any way to play couter strike Condition zero on hamachi

ya me but u needed to host

[ashu888ashu888]

cool down man. I have nothing against you or your thread. I just want to cinfirm this:

1. I just clicked your link, and that file was offered for download(the firefox download box came up). This means that the link you posted was containing that hacked CS 1.6

2. You need to confirm if CS 1.6 is free or non free. Each person has a different opinion

3. I too run a Urban Terror(CS's arch rival) thread and I don't get angry at whiners.

4. A pre-patched version of CS 1.6 will be welcome. I am hunting the net for it, and will try to submit it here, but if you find it, please post it in the first post, instead of linking to a zillion patches.

I was all relaxed man, but if any how, I sounded harsh, my apologies.. :)

Btw, the links that are posted on the first page were not posted my myself, it was a recommendation from a forum member,

Please Note: If any of you thread users, find any link to be objectionable, feel free to PM me either to remove that particular link or give a link (if you wish too) to be replaced in that place..

As of now, (Afaik) CS1.6 Is NOT Free, if ppl claim it to be, its either d/loaded from a wrong source (i hope. ppl knw wat a wrong source is) or jus posted to increase curiosity..

I downloaded and installed zbot for my CS 1.6 v22 patch..
Now the problem is that i cant hear any radio sounds, even though i've checked its option on.
Moreover, the autobuy and rebuy functions do not work.. So, it becomes pretty messy to buy my weapons every round.
Does anyone else have this problem? How do i rectify it. Plz help..

Did you d/load the zbot from this thread?
If Yes, then it may be the case that the zbot version might not work on a newer/modified version of CS1.6 (ver. 22)

If No, then either you are patching (adding) zbots on a legal version of CS1.6
or that particular version of CS has no support for zbots.
================================================== =======
[u] Please Note: "Zbots" are not the legal bots for CS1.6 game, they were a part of CS-CZ and were just made to be compatible with CS1.6 because of their imporved A.I (Artificial Intelligence a.k.a Human like response and thinking in Computer controlled bots i.e players)

I hope i was clear in my replies.... :)

Create a network through Hamachi and then one becomes a server and others can join him.

[codename_romeo]

Hamachi is a website?????

[ray|raven]

Hamachi is a software.
It allows creation of virtual private networks.
Install hamachi, create a network and ask ur friends to join it(Your friends have to install hamachi also).
Then you can start a multiplayer game and ur friends join it.

Regards,
ray

Suggestion-
As people in this thread ask mostly about hamachi, Why don't you do a comprehensive Tutorial and post it on the first post of this thread?

[ashu888ashu888]

^^

Yup, its a good idea, but i will hv to take the help of u guys to add info abt hamachi and "how-to's", regarding Hosting a server and Joining a server..

PM me if any of u guys have anything to be added in the hamachi tut to be put on with ur name on the first page of this thread.. :)

I am thinking of searching the net and posting a full fledged [Tutorial]Setting Up a Hamachi Server In Linux and Windows thread in tutorials section, or as a sticky in gamers section. Any suggestions ? This will help every single gamer on this forum.

[MetalheadGautham]

there won't be much trouble if you have a mod merge this thread into the CS thread.

[ashu888ashu888]

^^

Well, as u wish :)

But if that tut is on this thread's 1st page, it wud be good as many ppl are asking the Hamachi How-to's regarding CS online.. :)

Hamachi is an independent topic, and as you know, its better to teach a kid about Operating Systems rather than Windows XP, because the former will enable him to use lots more things.

So I think its best if a dedicated sticky tutorial to the Hamachi Server, plus a paragraph each on popular games, will be fine.

[n00b0t]

ppl up for CS-CZ PM me

[abinesh]

any servers for cs cz over hamachi here ?
please post id and pw ... thanks !

this is more like cod:4.sadly these type of game need to run on low end systems too which I dont think is possible, judging by trailer.

i am thinking of getting original CS:Anthology. Is steam needed for this?
will it have the latest patch of CS?

[ashu888ashu888]

^^

Im doubtful for that (abt the latest patch i mean) AFAIK, Steam will be needed for u to play online...

[Ambar]

i am thinking of getting original CS:Anthology. Is steam needed for this?

ya in order to play online u need to have steam....but the best part is tht u have plenty of servers to play on :D

[Stalker]

the best part is tht u have plenty of servers to play on :D

will i get low pings? i have bsnl home-500 2mbps plan

[Ambar]

umm...ur pings wont be low ...coz the routing frm bsnls side is totally fu**** up (u may get low pings only when the local bandwidth usage is low) ...but if u can change ur isp and get a 128 k connection from sm isp like spectra,exatt,tata,airtel,MTNL...things will be fine.

[DigitalDude]

will i get low pings? i have bsnl home-500 2mbps plan
where r you from??

if you are in mumbai you will get low pings as many Indian CS servers are hosted in exatt, Mumbai... (fragshack, vstreet, IGL... all of em)

if you get an exatt connection you will have single digit pings :D

and yeah BSNL sucks though :p

I'm in chennai and get around 50ms ping with Airtel :D sometimes it will be low :p


_

[Stalker]

I'm from Goa.
Anyway, i had installed GG client.was getting a ping of ~ 60 ms from v-street

@ambar
128k connection is enough?

[Ambar]

ya more than enough..though u cant use lan rates on it...

@digitaldude how do u get 50ms frm airtel?? on my dads comp i get like 100ms on all servers even those IGL servers hosted in del :( ....but frm exatt in delhi i get a max ping of 20ms :)

[DigitalDude]

ya more than enough..though u cant use lan rates on it...

@digitaldude how do u get 50ms frm airtel?? on my dads comp i get like 100ms on all servers even those IGL servers hosted in del :( ....but frm exatt in delhi i get a max ping of 20ms :)
dunno I used to get around 50ms ping even when I had 128kbps unlimited from airtel... for the servers hosted in Mumbai...

I was even getting the same pings for singapore servers.. but then after a few weeks all singapore servers seemed to have a very high ping dunno why..

may be your dad's comp doesn't have good server rates...

btw a few people with exatt connection in mumbai play on the v-street servers and they have a LAN ping :D

u wernt able to connect...most probable because...the v-street servers are being overhauled rite now....but if u were also not able to connect to the igl servers then its most probably a prob from ur side...check ur internet conn( details bout ur connection would be help full)

also try putting these vakues in the console
:

Whenever I make a LAN server on CS1.6 no one else detects it. When others make I can detect it.

I've got the original Counterstrike Anthology
I couldnt figure out how to install maps for CZ (yes Condition Zero)
Can you please help me out?
The First post didnt sort out the process for installing CZ maps

[ashu888ashu888]

^^

well first of all make sure that the cz maps u are trying to install are compatible with cs1.6 (a.k.a CS anthology)

Extract the map (using any ZIP utility) in ur cstrike folder>maps and the map wich u hv extracted will hv a .bsp extension.

Locate a text file named as mapcycle.txt in the "cstrike" folder) and write the name of the map u hv jus extracted eg: de_aztec (without the .bsp extension) and only the map name. Save and close the text file and wen u start the CS game, u will see ur newly map in the map options.

[thewisecrab]

Thanx Man :)
Will do as you say

[boom2709]

i just started playing CS [1.6] and i wanted to know if you could play this games online, also whether my 384 Kb/ps line would be good enough for it ?

[bassam904]

Yes you can play counter strike 1.6 on you 384kbps connection easily. You just have to patch it up for more fun level. You can find some in gamerz section under half life and counter strike thread

[The_Devil_Himself]

FYI original cs.16 hardy costs about 300 rupees and you can play on steam server with other players after purchasing,totally worth it IMO.

Some Pranksters Change other player's name when playing on the LAN. They change the name of the player playing from the server. How do they do that and how to prevent it.

Also how to disable cheats on the LAN. Would sv_cheats 0 work?

[Ambar]

u can change the name of the person who has started the server by typing the command :

cmd name "wht ever u want"

if u want to prevent this from happening then type :

alias "your name "
or
alias name "your name"

[n00b0t]

a question
is there a diff between cs 1.6 and cscz?
and how do i play cs over lan/hamachi
open console and /connect <lan-ip> ?

[ashu888ashu888]

yes buddy there is a difference b/w CS1.6 and CS-CZ... cs1.6 is the older version of counter strike (but not the oldest version)... and CS-CZ Counter strike Condition zero is a new and improved version.. :)

its the cs1.6 version tat is easily tweakable and modders favourite all around the world and they release their custom maps and improved AI for the same ....

[KoRn]

@hullap

well there is some difference between cs 1.6 and cz...to tell u the truth its much easier to get frags in cz...why???
1.more agile and flexible gameplay
2.no scope delays in magging....gr8!

cz has fewer bugs as compared to 1.6 but if u wanna own in cs cz play 1.6 and watch the difference after perfecting 1.6.all the best dude :P

I want to block the scripts people run on my server to improve aiming and disable cheats.
I feel that sv_cheats 0 is not enough. Can anyone suggest a good counter measure.

How do I make new weapon models work on the lan servers. I have tham others don't. If I try to join server it gives the error tht server enforces the consistency of models and disconnects me????

[Cool Joe]

This is the method to uninstall CZ: Deleted Scenes. You can keep CS:CZ but remove only Deleted Scenes to save space.
In the game installation directory, there's a folder named "czeror". This is the folder containing the files required to play DS. Just delete it. That's all. By itself, CZ takes less than a GB of space but DS takes a lot of space.

[ashu888ashu888]

^^

yaa, i guess coz CSCZDS is a single player mission hence it takes a lot of space as compared to CSCZ.. :)

u can try downloading the AMX mod ...for thye models and stuff ..as for disabling hacks and stuff ....use sXe client or ..cheating death ..

yup, rite solution dude.. AMX mod is specifically created for server gaming.. : )

Whenevever I minimize Counter Strike CZ or 1.6 any, and restore it..........the video disappears and I have to tereminate it using Ctrl+Alt+Del. Tried to play at lower resolutions but no help.
I have a 8600 GT and 19' TFT Intex, also the shadowed areas in the game appear too dark to see any camper there. But others can see me if I hide there.Tried to adjust the brightness setiings but it doesnt help. Will try the gamma correction.


I usually do the commanding job in the match. so whrer can I find tips to find new strategies??

http://www.gotfrag.com

best site fot any gaming related stuff....visit the cs section for more info....

the video prob may be due to older drivers .... tried the latest ones??

also open ur console in game nd type ..:

gamma 3

and brightness 99

this should help ...

[anshul]

yes I have the latest drivers
also when i try to change the game video setting it crashes.

[Ambar]

hmmm...then it might be tht the video mode is set to ether DirectX or Software...try changing it to OpenGL ...if it still dosent help..do a clean install..delete the CS folder completely and then reinstall...

[XBL]

Or try using window mode using shortcut tweak or 3D analyser

Hey i just started playing Half Life 2. The Sub Machine gun there is confusing. I mean its ammo gets over real soon. Its like, at one stage it shows my ammo to be 43 17 and then once that 43 gets over it says 17 0. But in the pistol when it says 18 150 when the 18 gets over it goes to 18 132 or something.....can someone explain

Are you dumb or a very silly noob(no insult meant) but that' is simple maths. In 43 17 '43' is the no of bullets in the magazine and the '17' is the extra bullets you have. So when 43 gets over it is obvious that it will show 17 0. Similarly in the case of pistol.

k thanx.. :) btw, never played HL, apart from CS, so with wich episode shud i start with ?? 1,2 ???

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Half Life 1->Half-Life 2(best game ever made)->HL2 EP1->HL2 EP2
Rather buy the Orange box after finishing HL1 as you will get HL2+both episodes+Portal(awesome game)+TF2(Best MP of the year so far) for just 999 as well as lot of free HL2 mods.

[ashu888ashu888]

^^ ooh i see, so the orange box is like sum sort of a combo or a multi pack... gr8 sounds interesting also the price is good.. :)

[baccilus]

^^^ Those free Half life mod are awesome. I am currently addicted to Insurgency. You have to play it to believe it. Portal is fun too. BTW, you can get the entire Orange box for Rs 750/- It has 5 official valve games and Five ( or 4?) official steam integrated mods. Check this out. (http://www.techenclave.com/dealer-s-paradise/go-pc-games-104316.html)

[ashu888ashu888]

^^
Thats good,thanx to u and Arsenal too,

btw does the official pack (not the downloaded version) of ORange box allow me to install mods on it ??

[baccilus]

Yes. Infact it's absolutely easy. When you install the orange box, All the steam supported mods will be under the heading " Not installed" in the "Games" window of steam. Just right click ->> Install. as simple as that. Even if you have to install non steam supported ones, just install like a normal game and restart steam. Most of the mods are stand alone games just requiring source sdk. They won't effect your original games.

[NIGHTMARE]

in order to launch the games u need to be connected to the steam network ..unless ull have to save ur account details on ur comp in order to run it in offline mode...

@NIGHTMARE then ull have to do it the other way around...create a non steam server disable VAC and then let steam players connect to it...

To play the single player games you just have to be connected to internet for the first time. From then on steam will run in offline mode without any problem. In fact I use to play like this only. So you wont have to be online for playing HL2, Episode 1,2 or portal. Even for the first time it goes online because it takes some installation files from the steam servers.

[NoasArcAngel]

bro both the videos were made after recording frags and POV's on CS1.6 running through steam .... tho sm of the frags in Amitoj's aka Nemesis's video might be from non steam .... but it hardly matter the game is the same .... only the difference is Legal or illegal / Pirated original .... the CS 1.5 days are long over but yes if u do have a genuine copy of the original CS mod for HL it will also work ....
and yes Anhilation 2 is by far the best CS frag vid ever made.... here comes the goood part each and everyplayer in the video was using steam client :D
if u got further doubts call me up :)

also as u mentioned on the phone earlier about the recoil thing.. its just ur own skill on how well u can control it....
Hope this helps

[ashu888ashu888]

hey.. ashu how bout starting a sticky on CSS and TF2??

well nice idea bro, i can handle the CSS part (along wiht u) and tf2 will hv to be controlled entirely by u.. :)
------

but the thing is., this thread is already a sticky for CS (all CS titles adn versions) and also for HL (and all of its versions and titles)..

so wat we (u and me) can do is, u can tell me the content to post for CSS and tf2 and i'll myself will post CSS content and will update the 1st page..wat u say abt this ??

(coz already this is a sticky on CS and HL) and so i dnt think mods will make a new thread (for CSS and tf2) a sticky... so we will hv to add content in here only.. (i may be wrong)

awating replies...:)

bro the fps is stuck at 60 because of V-sync.... sisnce intel accelerator drivers dont have any option to turn off v-sync ull have to add a freqency command in the launch parameters...

for steam :

right click on game > properties > Set Launch Options > here ad this : -freq x (where x is the maximum frequency supported by ur monitor at ur desired resolution)

for non-steam :

right click on short cut > properties > add this at the end of the target path : -freq x (where x is same frequency as above)

now as for ur second question there is a way to increase the fps beyond 100 ... but after u do tht the game actually goes into smthing like bullet time mode...

add this in the launch options or after the target path : -developer
now in game open the console and type : fps_max y ( y is the desired max fps )

believe me ull hate it...

also as for the frame dropping problem ... minimize the game > open task manager > goto processes tab > right click on hl.exe > set priority to Real time or Highest ....
( this tip is seriously not advised and shld be used inly as a last resort)

Hope This Helps!

[anshul]

We tried this...........
the game closes after doing that "target" method. I played on 140 fps and it was not so bad........mothing like bullete mode......also develpoer command at "target" crashes my game too.....doing it at the console helps.......

We also tried the last task manager method ............the game hanged ...........had to restart......and now the explorer does not open..........
My friend is grabbing my neck at present for having done such a thing to his PC.

[Ambar]

bro then all the probs are definately being caused by using ripped version of CS1.6 .... try steam one and let me noe,,,

[anshul]

I dont know whether it is ripped it or not as I have the setup of CS-condition Zero +CS 1.6 build 2738 with patch 19 installed............
I don't have a steam version.

[Ambar]

i have no idea regarding the combined illegal version ... but everywhere i have tried the developer mode be it steam or non-steam ... i never caused any probs or lockdowns... there is something wrong with the windows installation i guess or may be a malware or smthing...

[anshul]

I made a spray. Installed it on my PC . Works fine. Installed it on my home PC....works fine....installed it on my friends PC does not work....installed it on many Vista PC...does not work........
here's the method.....
make wad file from wally
name it as pldecal.wad
delete tempdecal.wad and custom.hpk from cstrike folder
make its copy in the cstrike folder alongwith it.(the file will rename as copy of pldecal.wad)
rename the copy as tempdecal.wad
create a bmp image of same dimensions in the valve/valve/logos folder and named it the name of the spray.

start the game and enjoy it....

I can enjoy but my friends cant......

tried developer 1 and allow_upload methods.........
In vista custom.hpk is not generated again.....in XP it regenerates but still my friend cant spray his own masterpiece.


Any help/suggestions????

i have no idea regarding the combined illegal version ... but everywhere i have tried the developer mode be it steam or non-steam ... i never caused any probs or lockdowns... there is something wrong with the windows installation i guess or may be a malware or smthing...

the windows installation is fine............
also when we tried the target method........CS 1.6 did not start....half life started
and we had to start CS 1.6 from there on.

[Ambar]

then most prolly smthing went wrong when adding the target...

[!@@#@#$#%$$%^@#@#@$#$#!@#@#@#!!] { u suck simply} !!!!!!!!!

[Ambar]

@noas u shld have gone for the DA instead for around 3200 bucks... much better ...though it lacks the uber kewl featurs of the copperhead.. its grip and comfort feel are legendary....

or if u can spend around 4k+ then i have smthing even better ... the Steel Series Ikari Optical ... this mouse even beats the Deathadder.

Copperhead has a very stupid grip and feel... but its good if u feel it suits u well.

[ashu888ashu888]

@ korn

all the best for ur clan huntin .. :) i will not be able to join in at this moment coz i myself am occupied with sum programming and s/w courses.. but yes, will keep in touch with u.. :D

yup, me completed my so called "study thingee" (my i.t engineering in June,08..phew !! tat took sum serious doing.. :D )
----------------------

@ ambar.

buddy, im not,into gaming mouse, but yes wud love to see sum pics of those gaming mouse..:) so plz post sum.. also, are these gaming mouses dedicated to CS play or all mouse handled games like Quake, Doom, FEAR..etc...
----------------------


Cheers n e-peace...

[Ambar]

are nahi re ashu ... gaming mouse are used just to overcome the limitations of normal mouse.. and give u much better control over the movements and the game... but tht only if u use a gud mouse pad with it.....will post pics of MX-518,Deathadder ,Intelli 3.0 by tmrw evening.. :) ... as u may have observed normal mice tend to skip when moved very fast...

[NoasArcAngel]

dude ambar i was getting the da for 2500 :D :evil: hehehehehhehehe...


i like the copperhead because of

0.ultra effective tracking avago cl-1 laser engine tracker... best in class..:evil:
1. sexy uber cool loooks not tht imp..:rolleyes:
2. quite high dpi i.e. 2000 :evil: [umm.. nt that high also]
3. its razer synapse profile...... ;)
and um.... its really amazing ambidextrous design...:D wht ever ppl say about holding the mouse in diff ways.. :evil: i hold the copperhead in a palm grip... :cool:
and it REALLY OWNS!! :shock:

and dude abt the stell series akari optical mouse is DAMN EXPENSIVE AND ACCORDING TO DIGIT IT JUST TRACKS A LITTLE BETTER THAN mx - 518 so.. its pointless to pay that much for a puny mouse:evil::evil: i.e. the high cost is not justified...

ill post images of ma ch today maybe...:evil: camera spolit....

[Ambar]

oh didnt noe the DA has become soo cheap ... neways id also go to the extent of saying the digit review of Ikari was total %#$^ .... man i was shocked to read it,,, top gamers and gaming websites are all going bonkers bout this mouse not only around the world but in india too .... who the hell reviewed it?? ... i have one thing to say gaming hardware can only be reviewed by hardcore gaming people like that of skoar! ... not the testcenter guys ... as for the ikari being a little better then they are wayyy wrong theres a huge diffference between both.... i have all of em Ikari,DA,MX,3.0 ...

id say the following:

MX only if ur on a budget
...
u want smthing killer get the DA (the IR sensor is wayy too accurate)

if u can go beyond the 4k mark nothing beats the Ikari .... as always the all laser sensors are total crap ... IR sensor >Optical Sensor> Laser Sensor

this is the reason why the ikari laser has failed .... and the optical one is flying off the shelves ....

[ashu888ashu888]

^^ hey nice topic discussing this man,, im loving this hearing abt the various names (they all hv killer names as if they were like silent assassins ..lol..)

thanx for posting these abt gaming mouse..ambar and noa.. :)

btw, wich gaming mouse are u using !! coz i'll take wat u hv already played coz im a noob in this..
--------

[Ambar]

i basically use the MX 518 @ home for normal work and the deathadder for gaming on lan and at home.. i basically dont use the CH (i hate it) , 3.0- its a limited edition and is not longer available and the 1.1 - again a limited edition.

[NIGHTMARE]

why DA is better than CH in DA every specification is good

[Ambar]

bro the biggest advantage is the IR 3G sensor.... and the ergonomic grip.. rubber coating, etc....biggest drawback is no on the fly dpi switch without drivers .... but it is easily compensated by using the windows mouse settings....and the ch lacks majorly in the ergonomics and grip department.. but that is also ones own choice and opinion....

[NIGHTMARE]

wat is the price both of them

[Ambar]

well as NOAS already stated ... he bought the CH for 2900 and later stated that he was getting the DA for 2500 .... from SMC international NP

[NIGHTMARE]

actually i am in mood to purchase CH but ur thoughts bounds me in confusion

[Ambar]

try both of em... go to zapak malviya nagar.... ull find plenty of ppl using the DA over there.... u can try theres out... if u dont like it go for the ch.... one more important thing if ur buying a gaming mouse then u have to get a good mouse pad also ...else its a total waste... the best ones out there are :

Qck Heavy
Qck (the normal size)
Qck mini (for budget ppl ultra small)

.... Everglide Titan Monstermat : Fnatic edition or the DKT edition (surface is same only coulour and printing is different)
Razer Goliathus Speed and Control both available in 3 sizes Large Small medium.
and Razer Mantis Speed and Control

Ma personal favourites:

Qck heavy ,Everglide Titan Monstermat, Razer mantis Control and Goliathus Speed Medium ... in the mentioned order

[NoasArcAngel]

hey dude @ ambar srry fr troubling you about that cs 1.6 panga....:D:D:Dbut now i have understood ;) and 1 more thingyy is a everglide titan monster mat gud with a copperhead??? and i was wondering wether u have some branded apparel of steelseries or razer..... and abt that ikari optical mouse... dude its this way.. because a laser engine is much more precise.... although i agree with you after reading many reviews abt the ikari that it is the perfect mouse for a person with large palms!!!

Tracking wise order:
laser sensor 1
infrared 2
optical 3

bt also depends if you are a lsg or hsg.... im msg:D :devil:

ya tracking is the best laser sensors... but that is also the biggest problem with them....but most lreviews have also stated that IR sensors are better than laser ones beacuse of almost zero stray reflectance......

[baccilus]

How much does the CS: Source cost if I buy it from a shop? Is there any Diwali discount nowadays? Is there any combo pack available with CS: source like the CS anthology pack having CS 1.6?

[Ambar]

umm the CSS pack is available is available for 500 bucks in music stores... donno of any discounts

[baccilus]

What does the CSS pack include besides CSS?

?

[Ambar]

DOD source and HL2 deathmatch..

[baccilus]

Ok thanks.

[toofan]

[toofan]

Which one to buy there were many packages. Which would be latest and will not cost me much.?

[NIGHTMARE]

is there any Indian online site

[Ambar]

site for what?

[NIGHTMARE]

^^ CS 1.6 and razer DA

[Ambar]

buygamingstuff.com or buy it from SMC ...

[ashu888ashu888]

@ NIGHTMARE

for Razor DA, i think AMbar has them(see the link in his siggy) , am i right ambar >?? or u hv only the steelseries one ??

[NIGHTMARE]

i m going to buy DA and steel series is expensive lit bit from predatorvj

[Ambar]

well i have only the steelseries stuff ... and the Ikari from me is for Rs.3359 (but is out of stock right now)

DA from SMC will cost you around Rs3100 or 3050

... it makes sense to wait for the ikari optical to come back in stock ... since in my and many other ppl's opinion it has better ergonomics...and a superb sensor.

[NIGHTMARE]

ok i will buy steel series let check who quote me good price u or predatorvj

[NIGHTMARE]

wat about the warranty of ikari optical and i heard the new stock of Steel series mouse which distributed in india there is defect on it and giving problem all of them

[Ambar]

bro as i have already replied on the other forum....

The first batch of Ikari had problems in the tracking algorithm ... and the whole batch from all over the world was recalled ... but the new one which is out for quite some time now dosnt have any problems ....it is yet to arrive here and we are not the selling the older batch anymore....

[NIGHTMARE]

ok when the new stock come plz inform me its coming next month or this month

[Ambar]

next months most prolly...
