I HAVE A SOLUTION!!!!!!! ANYONE WANT TO KNOW???????????????????

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

LOL..allright..the catch is that you HAVE to be running Counter Strike 1.6 everytime you play Counter Strike : Source. OK This is what you do.

Run Counter Strike 1.6 and ALT TAB that sucker THEN run Counter Strike Source BUT the problem will be that you can't se any text in there so listen to the clicks and on the left side go 3 clicks up and that will be the stress test. RUN it and when it's finished you will be able to se the text and play it. The only thing is that you have to do this every time you play :(

i'll have to test this at home later... since i'm at work :pinch:

but what a weird fix though! I hope it works for me too!

keep the thread updated if you find any other fix!! thanks a lot man! :)

:blink: that seems like a crazy workaround.

Allright I tested it and it works 10000% but I have an easier way. Just go to the top and go 1 click down. Not the 1st but the 2nd click and creat a game. when the game is created disconnect and you'll be able to se everything :)

Now for the bugs I've noticed with this method. When you click on find servers, the windows wont come up :( thats about it..LOL

So till valve comes up with a fix for this gay problem, we'll be stuck playing alone :(

And you're sure you arnt running the same Drivers, GFX card etc. ? Maybe there's a bug somewhere ....

[Guest bartekpl]

right now im running on the new catalyst 4.8...maybe i should try 4.7 ?

[Guest bartekpl]

here is an ingame screenshots i took

[djesteban]

4.7 didn't do it for me... then I upgraded to 4.8... same error

bartekpl: When you say create game... you mean in CS:S??? but you still have to run it at the same time than CS 1.6??

or i'm lost? hehe..

[djesteban]

bartekpl: on the other forum you visited... are they a lot of people with the same problem?? are we alone??

I hope we are not isolated cases... or i won't be able to play the damn thing :no:

*EDIT* have you sended a troubleshoot to valve... if not please do it too so they fix that gay bug

[Guest bartekpl]

TONS of people have this problem. When I mean create a game in CSS i mean making a new game. thats will take less time then running the stress test ;)

[Guest bartekpl]

I send valve the problem with the memory and how I figured this out. Maybe they'll work on it right away!

[Guest bartekpl]

Does anyone have any more info about this problem? Im getting soo tired of looking :(

[Nutop]

try two things:

1st: Try running the game with console on. Which can be done by right clicking the game in your play games list in steam and hitting properties. In properties go to launch options and add -console.

2nd: http://steampowered.com/forums/showthread....threadid=124792

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!

No problem. I know how annoying it was trying to fix the memory error.
