Oh my, oh my... f**k.

My Source SDK seems out of date as well and the thing is inaccessible now. Thanx Duncan. I love you so much more now,than I ever did this morning..

I'm curious, about steam, does anyone elses (almost regularly upon updating games) NOT update the games. There are times where I open steam, it begins to update the games ... then they all sit there at 0% for a week. I usually have to delete all the GCF files ... actually install them with the HL2 DVD I regrettably bought, then update those ... which seems to work. It's annoying as hell, and I can't find anything discussing it. I imagine it's because their servers are so packed ... but, that doesn't make it any less annoying.

Crono, I am not sure if this is relevant, since I do not update often but, twice today I shut the net off to check for missed calls... Yeah, that 56k thing again. Well anyway, upon reconnection, one out of two times, I had to pause the download, and restart it. The other time, it just took right off and downloaded.

Perhaps, you should pause and restart it as well..

Just a thought.

Do you honestly think I'd delete a 2 GB file and re-download it if I didn't try pausing it and restarting and logging out and back onto steam? :P

Thanks for the suggestion, in any case, but yes, I tried it, nothing would resume the downloads. As for right now, everything is running alright.


Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Crono, you are only smarter than me. That doesn't mean much really. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

Sorry, it wasn't helpful. I had only just learned it myself.

I just noticed that my "Lost Coast" is being updated. I already played Lost Coast. Why is it updating?

Right click on each and turn off what you don't need now. You can update them in steps.

Orph, some of the games that appear to be updating individually, are really only the one update being applied accross the board. the lost coast thing will be linked to some other update elsewhere, and not a seperate download.

Really? How odd.

The only thing on at the end (days end cause cs is still not complete) Was "Lost Coast and Counter-Strike"

You think CS and Lost are connected?

Anyway, as I shut things off (paused) the downloads increased.

The good news is, I can now use my editor and HL2 again. I feared they would bork out.

it could be something like an update to the hdr rendering, or some other shared resource.
