Everything in Hell Client
Most of it lives in one place: the new Hell Client tab in Options.
Modern kill feed
Weapon icons and markers for headshot, wallbang, jump and no-scope kills. On servers that send extended death info, the markers are exact for every player.
HUD colour
Seven palettes for health, armour, money, ammo and the round timer: Classic, Ice blue, White, Red, Green, Purple and Blue.
Weapon position
Classic, Desktop, Couch or Minimal presets move the weapon model so it covers less of the screen.
Field of view and smooth zoom
FOV 90, 95, 100, 105 or 110. Scopes keep the normal zoom and mouse sensitivity. Optional smooth zoom for AWP, Scout, AUG and SG 552.
Loading screen
The map name, the server address, a clear progress bar and short gameplay tips instead of the old grey window.
Server password box
Options › Multiplayer has a field for your Admin or VIP password. The game remembers it.
Steam and Non-Steam
Play without Steam, or switch to your own Steam copy of CS 1.6 with one button. If Steam mode is not available, the game starts in Non-Steam mode.
Server browser that works
Find Servers › Internet is filled from our own master server, so the list is never empty.
Fast map downloads
Based on a newer engine build that supports fast HTTP downloads of maps and models from servers that offer it.
Automatic updates
Fixes and new features arrive when you start the game. Updates are digitally signed by us, so nobody can slip in a fake one.
Protected settings
Servers cannot quietly change your fps_max, rate, sensitivity or other personal settings.
Romanian translation
Menus and in-game texts translated into Romanian, written from scratch.

Know where you are joining
While the map loads you see its name, the server, how far along it is and a short tip. You can switch back to the original window in Options › Hell Client.
