Post by: Hippy on September 07, 2005, 12:44:43 PM
I just started my computer and went to play a bit of CZ. My server favorites came up and i joined a server no problem..i get on the server my names "player".. i have no buy script, RZE or Binds. AND my buttons are different!

ARG!!!

Why would this happen?

I would guess that either the config.cfg or the userconfig.cfg file in your czero folder has been deleted, didn't load, is corrupt or has been changed in some way.

I keep backups of mine and keep them write protected.

:withstupid:
We are talking about Steam who can mess things up with 1 update.
I also have backups of my spray and Nostromo settings just in case. Write protected is very important.

:blink:

I can play CS:S not CS or CZ...

I try to join a server and it says
"Steam has found a problem with your local game files. Game files will now be re-aquired for the steam servers"

but does nothing.

I cant even play offline as it says "wrong disk inserted"

 :huh:

You might have to delete the local game files for those games you cant play and then redownload them :(

Before you delete the BLOBfile, allways make a copy of it in another map of yours... :rolleyes:
It's probably Doris his hax....

Switch it on and add water.  Instant 'steam'.    :D

Ever used the 'backup game content' thingy?  Maybe backup from there, or copy the .gcf files from Doris's machine?

..and where, pray tell me, did we advise you to delete your blobfile young padawan? :)

It was game files we said to delete.

Oh the youth of today  :rolleyes:  why I remember back in the old days when...
