We've just released a small Killing Floor update through Steam - everyone who owns the game will find it auto-updating to pick up the changes. If in doubt, just exit Steam and restart it. The issues we have picked up are:

Firstly, some general bits and pieces:
  • Fixed clients hanging during map change
  • Fixed an exploit found in the Perks system
  • Fixed a glitch and memory leak in the Audio system
  • Fixed an issue where downloaded files in the cache folder causing Perks to disable.
And secondly, some Mac-specific fixes:
  • Audio effects should be correct (footsteps should be audible, player's own gunshots should be louder, etc)
  • Fixed MP7 shoot sound not playing properly
  • Dedicated server working correctly
  • Motion blur, windowed mode and crossbow scope should now work on all ATI GPUs
  • No longer forces crossbow scope to "Textured" mode at startup
  • And some other minor fixes.

Made a post in bug reports about an issue with the specimen-specific mutations, although that might be a problem on my side.

Copied it below:
Just downloaded the new update and started a solo game to level my Support since it was just a few thousand away from the next level, selecting the bloat-only mutator, when I found all the regular specimens spawning. I did a quick test with the similar mutators and the same situation showed up.

I don't know why the problem came up, but I'm still able to reproduce it and assuming it isn't a problem on my side I'm sure a fix will be done before too long.

Just tried Poundamonium. Clots began to spawn during the First wave.

Appreciate the update, however perks seem to be disabled on all online servers now.

If you are running the AntiBlocking mutator be sure it is version 1.1. This update removes version 1.0 from the whitelist.

"Fixed an exploit found in the Perks system" - its about time that was fixed. now that we can actually talk about it openly here: i was very surprised that these console commands were so simple but overlooked for so long. when i joined a number of servers and found out there was perking with zero gravity, god mode, infinite ammo/money, i figured - whats the point of the whitelist? why am i waiting for my maps to be whitelisted while this isnt fixed? but now it finally is, thank you tw.

amen brother! ;)

best thing is that now certain people can't try to play hardball threatening to "let the cat out of the bag" about how to insta level perks :cool:

edit: i take that back, apparently they already posted how to insta level......a shame since it won't work anymore :p

Every Server I have tried, There is NO perk selection! Everyone needs to get the NEW 1.1 Anti-Blocker Mod! Then your perks will work fine!!!

Has the reloading glitch been fixed? Like when you tap reload, then you quickly switch weapons and when you switch back, your weapon either locks (can't shoot nor reload) or reloads, but no animation.

Every Server I have tried, There is NO perk selection! Its BROKE!! Fix this right away please!!!

Why should Tripwire Bother to look into something that's probably just wrong with your game? You did something wrong. Reinstall the game or something.

I found, because of this patch, that my perks keep showing up as level 0, and it won't let me look at the perk list to look. When I leave a game, the perks and achievements menu keeps saying 'An Unknown Steam error prevents access to this'. This even happens when I go into Solo Play. And if by some chance, I do get it to work by repeatedly closing Killing Floor and Steam, it goes right back to this when the map changes. This was working fine every day up until the patch, including the entire day I was playing with friends today up until we downloaded the patch.

Is there anyway to fix this?

Greetings, after seeing this news translate, players also will not steam update the game?, Besides what I understand is that the new update has many errors, it is said that you can not use perks in online servers , starting from level 0, but actually do not know if mine is to be non steam update, but tell me something if you do not know if it is true, it is true that the steam will not update the link should be at or automatically.:confused:

Well I say goodbye.

Bye.:cool:

these commands made a lot of kept members stop testing temporarily. glad to see them finally fixed. especially sooner then the next content update.
