Default CS Sprite List Created 7 years ago2016-09-19 22:49:52 UTC by MistaX88

I'm trying to find a list of all the default sprites that come with CS 1.6 (assuming there are any, perhaps they are only in Half-Life, I have no idea).

I've never used sprites before but I'd like to experiment a little with some default ones if they are available. But seeing as my cstrike folder is jammed full of custom content from my regular server and various other servers I have no idea what is what. I have no interest in accidentally plagiarizing someone's custom sprites or releasing a map with missing custom content in the download.

rename the sprites folder, verify

and dont be afraid to use stuff from other maps, sharing is the best

As long as you have permission from the original author, Bruce.

I don't have an issue with using other people's stuff if I'm just experimenting on my own but if I plan to release a map I wouldn't want to re-use that stuff unless I had permission from the creator or if the creator had released it under creative commons or similar.

I don't know why I didn't think of renaming/moving the folder and verifying. I always forget about that helpful little feature that Steam has.

then u probably cant use default sprites either because all cs maps were made by the community, lol

Those maps have become official and are part of the vanilla game that everybody purchases now, regardless of their former status. It's all content that everybody who has purchased the game already has on their hard drive. It's not new content that is being distributed without consent.

well 99% of cs players never purchased cs, so stop mapping and forget it forever!

@Bruce

Exactly. Over here in Bosnia and Herzegovina, absolutely nobody bought CS 1.6. Instead they found it on a site which has a free download for Counter-Strike 1.6.

And no, I'm not going to tell the name.

This isn't really the point, even people who have a pirated version of CS don't have the specific custom ressources installed on MistaX88's machine, so sticking with official ressources makes completely sense.
But for a game like CS 1.6 still available, cheap and running on modern machines, you're definitely not taking the moral high ground pirating it.

Some people simply won't care, but:

Some kids have the financial resources (a.k.a money) needed, but no payment method for things via the Internet. That's a big reason for people pirating games.

But I'm getting a debit card this year, so I'm about to abandon piracy once and for all, mostly because the pirated games don't have working multiplayer.
AND, I'll break the Steam account "barrier" by spending more than 5€.
