I’ve tried reinstalling and doing both the torrent, and the 2 zip files, but whenever I try and start the mod version of black mesa, the only thing I get is this error: 56/ - func_brush: UTIL_SetModel: not precached *14.
I have no idea what’s causing this and I created this account to try and fix this error. If anyone could help me solve this error, I would be very greatful! Thank you!
I suspect it might be a SteamPipe related issue. Something might be causing the wrong content to be mounted.
Try adding these launch options: -console -dev -condebug -conclearlog
These options won’t solve the problem, but might get you to the menu screen and bring the console up. Then type path
in the console to see what content is being mounted. It should look something like this:
] path

Also, check a file called console.log
(generated by -condebug
) and see if there are any clues there as to what’s going on (you may need to load a map to trigger the error.)
Furthermore, do you have a VConfig
environment variable set? You can override it by adding the -NoVConfig
launch option. Also, check if you have any Source games/mods in your EDIT: The PATH
environment variable (user/system).PATH
environment variable is probably not going to affect anything unless you run hl2.exe
from the Run dialog or Command Prompt.
