Update Released for Source SDK 2013 and Related Games

By Michelle-Louise Janion,

An update for CounterStrike Source Achievements, Day of Defeat Source Achievements, HalfLife Deathmatch Source Achievements, HalfLife 2 Deathmatch Achievements, and the Source SDK 2013 Base has been made available.

Important note for SDK mod authors: This update replaces the current main branch of the SDK 2013 Base with what was previously the "beta_test" branch. The previous SDK 2013 release branch as well as the outdated "upcoming" branch are now available for a short time as "previous" and "previous_upcoming" respectively.

The major changes include:

- Fixed potential security issues (thanks to Justin G. (aka sigsegv), Nathaniel Theis, Simon Pinfold for these reports)
- Fixed a case where changelevel2 would print a map not found error and fail to function in SDK2013 mods
- Fixed an exploit that could be used to crash dedicated servers

I tend to favour the puzzle, RPG, action-adventure and strategy genres. My particular favourites over the years have been Final Fantasy IX, Metal Gear Solid, Civilisation V and The Last of Us. I'm also a sucker for a series: Darksiders, Assassin's Creed, Tomb Raider etc.

I am a bit of a lone gamer as I tend to steer clear of PvP, and only play multiplayer with close friends.
