I recently formatted my computer and escape1 was the first server I visited and couldn't see any sprays (but I can see my own.) Turns out my windows firewall was on so I let cs:s unblock, visited some other servers and could see sprays again. But I still can't see sprays on any ZM or SG servers...and apparently some people can and some people can't. I can see template sprays like the bullseye or the "no war" one but not any of the custom pics. Was this changed recently or is there something wrong still with my machine?:confused1:

True it was a gravedig, but at least it's still relevant.

My sprays don't work either. I think they disabled it due to some exploits that could be done through them. Or maybe they got tired of shock-sprays.

Yes, that's exactly what it is. People found a way to abuse the fact that custom sprays are uploaded to the server so we had to shut it down.

thanks for giving an actual higher up response shadow, but do you have any further info on what type of sprays are allowed? I know ive seen my custom animated spray work on zombie hell, but im not sure about the other severs. not everyone sees it for sure though.

I used to order ts around alot using my custom sprays back in the day in pb. So I would like to know what custom sprays are most likely to be seen by everyone. ,If i use a standard spray ts can just spray over it and claim the new ones was mine.

We completely disabled the uploading, only to people that've already downloaded your spray (and on servers that have already had it uploaded) will it be visible.

wow, shitty news. sSo does this go for all sg servers then? Really sucks that a few assholes can ruin this for everyone. Hopefully valve will make a fix for that.

same problem with me. i can hear but no spray. i can see others spray.
i think they did the disable thing because a majority of CSS players were using porn sprays

sprays were disabled due to an exploit, not because of porn or offensive sprays.
