This is a problem with the Windows based GUI. If you enter the HL1 game, and then click "Find Servers", then you can connect to any of them. If you attempt via the GUI, you get the error.

Although I do run a hlDS this is not really a server question... almost. This morning when I attempted to enter a game on my server (from my game puter) Steam indicated that it was downloading updates... not too shocking yet... but after the update was done and I tried to enter the game, I got a message asking if I wanted to Download and install dedicated Server. If I say no, the Steam "Servers" screen redisplays but I can't enter any server. If I say yes, the Dedicated Server install downloads and thereafter, when I attempt to enter any server, I get the screen up to start a "dedicated server". Long story short, I can no longer join any server from my client. I performed the standard "delete the Clientregistry.blob stuff and stopped and started Steam several times, but the problem remains. As near as I can tell, my server is running fine but my game puter(client) can't join any servers. Basically, the function to join a server , no longer executes Half-Life but instead wants to either download dedicated server or start dedicated server. _______________________________________________ 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
