This is a problem that Valve introduced with the latest client update.
People all over the world are freaking out because they can't join servers
from the server list.

As the official custodian of the THWACK! stick, it is my solemn duty to
administer to Valve a very well deserved

(dang....use a non-proportional font to see this)

For an incredibly piss poor quality control job. I expect that Valve will be
releasing an update that fixes this VERY VERY soon! And there are probably a
few people there right now with very red faces.

Subject: [hlds] Strange client problem



Sorry if this is not the place to post this question but I can't find an
answer anyplace else and you guys are very good at solving problems.
Although I do run a hlDS this is not really a server question... almost.
This morning when I attempted to enter a game on my server (from my game
puter) Steam indicated that it was downloading updates... not too shocking
yet... but after the update was done and I tried to enter the game, I got
a
message asking if I wanted to Download and install dedicated Server.  If I
say no, the Steam  "Servers" screen redisplays but I can't enter any
server.
If I say yes, the Dedicated Server install downloads and thereafter, when
I
attempt to enter any server, I get the screen up to start a "dedicated
server".
Long story short, I can no longer join any server from my client.  I
performed the standard "delete the Clientregistry.blob stuff and stopped
and
started Steam several times, but the problem remains.  As near as I can
tell, my server is running fine but my game puter(client) can't join any
servers.  Basically, the function to join a server , no longer executes
Half-Life but instead wants to either download dedicated server or start
dedicated server.
