I really want some solutions because this is really important. Last edited by Willie Farton ; 15 Nov, am. Showing 1 - 9 of 9 comments. Your best bet if you have good internet is to go to the workshop mod files page, unsubscribe from everything, uninstall the game and then retry to download the game.
Test the game first and make sure it loads without any mods. IF it works then try the mods. IF it does NOT then validate the files. If it says the files are "ok" but the game still doesn't work then try to reinstall steam. Get BOTH to make sure all the bad stuff is cleaned off. IF all else fails and none of this works, then I would contact people on the forums of the game and get some help there.
Best wishes mate. PS: Even if doing the first few steps work doing some scans and cleaning your PC never hurts either. Just do NOT do the registry repair Last edited by ; 15 Nov, am. Create a free Team What is Teams?

Next time consider making a Steam Backup instead — badp. When I did a new OS install I just copy-pasted the folder and did a file validation check and it worked ok.

Because I sometimes had to manually "validate game cache" multiple times before the game finally stabilized on non-corrupted data.
Oak 3 days now :' , around 5 times, I have no corrupted data chkdsk'ed — HackToHell. I hate this bug. Sometimes to fix it, I have to resort to uninstalling the game and reinstalling it. Well Steam does not know the underlying Filesystem yet, so this problem can't be really solved I think. Win8 is not yet officially supported. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. There is no way to skip file validation in Steam. The following is based on my own experience with Steam doing this to me for TF2 and a similar case can be found here When I first installed TF2 some time ago on a Windows Vista install, it exhibited this behaviour for me.
Improve this answer. My HDD is 7 months old. GCF is a file format used by various Source games which essentially acts as a virtual hard disk for content; this file can suffer from internal fragmentation as files get changed and deleted, and this is the only kind of fragmentation Steam concerns itself with.
The OS only deals with actual HDD fragmentation, which Steam has no knowledge about - for that to play a role, Steam would have to test file access times, which seems highly unlikely.
MichaelMadsen Just because Steam has no knowledge of a problem does not mean the problem doesn't affect Steam and its decision to validate files. Your statement is very informative, but doesn't necessarily mean that this is not the solution.
As stated, that was my experience and that's what happened. Do what you will with that. HackToHell Unfortunately, age does not negate the failure of hardware]. This isn't fully inclusive, but doesn't say anything about it being impossible for a 7 month old hard disk to fail.
