Correct. The windows servers shouldn't need the sound caches, but in the meantime copying over a sound.cache file will prevent the crash.

However, having spent the last few hours trying to get it to run, I'm giving up for the night, concluding that a) I'm missing something or b) L4D2 beta is buggy and won't run. No matter what I do, it crashes on startup. I have a clean L4D2 beta install, no plugins at all. Start server, with or without a map specified, and it immediately crashes. No log entry, no errors that I can see, no crash dumps, just poof gone. The console comes and goes so fast I can't see what it is saying. I know from (painful) experience that you have to get the -game parameter right or it will do this, but I'm using -game left4dead2 like I always have. Has this changed with the beta server? If I start it up without -console, you get the gui, and if I start the server from the gui, it still immediately crashes. I reverted to the non-beta L4D2 and it fired right up as expected. Is anyone running a L4D2 beta server? FWIW this is running on Windows 7 64 bit. On 06/30/2013 10:58 PM, Andreas Grimm wrote: Try...

Is it possible that Valve just didn't get around to actually making the beta available via steamcmd?

Add "-beta beta" to your SteamCMD command line to get the beta. This is the updated build that will be released to clients next week, so it is NOT interoperable with the current public client. Due to updated build scripts and a regeneration of the vpk's, this depot will be about 2GB smaller than the pre-SteamPipe version. - Kerry _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
