can't start my mod Created 18 years ago2006-09-23 20:49:38 UTC by guy

When I click on my mod or any other third party mod it says it can't load the library client. What's goin on?

Can you give us a bit more information of the problem?

Can you load HL2 or CS:S? Can you load GMod (if you have it)? What's this mod of yours like? Were you able to load it before hand? Was there any more to the error message than just "can't load library client"? Can you provide us with a few screenshots of the problem?

etc.

HL2 and CS:S works just fine but ever since a certain steam update was applied no mod that I make will work. Maybe if I download a later version of a third party mod it will work but mainly I'm just trying to run mine. When I start it up it appears to load and does the whole black screen thing but then it quits and says it has an 'Engine Error' "Could not load library client". I'm guessing it may have something to do with one of those major updates, like the one where it said you have to change that SteamAppId number in the gameinfo txt file. Well I changed it but after that it never seemed to work.

change it back?
try:
220
or
215

I never changed my appID (it's still 220) and my mod still runs fine.

Oh my god! your a frikkin genius, thank you. That bloody steam, trying to wreck my fun.

lozl.
