What's inside GoldClient

  1. Inspect update repository and depot information

    GoldClient provides two commands for debugging update repositories: @depot_dump lists all available tags (versions) in the update repository, and @depot_info provides general information about the current update repository.
    @depot_dump
    @depot_info
  2. Understand GoldClient security and VAC safety

    GoldClient is a standalone client that does not inject into Steam or original CS 1.6 processes and does not modify official game executable files (.exe, .dll). It uses the official Steam API only to retrieve public information (status, nickname, avatar). Because it does not modify game logic, shooting mechanics, or network protocols, it is not considered a cheat and does not cause VAC bans. To prevent Steam's 'Verify integrity of game files' feature from overwriting custom client files, it is recommended to install GoldClient in a separate directory rather than the Steam directory.
  3. Validate FastDL file content

    The system now implements stricter content validation for FastDL files. It verifies that the file data matches its extension to prevent the use of corrupted or invalid content.
  4. Integrate GoldClient API using the AMXX module

    GoldClient now provides an AMXX module that allows developers to interact with the GoldClient API within the AMXX environment.
  5. Monitor server status and performance

    Retrieve information about the server's current state, connected players, and hardware performance.
    status        # Displays map, player list, SteamIDs, ping, etc.
    stat          # A formatted version of the status command
    stats         # Displays CPU, FPS, Uptime, and other performance stats
    users         # Shows a list of players on the server
    user <name|#userid> # Shows userinfo for a specific player
    maxplayers <number> # Sets the maximum number of player slots
  6. Discord RPC integration for game status

    GoldClient now integrates with Discord Rich Presence (RPC) to automatically display the user's current game status in their Discord profile.
  7. Configure HUD Radar using new ConVars

    The HUD Radar now supports multilayers overview maps and a halo effect that triggers when a bomb is planted. You can customize the radar behavior using the following Console Variables (ConVars):
    hud_radar_always_centered
    hud_radar_icon_scale_min
    hud_radar_square_with_scoreboard
    hud_radar_map_solidcolor
    hud_radar_shapecolor
    hud_radar_table_rotate
  8. CS 1.6 and Condition Zero server browser cross-compatibility

    GoldClient 2.4.0.0 introduces cross-compatibility between Counter-Strike 1.6 and Condition Zero within the server browser, allowing users to see and join servers across both titles.
  9. Configure HUD Radar and map overview

    GoldClient+ includes tools for generating HUD radar map images and a combined CSDE mode (combining hostage rescue and bomb defusal). In dev_overview 1 mode, users can create map overview images in any game resolution and automatically generate overview scripts.
    hud_radar_takeshot 1 // Default: 1, auto-generates map image for HUD radar
    hud_radar_takeshot_quality 65 // Default: 65, quality of the generated image (0-100)
  10. FastDL content validation for security

    The client has implemented strict content verification for FastDL files. The client now validates that the file data matches its extension to prevent the loading of corrupted or malicious content.
  11. View country flags in the server browser

    Country flags are now displayed in the 'Favorites' (Избранное), 'Friends' (Друзья), and 'History' (История) tabs within the server browser to help identify server locations.
  12. Understand GoldClient security and VAC safety

    GoldClient is a standalone client that does not inject into Steam processes or modify the original CS 1.6 executable files (.exe, .dll). It uses the official Steam API only to retrieve public information (status, nickname, avatar). Consequently, using GoldClient does not result in a VAC ban. To prevent Steam's 'Verify Integrity of Game Files' feature from deleting or replacing custom client files, it is recommended to install GoldClient in a separate directory rather than the Steam folder.
