Forgive my (renewed) ignorance, I have not had reason to install a new HLDS instance in like ... a year probably. Obviously, I must be missing something basic here. Maybe something changed that I am just not remembering.
I am just trying to install HLDS to run an HL1 Deathmatch server - not a "mod" (TFC, etc.). The installation command I am using (which has worked before, but maybe a long time ago) is: ~/steamcmd/steamcmd.sh +login someloginname +force_install_dir /home/someusername/somefolder +app_update 90 validate +quit; It APPEARED to install (i.e. said "App '90' fully installed."). However, when I try to actually RUN what's installed, I get this error: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): W_LoadWadFile: couldn't load gfx.wad If I run the installation again (to "validate"), I get this warning about other AppID's?
