Extending limits of the GoldSrc Engine

The Issue

Extending the Precache Limits would make many people happy.

People who create maps for Counter-Strike could make bigger maps and add more details to them which increases gameplay heavily.

The Coders and Modders would have more space for creating Mods and add more custom stuff.

Server Administrators would experience less Server Crashes and all players would see an improvment of their gameplay experience.

Relevant limits and value would be :

  • MAX_MODELS 1024 (default: 512)
  • MAX_SOUNDS 1024 (default: 512)
  • MAX_BEAMS 256 (default: 64)
  • MAX_TEMPENTS 1024 (default 500)
  • MAX_MAP_MODELS 512 (default: 256)
  • MAX_MAP_LEAFS 16384 (default: 8192)

I think it's fair values. Of course higher values are welcomed (like Sing) but as it is it would be already really useful and awesome.
