https://support.stea...=1274-UOHK-5653
Q.: [color="red"]When i try to launch game, I get a message that says "hl2.exe has stopped working"
A.: Sometimes helps if you delete achievements! Delete those files:
"Counter Strike Source 2010\cstrike\gamestate.txt"
"Counter Strike Source 2010\bin\stats.bin"!
or your antivirus can cause game crashes, read on Steam Support:
https://support.stea...=9402-MKEN-1517
Q.: [color="red"]I get error: "CFileSystem_Steam::Init() failed:failed to find steam interface"
A.: Probably your antivirus deleted some game files, uninstall it and install some other antivirus like Kaspersky! Then reextract game.
Q.: [color="red"]I have graphical/visual issues
A.: Because you don't have graphics card for games. Sometimes "-dxlevel 80" parameter can fix it.
"-dxlevel 80" you can write in CS:S shortcut(left mouse click on shortcut and then go to properties), example:
"I:\Counter Strike Source 2010\hl2.exe" -game cstrike -console -dxlevel 80
or you can write it to "Counter Strike Source 2010.bat" file:
"start hl2.exe -game cstrike -console -dxlevel 80"
Q.: [color="red"]How to change name?
A.: Name changing works only in rev.ini file, open it with Notepad and edit "PlayerName=css.setti.info" to "PlayerName=Your_nick", file must be saved into ANSI encoding!
Q.: [color="red"]How to write name with cool letters?
A.: If you want nick with cool letters then you need to write it in as UTF-8 Hex bytes!
For SharpƩye nick it must look like this:

There you can convert character to UTF-8 hex -> http://www.packetize...characters.html

"Bad CRC for materials/effects/flashbang.vmt"
"Host_Error: Server is enforcing file consistency for materials/effects/flashbang.vmt"
"Your map [maps/de_dust2.bsp] differs from the server's."
A.: There is fucked up servers which are uploading to client broken game files, after you join such server you will be unable to play on any server with "sv_pure" enabled!
Deleting and reinstalling CS:S will restore your files back, so do not join these broken servers or you can disable downloads from servers with console command -> "cl_downloadfilter none"!

Q.: [color="red"]Is the microphone working?. Becouse nobody is talking, and when I talk, nobody answers.

Q.: [color="red"]Message in console - "The server you are trying to connect to is running an older version of the game"

A.: That means this server is for legit Steam players only, it's probably autoupdated and admin needs to crack it again for nosteam players!
Q.: [color="red"]Patching doesn't work. It says: SOFTWARE NOT FOUND"
A.: Problem is not in patch, but in what you are patching. Patch will work only on "[Setti]" release downloaded from torrent or httplinks posted in this post.
Or maybe you tampered with game files, or you are trying to patch wrong game version, or your antivirus deleted some game files. So Turn off antivirus, delete game and extract game again to new folder(like "D:\Games") and patch it(try to run patch as admin)!
Q.: [color="red"]I want to know, how do we enable MVP?(new feature in the latest counter-strike source, it would say who killed you, or revenge, nemesis, and lastly mvp at end of each round.)

A.: Try to use console command "connect IP"!
Q.: [color="red"]How to start Dedicated Server(SRCDS) + play game from same PC?
A.: You can't play game and run dedicated server from same folder(revemu limitation), just copy game to another folder and run dedicated server from there!
And you must edit rev.ini for dedicated server to work properly, leave everything at default and change only "#ClientDLL=" to "ClientDLL=" , and add sv_tags -> no-steam to get listed on masterserver.
Server starts with "srcds_console.bat" or "srcds.exe"
Server configuration is in this file -> "\cstrike\cfg\server.cfg"
If you want to host server for internet -> search google for guide!

Turn off antivirus, extract/install game to short disk path like - "D:\Games" , check if you have >4Gb free space on disk! Restart PC! Or try to extract on your friend's PC.
Q.: [color="red"]How to reset the Achievements?
