[ISSUE]The game crashes at startup
« on: February 04, 2011, 01:30:47 am »
The game crashes after the valve and powered by source splash screens. I don't know what could be wrong. I even installed and played the beta 4 version to see if it was the sdk that was causing problems but I could play that fine. I can play other mods too. The error points to vstdlib.dll but I did a quick google search to no avail.

Here is the memory dump file if it help

I can't read dump files, but you could always try redownloading the full mod from a different source to see if you got a corrupted version or something. I haven't heard anyone else having this problem in version 4.1 but I did in 4, obviously cause we didn't use FMOD.

Try verifying the integrity of tool cache on your Source SDK Base 2007 files in Steam>Tools

If it's showing the Valve/Source splash screens, then the mod didn't install correctly. Download the v4.1 installer and try again.

Also check if you installed Source SDK Base 2007.
The regular (old) Source SDK Base is only for mods based on the 2006 engine formerly known as EP1.

That seemed to be the error. I downloaded the installer form the torrent and it looks like it was downloaded fine. Now I don't know why the file changes its checksum by itself and doesn't install properly. I need to look in to that.

Thankfully I managed to install almost all of it. Now if someone could do me a really big favor and upload these two files for me to download:

gesource\maps\ge_bunker_classic.bsp
gesource\materials\models\players\006\006_mi6_body_normal.vtf

Those two are the only files that failed verification.

Thanks in advance!

chances are, if you didn't get those two files, you are probably missing other files too that you aren't aware of. Your best bet is to re download the mod from moddb or another site that isn't the torrent so that you have the complete game with nothing missing. Don't try to patch individual files, it will give you too much of a headache.
