For Steams stuck on newer version and cant play on revival or escape (SOLUTION)


Recommended Posts

For the steams who cant either play on revival or escape, I found this solution, downgrade the game to the previous build and wait until the server upgrade is completed. Heres the solution, not credited to me:

How to downgrade

Found this on the valve forums and works for me:

How to downgrade successfully. Everything is done via the “Properties” menu. Right click css on steam and click “Properties.

  1. Go to “Betas” and select previous previous_build. Wait until downloaded in steam...

  2. Go to “Installed Files” and click “Browse”. Rename hl2.exe to cstrike_win64.exe

  3. Go to “General” and in “Launch options” enter: -game cstrike

Just step 1 worked for me, when you finish downloading the previous build select it and apply, otherwise youre still stuck on the newest version. Hope this works for the people on the same situation, wish I had found this sooner. CheerZ ^^

I'd like to add an alternative:

For players without Steam accounts, you can download the game via 7Launcher or any other application that supports the game & be able able to play on the server while it still runs on the previous version. I'd like to add that there's no ETA as to when ZR will be compatible with the latest version, as a large number of players play from no-Steam, so the updates form 7Launcher & other apps that support the game will be at the discretion of their respective devs (which is beyond the control of the NiDE devs team).

I would like to add a small note regarding this solution. : 

so guys after you do all these steps, Then when you run the game some people might encounter the error message like in this pic here 👇 :

, because this is exactly what happened to me when I applied all the steps correctly, but don't worry, the solution is very simple for this. all you have to do is delete the " cstrike_win64.exe " and then Open your game and Choose ( Play Previous Build Branch ) and Play : image.png.b7ccf8c9f0dde387403e1789a646638f.png
That's it, that's what I did and it worked for me, so I hope it works for you guys too,

🔴⚠️(Note: This step is only for people who received the error message. If you didn't receive any error message, then you don't need to do this step at all.)⚠️🔴

gg and CheerS!🍻🕷️

    • Denied. You barely just started playing on the server and you are already applying for admin. You have not interacted with the community much, and the limited interactions we've had with you were rather unpleasant.
    • Required: Ingame Nickname: hamid Discord username: Seriosreborn Age: 21 SteamID: No steam What server are you applying for (ZR or ZE server?): ZE  Optional: (Feel free to answer one or more questions) Why are you interested in applying for admin? Because this server has no admins active. Even if they are, they are just AFK and most of the time they are trolling muting others they do not like. They show favoritism. What time zone are you active in (NA or EU hours)? NA.  How long have you been playing on the server which you applied for? 1 week. How experienced are you in the gamemode for which you applied? I have 5 years experience with ZE. I remember playing ZE when i was like 12 in V34.  Do you have any past admin experience? Yes, I used to be admin for Escape-Cro few years ago when the server was active. It was the most active server out of all versions of counter strike. i was admin there for 1 year straight until i decided to quit the game. I am pretty sure everyone knows about Escape-Cro.  Do you have any other skills like (Mapping, Plugins, Drawing, Video editing etc). No.
