Hey guys, I haven't played Goldeneye Source since 1.1, and today I decided to play it again so I updated it to 3.1. As soon as I launched the game, the valve logo loads, and then the goldeneye source menu attempts to load, and then it I get this...



(Here is the direct link to the image if the forum seems to be re-sizing the image and you can't see what the error message says: http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/8851/gsourceerror.jpg)

And then the game crashes when I click ok. Back when I played the mod when it was 1.1, I for some reason would play it in a windowed mode instead of fullscreen. I have no idea why I did that, but I suspect that is why this error message is coming up for me, because every other game and mod I have on steam works fine, and they are not in windowed modes.

Can someone please tell me how to bring the game back to a fullscreened mode without using the options/settings screen (because I cant even get to them due to the game crashing before it starts)? That is IF that is what the problem is...

Any help would be appreciated.

Definitely reinstall the 3.0.1 full

That's the best bet. It happens sometimes.

Thanks, it worked. Problem now is that once i've joined a game, I seemed to get kicked after a bit and the game tells me it couldnt connect to the VAC server.

Close Steam, elete the .blob file in your Source directory, restart Steam. It will do a little update thingie and you should be fine.

or if you didn't want to go deleting things, you could also just go to file-->change user--->logout and then sign in again and it usually always fixes the problem. Least it always has for me whenever I have gotten that.

It is also worth making sure your bandwidth settings for th steam client are setup correctly ususally with the updates it can be reset to defauts which is the lowest speed normally.
