Something is happening, mine is at 88% now...
/ I know that was some sort of bug, but they fixed that, right?

We're trying to say, every other time there has been a cs:source update, it makes HL2 look like it went down to 99%. This wasn't an HL2 preload, just a cs update.

That just means: content servers too busy to let you download this update right now, try later, but written differently because you got it from the preload window. If you try setting CS:S to "Do not auto update" then to "Auto update" it'll probably give you a error to the same effect.

I think I understand why this is. Steam has just enough data about the update to know that the cache files containing that 22% of the data are potentially not right. So they're listed as being 0% up-to-date.
Once you can connect to a content server serving the update, it'll pop back up to 99% or so when the Steam client is told most of the data in the shared source files is just fine.

lol thanks for hte info ff
Right, I reckon when you restart Steam, the central Steam server tells your client there's been an update in some cache files. It then regards the data in these cache files as being invalid.
In this case, the updated cache files were the shared source ones. These are used by both CS:S and HL2, so when Steam works out the percentage of the HL2 data you have, it comes to 88% because it now sees some of the data as invalid.
Now, ususally what happens is it contacts a content server which serves data for those cache files which are invalid. It then asks the content server which files in that cache are out of date. If it contacts, it realises the vast majority of the data is perfectly valid and up-to-date, and the percentage complete jumps up to 99%, and it starts downloading the files it needs to finish the update.
If you can't connect to a content server for any reason, it stays at 88% until you can.

WTF?! Are you absolutely dumb or what? Did you not even bother to bring up the Steam monitor when Steam was "working"? I mean please, just cause Steam is doing something doesn't mean its the next preload for HL2.....rocklegendfm99 said:
