Added Multicore Rendering

– This initial release is aimed at testing compatibility, so the option is OFF by default

– To turn it on, go to the Options->Video->Advanced dialog, and check the “Multicore Rendering” option

Other Changes

– Several performance improvements to decals and client bone/flex setup

– A variety of alt-tab and mode switch fixes

– Improvements to the way the engine initializes surround sound, fixing some specific hardware cases

– Fixed a crash on exit in Vista 64

as far as i’ve checked the multicore stuff is all the old benefits mqm2 + related commands used to give me only now it doesn’t crash anymore in servers with 18++ players (this was the limit for my pc doesn’t mean it was that for all systems)

another great update by valve anyway :)

I also used to get crashes very quickly if I entered a server with around 20 people or more.
Now I tested the Saigns overcrowded 32 people bot server and played for 20 minutes and it didn’t krash.
Thank you Valve !

“This initial release is aimed at testing compatibility, so the option is OFF by default”

Shows that this may not work for everyone, but that they are still working on it.
