[DEFINITIVE] Half-Life 2 Thread


Recommended Posts

Hey there guys (and maybe 1 girl).. OK.. heres whats happened..

I turn my computer on today.. dial up on the internet and load messenger, i decide then to play half life 2.. but oh wait - i come up with this window!!

note - and no i havnt pirated it.

i could put the crack on easily.. but i feel i shouldnt have to, considering i have bought this and full entitled for full offline gameplay.

well its updated.. and im logging in.. but i better not have to do this everytime i play the game.. i cant allways be online.. my mother is bloody livid with me allready.

(i cant help it.. those lesbians are just too hard to resist)

EDIT:

its working now.. But still, i dont think you should HAVE to update if you want to play the game.. maybe i should set my firewall to block the steam.exe in its directory. i cant play CS anyway.. its too damn jolty, 1 secound the enemy is like 30 feet away, next secound im dead on the floor. :blink:

Get to the top using all the lifts and floating blocks - then suck energy balls out of the blue plasma thingy right near you using the grav gun and fire them at the protective shield around the big blue orb.. that'll destroy the shield around it, lots of stuff blows up, etc - the end :)

definitely fixed the stuttering a decent amount, although it is still there, it is much less apparant then it was.

however, for the first time EVER while playing the game, after this patch the game did cause my computer to restart itself, which the funny thing is i had it "paused" in the options menu cause i had to go to the bathrooom, so it was not even during action.

i came back to see my comp going through the boot process and then the OS telling me my system had recovered from a serious error would i like to submit it, or whatever the wording was (never happened before this at all, period)

i hope this is not a case of fix one thing (almost) and brand new problems arise.

I keep getting the same error while playing Half Life 2. The Windows XP error message is in Dutch, but it says something like: The instruction on 0x241f8977 refers to memory on 0x00cff5c0. The read- or writeprocess on the memory has faild.

Anybody know what the * :angry: * this means and what I can do about it?

Thanks in advance!

There is a link on the Steam news page to validate HL2 and CSS...they were ment to be used to fix this issue....ive only had this once (before that update) but it worked fine when i tried it again afterwards (or maybe i rebooted)....sorry if these dont help :/

A major compiler is used for both x86/x64 and WoA64 architectures. This also means that all core libraries are re-compiled accordingly which required some changes in the build scripts. One of the core libraries (cURL) has been updated to address vulnerabilities and a nasty linker error that was causing the need for a dedicated patch which could now be eliminated.

    • You missed out, Ico and Shadow of the Colossus were beautiful epic masterpieces, I never got to play The Last Guardian sadly so can't really comment on that one.
