v4.1.1.0/3.1.1.0
----------------
[6.12.02]

Changes/Additions:
------------------
Ricochet included in this release. Added logging of the anti-cheat system catching and kicking detected cheats. Added logging of "kick" commands. Added logging of "banid" commands. Changed error message if clients try to download missing resources to be more helpful. Added new debug message for mod makers if a packet couldn't be parsed correctly. Changed 'exec' command now only works on .cfg and .rc files. Changed 'exec' command no longer allows ".." or "" or ":" in the filename. Linux: hlds_run now does auto-restart by default (to disable: define "-norestart" on the command line) Linux: hlds_run uses "exec" when you define the "-norestart" option. Linux: Added -pingboost command line parameter. Currently supports three different methods ('-pingboost 1', '-pingboost 2', and 'pingboost 3'). These may not work well (or at all) on some OS environments. Linux: Added "-debug" flag to hlds_run to automatically run gdb and pull out useful info.

New CVARS:
----------
Added "serverversion", can be set to '1108' to view/re-record old demos. Added "sv_logbans" to turn the logging of player bans on and off. Default is 0 (off).

Bug Fixes:

Fixed 'bad address type' fatal error on servers that attempt to run in secure mode but have no DNS resolution. Fixed DropClient messages for Steam clients who were banned or have a duplicate Steam ID to properly show the SteamID of the client. Fixed HLTV reporting wrong spectator numbers if connection to server was pending. Fixed "multicast 1" not working if it was issued before HLTV connected to game server. Fixed relay proxies reporting wrong spectator/slots numbers in multiplayer/LAN menu. Fixed DMC powerup bug where the invisibility ring would make people glow red. Fixed rcon bug in HLTV. Fixed delay being reset to default value during changelevel. Fixed a problem with propagating HLTV banners. Fixed bug using "exec " on large files (e.g. banned.cfg).
