Ah! Nice catch. Thanks, and I'll work on getting that fixed
(shouldn't be case-sensitive).

I tried this with no luck.

I then reinstalled Steam in C:\Steam and then played some HL, excellent
for relieving the stress :) Then I installed my mod and played for a
bit, not quite as stress relieving as there are those bugs I'm trying to
debug. Then I tried to debug, same error, grrr.

So I d/l CS and had a play with it, very de-stressing, then copied my
mod there and played a bit, then tried to debug and it said F&*k you
buddy ... ahhhhhh!!!!

THEN I noticed that although I had typed my email in as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] the directory was actually
[EMAIL PROTECTED], so I changed SteamAppUser to lower case and
now I can debug. Damn thing is case sensitive in the debugger, so even
though I log in to Steam to play as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have to debug as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Someone want to add that to a FAQ?
