Tissue? Seem's like you are almost out to make steam crash/not work just so you have something to gripe about. Nobody cares.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dennis Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 2004 6:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds] Problems with steam client and HLDS I finally decided that resistance is futile, and I'm TRYING to convert to Steam. Just last night I converted my client box to Steam with very little trouble (so I thought). I played TFC for about an hour. In that time I only crashed once...very nice. Now suddenly tonight, when I double-click "Team Fortress Classic" in the games window, I get this: "Preparing to play Team Fortress Classic", then a popup window with this: "SteamStartup(0xf,0x62f9d8) failed with error 108: The local Steam Service is not running." It would be nice if someone, someday, came up with a USEFUL error message. Why the f*ck was the local Steam Service running LAST NIGHT, and it's just decided that it doesn't feel like running all of a sudden??? Also, after installing Steam on my server box (Windows NT), and running HLDSUpdateTool with the -create option, I get the following: "The procedure entry point GetLongPathNameA could not be located in the dynamic link library kernal32.dll" Well I had a feeling that Steam was an absolute piece of sh*t, and it certainly didn't disappoint me. Valve will die soon if they're banking on this crap. Pretty goddamn sad, nice job guys. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
