hl2.exe Error?

[NoogyMan]

Wtf does this mean and How the hell do I get it to stop?!

This has been kicking me off CSS everytime I start it up and get in a good game.
-Jackd said he also gets this sometimes; however, it doesn't kick him off. It does kick me off of CSS.

This is bugging the shit out of me....

i usually get that if i leave the game minimized for a long time and try to bring it up /shrug

1st.
Verify your game cache.
(steam icon->games->rightclick css->properties->localfiles->verify game cache)
See if it starts.

2nd.
Rename config.cfg in /cfg/ to configold.cfg

See if it starts.

It's been happening to me while i'm in game playing. It's kicked me off like 2-3 times every 5-10 min. I'm in Gungame.

It used to happen to me when i had a coding account after i modified some files.

It happens to me as well when:
1. I have been idling for a long time and i try to open css up from being minimized.
2. I alt-tab out and re-open css multiple times
3. I alt-tab out while i'm joining a server.

It's never kicked me out while i was in-game though.

yeah, i get it every now and then as well. pretty much like they all said. i also get it if i jump servers too quickly. but it's gotta be something different if it's happening that often. tried restarting steam? have you changed anything with your steam files?

[NoogyMan]

I logged out and back in to steam. Didn't work.

1st.
Verify your game cache.
(steam icon->games->rightclick css->properties->localfiles->verify game cache)
See if it starts.

2nd.
Rename config.cfg in /cfg/ to configold.cfg

See if it starts.

I Did this. It worked for awhile but when I switched from the GunGame server to the Deathmatch server. It did it again. But when I rejoined after it did it. It didn't do it....

so yay, problem solved? or is it just laying in wait, watching you let your guard down?

[NoogyMan]

Ok seriously this thing is pissing me off.

I started up CSS and none of my binds where there so I typed them all in again and they worked. Like 3 mins. ago that fucking thing popped up again, I started CSS again and NONE of my bind where there....

Anyone else got a way to stop this thing???

Khaotic I did the rename thing and when i just now reopened it there is a config.cfg and an configold.cfg

Noogy, start up css, put in your binds. Then ESC > Exit. Your binds will save.

Alternatively you can save them in your config.cfg

What's happening is you are losing all your saved information when hl2 (CS:S) crashes. I had the same problem, so I did what I said for you to do and now my binds are saved.

So just start it up put in my binds than exit? I'll do it now and make sure they work and edit this post.

Give me a min.

Yes sir, if you get the hl2.exe error when you exit they wont save though, so if it gives you that error, do it in the config.cfg

I'm not to sure what could be causing your hl2.exe error as I've never had it actually kick me out of game with it, except on some maps when there are server overloads. (Excessive props spawned)

Ok so I did it. I didn't get that error on the way out so hopfully it saved.

What about that whole config.cfg and configold.cfg.... I renamed the config.cfg file to the configold.cfg file like Khaotic said but now they are both there.

I think that was the point, this way it would autogenerate a new config for you.
(A fresh one)

Not sure though, youll have to ask him.
