Howto: Change your name in Day of Defeat or Counter-Strike Source


Due to a recent update (July, 2008), changing your name in games such as Counter-Strike Source and Day of Defeat Source by using the regular command
name "H4x0r31337^"
is no longer possible. To make it work again, do the following:
Download these two files
and put them in the folder
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\john@doe.org\day of defeat source\dod\addons
if you are running Day of Defeat Source or in
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\john@doe.org\counter strike source\cs\addons
if you are running Counter-Strike Source. Please note, that if the addons folder it is not allready there, you might have to create it.
Once you have done this, the command
name "H4x0r31337^"
should work once again:-)
