custom maps!
yes please
I think it can be done!
I think it will be cool!
would be nice, yeah
Good idea, hope it will be.
nice
yes please!
it will be good that we will play the old version of the game
``
Nice
👌🏻
I wish I could play a new mode and map.
But I think the priority is much lower than other functions.
@organnerx can you send me a copy of an old version of the game?
I will make the launcher look for the addresses to be patched through byte signatures In the future I would like to make the latest client capable of loading old maps or create a tool to convert the map format from CSS to CSO2
@L-Leite thank you for noticing the game community. I have a couple of different versions. Currenly we are looking for the latest available version before the engine update. Right now I have February 2017 version while engine update was made in June 2017. I'll let you know in a few days about the search results.
It is a great idea to patch the latest client to load old maps or to make a tool for maps conversion in future. Believe me, players played the same maps for 999 times already and new maps will work like a breath of fresh air for the game.

I have tried to convert CSS map to CSO2, the map binary structure can be recognized by the engine but it always crashed after R_LoadWorldGeometry() inside R_LevelInit() in the engine. However, if I convert the map of CSO2 to CSS and back to CSO2 format, it has no problem despite some lighting break. Hope this information can help you.
@L-Leite Sadly we didn't find the version closest to engine update day. I uploaded the game version from 21 February 2017. I hope it is not missing any files. Link is active for 14 days: https://dropmefiles.com/OBYR5
Let us know about your results in this topic.
I pushed commit 1b30e74, you can get a build here.
The launcher will now try to find and patch the addresses dynamically, so you should be able to play with different client versions. I tested with Korea's v24406 client and the Chinese version from 21 february 2017 sent by organnerx.
@L-Leite thanks, I was able to run the game with the new launcher, but it does not load "custom" (-enablecustom) and "Data/cstrike" (-decryptedfiles) folders in 2017 version of the game. I cannot check if CSS maps can be played without working custom folder.
@organnerx can you test this build? build-rel.zip
I tested -lang not working @L-Leite
@Kawaii-Maou-Sama can you try this build? build-rel.zip
working .. successful @L-Leite
really good beautiful
I don't have any concepts probably it was in the game just no one remembers although if I say so the Organner gave me the old interface but it was different in a different way but there were bugs like opening cases and so on
Organner strange that will if maps insert in data and custom that will in old game try potestit and for 1 will make an important chip and will send in discord )
(Soryan for 2 that I wrote OK)
CLAN? Why is the server in the clan list? @L-Leite Rookie Server <
L-Leite Help me I have an error it requires 1 file so that it can run the game VCRUNTIME140.dll can you help me or tell me how to fix it (
you need the Visual Studio C++ Redist, you can get it at https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
Thanks
L-Leite Sorry but it didn't help I'd rather manually find the file myself
L-Lete how do I connect to my server if it doesn't work( although it is enabled
@ADVABonnie попробуй https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/
Thank you but I already downloaded the dll Manually
@L-Leite The game closes automatically in 2 or 3 minutes. I'm looking at the content in the store but suddenly it closes and it's the same in different places shuts down but does not write anything in the event log
@L-Leite sorry but you have problems that I found these are commands they don't work console doesn't work all commands don't work I want to run custom maps of course well you of course fix it please and it's just not convenient to play without those commands that don't work at all update the launcher version for the console just the console doesn't work
@L-Leite I donwloaded the latest version of the launcher. The custom folder works very nice, but the console commands doesn't work. I tried to put any command like cl_showfps
cl_righthand
mat_setvideomode
net_graph
etc etc and NONE works
and maps command not working
@ADVABonnie @Valen7789 @Kawaii-Maou-Sama try again with release 0.5.2
@L-Leite 1) If you have "launcher.exe -masterip 0.0.0.0" it will not work. If you add a random first argument "launcher.exe -qwe -masterip 0.0.0.0" it will work. Seems like first argument is broken. 2) Custom loading crashes the game if you have an innocent empty folder. For example if you have empty folder called "maps" inside "custom", the game will crash on loading. 3) Looks like the game isn't loading decrypted files or loading them from "Data/cstrike_cn/" instead of just "Data/cstrike/" like it was in launcher 0.2.2.
In the future I would like to make the latest client capable of loading old maps or create a tool to convert the map format from CSS to CSO2
@L-Leite I have tested 2017 version if it can load the CSS maps. It cannot do it too like a 2018 version. Engine on both game versions will stuck on 'Bsp Version' or on 'Funny lump size'. About your solution in the future: For various reasons covertion tool will be better than patching the game with the launcher. A message from JackyNKL should be useful in making convertion tool, and it is a really interesting fact that the map can be converted from cso2 to css and back:

We all hope that you will be able to understand the map reading procedure and to create a convertion tool for our lovely game in future ;)
@L-Leite @organnerx I hope these can be helpful for you . Here is a 20170510 version of chinese client, and 0.5.2 launcher works good 20170510 and I also have some other chinese clients: CSO2Installer_Ver0.1_20150318 CSO2Installer_Ver0.5_20150403 CSO2Installer_Ver1.2_20150506 CSO2Installer_Ver3.0_20150902 CSO2Installer_Ver4.4_20151216 CSO2Installer_Ver7.2_20160912 CSO2Installer_Ver8.7_20170222 CSO2Installer_Ver8.8_20170308 PassCode is hf41 As far as I know the engine update of the chinese client is at the 20170705 version, and have a 2.85GB patch for old version but I cant find a way to download it.
thanks for the clients
@L-Leite we understand your opinion but about the possibility that other versions of the game crashed on the new client and the old one did not but there are jambs in that version of the launcher
@L-Leite @organnerx я надеюсь, что это может быть полезно для вас . Вот версия 20170510 китайского клиента, и 0.5.2 launcher хорошо работает 20170510 а еще у меня есть несколько других китайских клиентов: CSO2Installer_Ver0.1_20150318 CSO2Installer_Ver0.5_20150403 CSO2Installer_Ver1.2_20150506 CSO2Installer_Ver3. 0_20150902 CSO2Installer_Ver4.4_20151216 CSO2Installer_Ver7.2_20160912 CSO2Installer_Ver8.7_20170222 CSO2Installer_Ver8. 8_20170308 Код доступа - hf41 Насколько я знаю, обновление двигателя китайского клиента находится в версии 20170705, и у меня есть патч 2.85 ГБ для старой версии, но я не могу найти способ загрузить его.
and you can re-upload all this to Google Drive
I will be able to test all versions of the game and find out where there is a full bypass for custom maps well, their inclusion shows with 0% loading

Do you have a game from 2015 2014 and so on just these 2016 builds
It could be nice to play a previous version of the game when engine was not updated yet. Can you change offsets in the launcher to make it launch the older version of the game? Pros: 1) Zombie Commander should work. 2) Players-made maps and maps from CSS should work. Also bigcity_pvp map should work. 3) Maps that were remade/added after engine updated should be easily converted to old engine (CSS engine) version.
Cons: 1) Latest gamemodes will not work. 2) Latest weapons will not work. 3) Shader of the old engine looks a bit outdated.
Summary: 1) We will loose some content but that will allow us to play custom maps if we want to, since there are no tools to convert CSS maps to the current CSO2 engine version. 2) Luís Leite, please consider making the launcher for an older version of the game, or create a tool to convert maps to current CSO2 engine. Players need it.
