This server has failed to start 8 times in a row, indicating a problem with the server. View this servers Failure Reports for more information

i read in another post that this is because of gamecreate having trouble querying the server. im 99.9999% sure this isn't a firewall issue though

i read you can turn off the querying thing, which i tried. but i stil lcant connect to the server ingame. i get an error message cannot connect to server after 4 tries ( 209.160.64.228:27015 ) i can't figure out what's up

Start the server yourself manually (be sure to use the EXACT same command line GameCreate uses as per the servers Overview tab) and see what happens at the server console.

it looks like a corrupt installation?.

i'm going to uninstall it then re install it. if someone thinks it could be a different issue please say so

[Andrew]

Just try installing the game manually via steam.

[mrsako]

i dont think i can do it that way can i?

this is a dedicated server im hosting, the only access i have to it is through shell acesss (linux server)

[Andrew]

Sure you can, read the lower right module on this page: http://www.steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=getsteamnow

[mrsako]

do i run hldsupdatetool.bin in the gamecreate srcds directory (to install it in the correct place for gamecreate)

[Andrew]

Yes

[mrsako]

even the install from the steam tool gives me this line when starting the server up:

Error: Material "sprites/bubble" : proxy "AnimatedTexture" not found!


$@$#!!@$!%@$

[Andrew]

This is a Steam "problem" - post on their forums who are more familier with the game.
