Counter-Strike: Source Beta

[zackin5]

Someone seems to have found a way for people not in the beta to be able to play it.

If you want the beta, but don't have it, these are the steps to get it.

Steps:

1. steam://validate/260 - and wait for Steam to fully download the GCF.

2. Use GCF Scape to extract the cstrike_beta folder to the SourceMods folder (located in the SteamApps folder)

3. In the cstrike_beta folder, open GameInfo.txt

Replace:
Code:

SteamAppId                260

with
Code:

SteamAppId                440

You must have TF2.

4. Rename steam.inf to steam_.inf

5. Restart Steam

6. Right click the new game in your Steam menu, click properties, Set Launch Options, add in advanced secuirty options:
Code:

-insecure -secure

7. Enjoy

Steps are similar for setting up a server. Just edit the gameinfo.txt file in the dedicated server.

Achievements work, but are not uploaded to the Steam Cloud - stats are also recorded, but not uploaded.

You can only play on servers that are setup like this. I'm sure there will be some setup.

If they were to change that, would they not just make a new CS instead?
