Subject: Re: [hlds] Win32 hldsupdatetool updated
This got me thinking. And I believe I have figured it out. The steam
update tool doesn't like to be called from a remote directory IE. the CWD
must contain the steam update executable. I was using a batch file to call
the update tool and update the game folder, but the way I was calling it
was triggering a bug where it would ignore the orangebox folder.
got it all sorted out now, thx for the tip Robert
