this is most likely a write-protected file in your SourceSDK folder.

Exit Steam and rename the entire folder, typically:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\<account>\sourcesdk

to

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\<account>\sourcesdk_old

then run steam and run the SDK.

You weren't getting the error before because the protected file had the same
md5 as what was in the old whitelist.

You can move over your custom files from the renamed folder once it's all
working again.

Subject: [hlcoders] SDK problem


I am writing this to see if someone can get help or if Valve can have a
look
because I am out of ideas.

After the small 26/1 update I can't start the SDK. It keeps giving the
error
"This game is currently unavailable".

I already reinstalled the SDK (by deleting the folders and the gfc),
refresh
the SDK, checked the cache/gfc and everything else that I could remember
and
nothing.
But I notice that after I delete the folders sourcesdk and
sourcesdk_content
the SDK runs. It will then create the sourcesdk and sourcesdk_content
folder. When I close the SDK launcher and try to open it again it starts
to
give the error so it must be something after related to the sourcesdk and
sourcesdk_content folders.

As said before, this was not happening before the 26/1 update and the gfc
is
not corrupted.

Any help?
Can I get more info from any log file?

Thanks,
Davide (DAV)
