I like to take a lot of screenshots from the killcams/freezecams. For a long time now they had been ruined by HUD type items such as "You have been killed by...", and the HUD display for what weapon they were carrying. I had sent in a request to the Team Fortress 2 team for an option to disable all HUD items when taking screenshots. Today I had gotten an email stating this very feature had been implemented!

So far anyone who does not want HUD displayed in their screeshots, just put this in your console/autoexec.cfg:
hud_freezecamhide 1

In my opinion this is a very good feature, I will now be using many of my screenshots as wallpapers.

Who was it that was offering to compare what files were changing between updates? Can someone find out what it is that is causing some of us to download 900mb -> 3.5gb. :\

If they change a map even slightly, then you have to redownload the entire map again.
That and a bunch of other engine code - but I think you're exaggerating the file size a bit.

Unless we're talking major updates, in which case it would be expected.

They seem a little high for me too, but I'll need to code something a little different up if the goal is calculating the total byte-age altered or added.

Although the bots taking info from voice commands was something that dissipointed me for not being in L4D2, I can't see it working in TF2 if there are several players players on the server. That is to say:

1. Go spy
2. Go near bot medics
3. Press E to makee them heal you
4. "Activate the charge, doctor"
5. ???
6. Überspy profit.
7. Get banned
