuing nonsense. It provides a great mix of in-your-face gunfights and long-range sniper action.
dm_hangumhigh is a seemingly huge map but well-designed for deathmatch play. More sniper action here, but with opportunities for stabbing your opponent in the back with the two level teleporters. Yes, that's right - teleporters.
dm_2bases is a small and simple map geared entirely towards running around and killing anything that moves. Set at night, the dark and spot-lit level makes for some jump-out-of-your-seat moments at times. Two raised areas should keep the snipers happy, but don't expect to be sitting comfortably up there as the small level size makes it very easy to get yourself ambushed.
Of course, your two favourites of fy_twotowers_24 and fy_b_dusttower are still in the rotation. We have also dropped the server size from 24 to 20, not least because two of the maps have a 20-player limit. Let us know what you think of the new maps and by all means make suggestions for other maps you think we should include. The only guidelines to consider are size (mustn't be too big or too small), number of players (at least 20), a good mix of open and closed areas (look at the current maps), and mustn't be too big to download.
Merry Nearest Pagan Festival to Jesus' Alleged Birthday!
H0 h0 h0! Festive cheer to all of our members and regular players (well, the ones on the DM server at least)!
We hope you're all full of mince pies and turkey to the point of practically exploding - as well as getting some CS:S play in. It looks like there is going to be something of a Clan NOS reunion of sorts on the main public server tomorrow or thereabouts. For those of you who don't know, some members of the long-dead NOS clan are founding members of this community. So if anyone is up for some public server action (and maybe some PCWs) then keep an eye on the servers over the next couple of days.
Right, time to load up on more food... have a good Christmas Day everyone!
Apologies to players who have been connecting to the Deathmatch server recently to find that... it wasn't a deathmatch server at all.
The recent Valve update prevented the CSS:DM plugin from loading correctly, but this has now been fixed. Also, there will be an update to the CSS:DM plugin during the next 24 hours, so please report any issues, stability problems, or gential warts, if you find them.
We know just how lazy you people are. You're the type of people who just can't be bothered to move your left hand five inches to the left to reach for a remote control to change the channel even when the omnibus edition of Antinques Roadshow comes on the TV.
So, with you lazy people in mind, we've created an extension for the lovely Firefox web browser that adds a special H4XTBH menu to the memu bar to make it dead easy for you to check out the latest news and forums at a click of the mouse. You can even launch Counter-stike from it and join our lovely public server from the very same menu. Who says we don't care about you? That's right - we don't.
If you don't have Firefox and you are a retard using IE6 or IE7, then click on the link below to go get it. You won't regret it, we promise. The extensions feature and Adblock Plus extension alone make it the most awesome browser out there. Honest. Look, even the girl in this picture thinks Firefox is simply hot!
To install our marvellous piece of H4XTBH technology, just click on the link below. Firefox will initally warn you that this site is trying to install something, so you need to click on the "Edit Options" button that appears top-right and allow H4XTBH.com. Click on the link below again and Firefox will alert you that you are about to install the h4xtbhmenu extension and that it is "unsigned". Don't worry about this, it's normal for extensions that haven't gone through the lengthy (and costly) approval process. Click on "Install Now" and the restart Firefox when prompted.
As you may have noticed (blind people exempt) the site has undergone a radical make-over, become leaner looking, and somewhat easier on the eye. Gone are the old graphics-heavy layout and partially-updated icons. Trinny & Susannah would be proud.
In particular, the forums and the chatbox are much easier to get around and view without getting a migraine. We'll be tweaking other bits and pieces on the site in the next few days, adding a couple of well-needed features here and there. There are a few little areas that are a work in progress, but we shold have those sorted by tomorrow. If you have any suggestions for what you'd like to see on the site then please comment on this post or scribble in the forums accordingly. This is your community, so we want to make it a place you want to come back to again and again.
No, that does not mean we will be giving away free drinks.
Keep your eyes peeled for our next announcement - something handy for your browser is coming very soon!
After having the Dust2/Office rotation on during the day for what seems like 317 years, we felt it was time for a change. So, low and behold, the daytime map rotation (that's 0300 to 1830 weekdays, and 0300 to 1400 weekends) is now a lovely combination of two well-known CPL maps: de_cpl_fire and de_cpl_mill.
If you don't have these maps, don't worry, just connect to the H4XTBH server when the maps are running and your client will automatically download the map from our download server. You'll only need to download them once, so after that feel free to connect and play away!
We will see how this rotation goes for a while. So far the feedback has been good, but we want to make sure everyone is happy with the new rotation before leaving it there. As usual, any comments are gratefully received.
In other news, the server is now running at 100 tickrate. So it is a good idea to adjust your rates to 25000/100/100 or higher, as you see fit. Again, feedback has been good with the previous good reg now even better!
The servers will be down (including this web site) for up to 4 hours at around 2200 GMT this evening to allow for an upgrade of processors, RAM, and hard drives.
