ok so I play TF2 randomly, but have really gotten interested lately. How can I find out my achievements and/or how much more I need to unlock things etc.. So I know what to work towards?

Click on "Achievements" in the main menu to check your, well... achievements. It's under "Character Info and Setup". ;)

Anyway, the Team Fortress 2 forums are quite slow. I assume a lot of people are over there to find out about the update's precise release time.

Like me! F5 spam, FTW!

EDIT: Ok, my index finger is numb. No more F5 tonight, I'm going to bed!

There is supposed to be a free to play day for this game, right? I preloaded this game but it wants me to purchase it. How can I play it for free this weekend?

Yes. The free weekend starts Thursday (today). It's only 8:03 PM EST right now. It's possible that it'll start later tonight, before 12:00 AM EST.

Got the update at 1.2mb/s, seems ok so far although it's a bit hard to play while being sniped or backstabbed :p

Atleast you can play. I managed to get it to download the update after 20mins of spamming it to do it, then when i get into the game i can't do anything else cause it wont connect to steam.

Sigh.. such fail steam is.

IDK what the hell happened, but apparentlly the update has screwed up my ability to join any server let alone the steam network(yet once in the game, it will connect to the friends list....)

i now get the error/disconnect: "Server is enforcing file consistency for this file: particles\water_dx80.pcf"

googling/looking around people have said find the file, delete, if you can't find it, then it's in the TF2 GCF file, which means to delete local content/the TF2 GCF file, and reinstall(as Validating apparentlly is totally worthless)....thing is i keep hearing other people having same issues since the update dropped....

any ideas?

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more

      Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

      It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
