It has come to my attention that a lot of people have trouble getting the game to work, either getting "Error: Fital content from (HL1 Source) not found" or missing textures/models when bypassing the menu.
Now from what i know this is because the engine could not mount the needed content. Some possible causes are:
- the game(s) is/are not properly installed.
- the game(s) in question have missing content
- the game(s) are not installed in the propper location
But not to worry! There are a few ways to fix this.
- putting the command "+map fac_d1a1" in the start properties. (but this can cause a lot of missing content issues)
- select the game(s) in question -> properties -> local files -> select "move install folder" -> and select the location that source sdk base 2013 singleplayer is. (you can check this by selecting source sdk base 2013 singleplayer -> properties -> local files -> browse local files, and then going back 3 folders)
- copy the required vpk files and put them in the folder called "vpk" a list for vpk's to copy is:
- Portal/portal -> all vpk's that start with "portal_pak"
- Half-life 2/episodic -> all vpk's that start with "ep1_pak"
- Half-life 2/ep2 -> all vpk's that start with "ep2_pak"
- Half-Life 2/hl1 -> all vpk's that start with "hl1_pak"
- uninstall half-life: source, half-life 2, half-life 2 episode 1, half-life 2 episode 2,portal, source sdk base 2013 singleplayer
- in steam select "steam -> settings -> downloads -> steam library folders -> add library folder" select the folder you want your new library, and click "Add library folder"
- install the games again you uninstalled earlier, but before clicking next instantly, first click on "Choose location for install", and select the path of the library you just made
Please let me know if this helped. I will update this article if i find more information about the situation.
Creator, make your page private. All users can load any screens, video and more.
P.S. Screens looks good.
Thank you.
P.S. What page are you talking about? The image one?
this mod is so broken there is a lot of errors and missing texture, and also "Error: Fital content from (HL1 Source) not found" without +map fac_d1a1 command
"Error: Fital content from (HL1 Source) not found"
I checked hash (all 4 games), tried all betas (for HLS). Nothing helps.
Are these games installed in the same directory as Source SDK 2013 Singleplayer? Because that's the only way it seems to mount correctly.
If they are, than not all hope is lost yet...
One way to maybe bypass this crash is to add the following to the start options: "+map fac_d1a1"
I hope this helped, and sorry for the inconvenience.
Everything in one folder.
And yeap, menu.bsp is a problem.
That's correct.
The menu.bsp problem is caused by some code that runs in that map. Which checks if all content is mounted.
But if you are experiencing content problems
(missing models/textures/sounds), there is one way to fix that too. Just copy the vpk files from the games and place them in the folder called "vpk". The following is a list of things the game mounts so that you know what to look for.
HLS: all vpk's that start with hl1_pak
ep1: all vpk's that start with ep1_pak
ep2: all vpk's that start with ep2_pak
portal: all vpk's that start with portal_pak
Yeah, I got the same exact issue
I like the Beginner's Guide. Looking forward to this one
Thank you. I do need to warn you that the narrator part only happens in the final mod, which is still a while away.
