So when is valve gonna fix...

[madcat75]

the model loading errors? Once too often HL2 crashes on me when loading a certain point of the game. It crashes with a message saying "failed to open gman.vid" or something. When is this gonna be fixed? I'm sick of having to re-load windows just to play HL2 properly :flame:

... they made u nice game... stop complaining...

I have not heard of anyone else complaining about this, so it is probably not something for VALVe to fix, but for you to fix.

Try this. Load steam and click on this link to validate your HL2 files:

steam://validate/220

Well after verifying my game files and no errors came up, I dont know what it could be really. I havent talked to many people that have HL2 though, but the ones that I did talk to didnt have this problem so yea, I dont know what it could be.

[CyberPitz]

When was the last time you defragged your drive or scanned it for errors?

Just Run the Program: System File Checker instead of loading Windows XP all over again.

Hmm... weird problem... though I too receives that kind of error but my game never crashes.

I checked it, didnt do anything.

Also I might add I defragged and done everything possible to try to fix it but I guess it just wants to **** up.

You defragged and then installed right? Not just defragged with it installed already....

If so I agree, Valve needs to fix this problem NOW! It's causing havok on 1 maybe 2 people on earth. Damn them to hell!
