After a year since the last major update, CSPromod Beta 1.05 will finally be released tomorrow (January 31, 2011). A lot of work has been put into this version (the main two changes are the port to the Orange Box engine and the implementation of our new custom player models) and we hope that you'll give it a try and perhaps even enjoy it ;)
Thanks to all the supporters after all this time! Here is the changelog.
