Re: [hlds] Team Fortress 2 update oddness
I for one just want to thank Mike and the rest of valve for busting hump and doing all they can to get this out to us.. and then listen to all the bitching from a bunch of people because it didnt meet their schedule. Mike has gone out of his way to patiently answer a lot of questions here that does nothing more then keeps him away from the efforts of getting the binaries ready. Personally I think he should be gettings kudos for doing a great job. Ray At 09:13 PM 9/17/2007, Greg Williams wrote: Sorry to hear that. Yeah it is really piss poor that valve does this.

Re: [hlds] Team Fortress 2 update oddness
I know this isnt a list for bitching and of any sort but i think we have the right to be carefull as to are next purchase, considering "CounterStrike - Hl2DM & TDM" were nothing but headaches with the periodic updates which did nothing but cripple the games and server's to the point that would render them not as much fun or playable for the matter.(Especially killing all admins with the famous "allowservercommands 1" I mean come on I think alot of you agree with me right?? And money isnt an issue i just don't want my next purchase to be another dissappointment..you know? But this is my $0.02 :) - Original Message - From: "Brandon R.

I ran the hldsupdatetool once when the files were first available. I just ran it again and cannot duplicate this error either. It verified the files.
