What it means for players and servers

The update adds convenience to Cologne 2026 sticker management - they can now be bookmarked directly in the shop. For spectators, flashbang visibility has been improved: a new r_spectator_flashbang_opacity convar allows opacity control, and the effect now renders below the HUD to avoid obscuring on-screen information. General stability improvements are also included.

Server administrators can use the new convar to customize flashbang appearance for third-person spectating, which may be useful for broadcasts and in-server demonstrations. This change doesn't require plugin reinstallation and works at the client level.

Ancient has received geometry clipping updates to prevent certain boost positions - check your usual lines and spots for changes. Sanctum has been updated to the latest Steam Workshop version, which may bring minor adjustments to geometry or textures.
