Source: Team Fortress 2, Day of Defeat: Source and Half-Life 2: Deathmatch Updates Released

Patch notes

Patch 1

Source Engine Changes (TF2, DoD:S, HL2:DM)

• Added sv_namechange_cooldown_seconds, to throttle clients from changing their name too rapidly. (Defaults to 20 seconds)
• Added sv_netspike_on_reliable_snapshot_overflow to selectively enable the automatic dumping of netspike file if a client drops due to "reliable snapshot overflow" (defaults to 0, which disables the debugging)
• Added check to prevent player names from containing color codes
• setinfo console command will now reject attempts to set / change convars with any unusual characters

• Fixed not being able to equip all-class items properly
• Fixed the DX8 water effect
• Fixed the Beggar's Bazooka misfiring with 100% crits after firing a crit rocket
