    That would help explain your attempts to minimise the performance impact of the new GUI :headshot:

    I've done some fixes that people've reported to me, we should be golden for tomorrow now.

    Candles, Haschtewas and I were on 2013 last night.

    It seemed a bit slow - is it on a decent server ?

    Also once we finished and changed maps my client crashed. Haschtewas was still on the map. Two more attempts failed. So how do we mine logs to help debug issues ? I didn't see any logs on my machine that might help you debug this issue.

    Scrolling in spec through the map is slower than 2007. Is there a setting to increase this speed?

    Is there a preferred location or mechanism for reporting issues ?

    What's the full path to your gameinfo.txt in your SVN install and the full path to the hl2.exe file in your Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer folder?

    Only idea I can give is to make sure your SVN is full updated with no conflicts in the bin folder and that the -game switch in the Source 2013 launch options goes directly to the folder that you have the SVN install in. If both those things are fine, then you might want to wait for someone else to verify that the SVN works; there has been a few issues with it over the past few days.

    There are conflicts however each time I hit update it says its already done. "Resolve" doesn't do shit and "clean up" sits there eating the shit out of my hd for ever and then doesn't do shit.

    rev 1574

    If it helps, I can update to 1574 and it plays great.

    I think "revert" just says fuck-all to any extra/edited files and matches the folder to what the SVN has.

    WHY WOULDN'T UPDATE DO THAT!? Seriously. I took a copy of current empires threw it in there so I didn't have to download 4gigs and let it update that.

    Because what if you want to update to the latest changes but don't want to lose any progress you've made. If updating also did a revert, then you'd have to manually sort through your files and make sure to not run update on anything you've changed.

    If you want to update and revert though, I believe "Update to Revision" will do that.

    " I'd recommend to everyone to NOT run the SVN or install the beta branch until I give the go ahead. It's been massively inflated due to testing distribution and we're most likely not going to be using SVN anymore for testing."
