    Steam Reloaded

    Steam has updated the "HL Engine". I have disabled Cheating Death on the server pending a new UA release.

    In related news, I got a rather nasty Windows error when I tried to launch Steam after it updated. The problem was solved by deleting the ClientRegistry.blob file in my ProgramFiles/Steam folder and restarting Steam.

    It seems I spoke too soon, as I now cannot open any HL mods, as they are all "unavailable." Suddenly the argument that Steam is nothing more than a transport medium loses merit with me.

    Here's to hoping I find resolution soon.

    Re: Steam Reloaded

    I like the Matrix references, because I felt the same way during the update last night. I waited and waited for the update to finish, and when it was done I said "Huh?"

    Pretty much my same response after Matrix: Revolutions.

    (note: I read some Matrix explanations on the web that made me enjoy it more, but it's still about 30 minutes too long)

    Re: Steam Reloaded

    After a complete re-install of HL inside Steam, several deletes of clientregistry.blob, platform.gcf, and other files, and more than one complete system reboot, I seem to be up and running again.

    *mentos smile* THANKS, STEAM! *mentos smile*

    That's just ridiculous. I didn't have that problem after the update last night...I hope I don't in the near future! I may have to vote for Kerry before I reinstall HL inside Steam.
