Steam issue


Recommended Posts

Seems to be happening to a lot of people at the moment. Just happened to me and my friend. Mine could have done with a clean up anyways. Kinda frustrating though.

Ouch.. You know some of the people on my friends list have been on my friends list since steam was first released.. I don't even remember who they are or their steam names.. LOL

I wonder if it will be restored. I'm adding the main people for now but I dunno if it will, or can be restored. Anyway half the people on my FL I didn't talk to.

So what does everyone think of the new UI beta?

Alright, some things still need tweaking, which I've posted in the Steam forums, otherwise good.

It sucks because I can start Steam anymore. It crashes right after I login.

*Edit*

Uninstalled it with: steam.exe -clearbeta

Or you could try deleting the clientregistry.blob which is the Steam fix-em-all-er-upper-try-that-also thing :|

Just an FYI, if you Opt-In to the beta UI and have Modern Warfare 2 installed, apparently a bug exists where you have to redownload the entire MP portion of MW2. I am downloading again now, 89% done (yay for fast intertubes) but I haven't seen anywhere if ranks/stats are lost because of this issue yet either. Gonna be kinda ticked off if I lose my rank :|

My rank and unlocks etc are all there. So, for me it's no biggie to redownload the 8 gigs since it takes less than 40 minutes anyways. But for others who are on metered broadband or don't want to waste the time it's a big problem naturally lol

MW2 also seems to be one of several (large) games that have this issue as well.

But, that's why this is a BETA after all :)

I did have the friends list issue earlier. It's working fine now though. I shouldn't have opted into the UI beta. Now I have to re-download 11GB of MW2 MP game data. :(
