Source: Team Fortress 2 Update Released

Patch notes

Team Fortress 2

• Corrected the damage ramp for the Cow Mangler 5000 and the Soda Popper
• Fixed a rare crash bug with the Demoman TFBot laying stickybomb traps
• Fixed a bug that would cause team-painted wearable gibs to show an incorrect color
• Fix memory leak when updating the item schema
• Fix an occasional crash on game exit
• Replay updates
  • Client
    • Added basic/rough render queue for internal use to increase replay output for relaunch trailer
    • Block files are now deleted on replay reconstruction (i.e. viewing), to conserve disk space
    • Unneeded block files are now cleaned up automatically on startup
  • Server
    • Fixed fileserver cleanup
    • Any time replay_fileserver_offload_hostname is modified, the corresponding IP is resolved and cached, if possible. This fixes a crash, as well as failed publishing due to "unresolved hostname" errors.
    • Added a fileserver IP lookup test to replay publish test
    • Setting replay_enable to 0 now halts recording and does cleanup automatically, the way replay_stoprecord does. This fixes a crash that would occur when replay_enable was set to 0 and a changelevel was executed.
  • Replay temp directories automatically cleared on startup on both client and server
  • Memory management improvements
• Added ConVar demo_fov_override, which overrides the FOV during demo playback if the value is non-zero

Undocumented changes

• Added the Gamers With Jobs, ETF2L Highlander, and UGC Highlander tournament medals.
• Updated the matchmaking feature to give a bonus to Valve servers when new players search for games. This bonus gradually decreases as the player gains hours, and at around twenty hours of total playtime, the bonus no longer applies.
