They didn't change any cvar names. The old cvars are still there, but
they're read-only. That is because of the voting that was added in the
latest patch - the state of the cvars has to be consistent throughout
all the clients and if you could change it server-side it would no
longer be consistent.
To allow the admin to force a change, they added commands (not cvars)
that will force a change.
