Completely & totally screwed here :( 2 different machines, both doing the same thing
General order of thing - hldsupdatetool crashes doing the update (no longer outputs to a cmd window- so difficult to see why) - Delete the ClientRegistry.blob file, run hldsupdatetool -command update -- Updates, but errors creating the blob file: C:\games\hl2ds>HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update Checking bootstrapper version ... Getting version 35 of Steam HLDS Update Tool Downloading. . . . . . . . . . C:\games\hl2ds>Checking bootstrapper version ... Updating Installation CMultiFieldBlob: Unable to grow blob Creates a 1.55kb blob file - Ctrl & C, then re-try the command comes back with: C:\games\hl2ds>HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update Checking bootstrapper version ... Updating Installation C:\games\hl2ds> - Check the games list works: C:\games\hl2ds>HldsUpdateTool.exe -command update -game list Checking bootstrapper version ... Updating Installation C:\games\hl2ds> It appears to be purely an issue with an invalid blob file being created, stopping it from actually running :( -----Original Message----- From: hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com [mailto:hlds-boun...@list.valvesoftware.com] On Behalf Of Shawn Somers Sent: 14 October 2009 23:10 To: Half-Life dedicated Win32 server mailing list Subject: Re: [hlds] Team Fortress 2 Update Available Chris wrote: > Just me, or is hldsupdatetool completely b0rked on windows? > Just you.
