v4.2 crash on start
killermonkey:
Right click the "paused download", you might have to hit pause download, then right click again and hit resume download. Steam is stupid.
Koba:
But I don't want that game installed. Why does running GES trigger its download?
One more issue I'm having is that the game doesn't exit properly (and I have to kill hl2.exe and gameoverlayui.exe) so all my video settings don't get saved.
killermonkey:
You don't really have a choice since these things are forced on people because that's the way Valve setup their modding system
The game should end properly, I applied a fix that was suggested previously. If you continue to have the problem AFTER updating the game that is paused, let us know.
Koba:
Okay I let Steam download the 7GB of data for HL2 Ep2 but it didn't help. The game still won't exit properly meaning I have to go through all my settings each time I launch the game. And for each time I launch it there's a new hl2.exe process that I have to kill.
What exactly did you guys change in this release that's causing this?
*edit*
I removed the -dxlevel 81 launch option and everything seems to work now. But I don't get it, does GES now require HL2Ep2 to be installed in order to work? What if someone doesn't have that game?

No, The only requirement is still Source SDK Base 2007, Why Ep2 is downloading is a bug I've encountered before during Beta 3 days, I have no idea why it happens, But I just kept deleting it over and over again.
