The update covers the following:

Steampowered.com wrote:COUNTER-STRIKE: CONDITION ZERO:

Added updated player models under CS

COUNTER-STRIKE:

Added crosshair customization (color, size, opacity)
Corpses fade out with cl_corpse_stay
Improved player turning right hitbox behavior
Improved brass ejection behavior
hud_draw 0 doesn't remove blackout
Scope blackout drawn in software mode
Flashlight sound no longer masks weapon firing sounds
Improved text behavior in top-right corner of observer mode
Round timer doesn't re-appear until the round restarts when the bomb is defused or explodes
Improved hitbox behavior

I wonder whether the 'improved hotbox behaviour' will bring it back to
somewhere near what it was in 1.5.

What's a hitbox?

A hitbox (or hitboxes) are used for collision detection, e.g. when someone fires at you the shot is tested to see if it lies within the hitboxes.

Ah. So what was wrong with the hitbox in 1.6? I've not noticed a difference.

Don't hold me to this but I think they increased the size of the hitbox that represents the head so people now moan that it is to easy to get a headshot.

There's that and the fact that in 1.6, there's a bug in the hitboxes which
means it possible, with a sniper rifle, to line up a shot that's directly in the
middle of their head and still miss. The bullet hole will even appear
directly behind their head. With any luck, this is the improvement.

Thanks for the info guys. I'll try the 'new' 1.6 out tonight.

Yeah - it didn't make sense because you'd replied while I was typing my reply in! So I edited it.

This also happens with pistols. Try standing right next to someone, placing the crosshair over their head and firing - from some angles, the bullet goes right through without hitting.

Mez is a stats whore... Shame the rest of us has to carry him in matches when stats are turned off

Says urb, who couldn't stop talking about how good he was when he was top of both DVF and CRO stats. When I was (very briefly) top of them both, I wasn't anywhere near as vocal about it as slagboy urb.

And urb, if I were you I'd go back and watch some of our match demos, you're the dead wood in the first half of most of our matches, you only ever kill stuff when you get an ak/colt....
