To reiterate, I cannot load.fyiceworld. The error message I get, which is most unusual, tells me that devegas.wad couldn't be opened. So in other words, I'm trying to load one map (iceworld), and evidently Steam thinks it needs to load an entirely different map (vegas). As I mentioned in the first post, I have fyiceworld and devegas on disk already (although I don't really need devegas since I don't play that map).Bob 'Alex' wrote in message news.

Yes you do need vegas, iceworld uses some elements from vegas as do lots of third party maps (it's easier to borrow than create) If you are running 1.6 then surely your map files should be placed in C:.(whatever path to steam).

If I understand correctly,.wad files shouldn't be placed in the maps folder anyway. They should be placed in the cstrike folder, right? So, to 'fix' my problem, I would need to 1) copy.wad from 'C: Sierra Counter-Strike cstrike ' to 'C: Program Files Valve Steam SteamApps counter-strike cstrike ' 2) copy.bsp from 'C: Sierra Counter-Strike cstrike maps ' to 'C: Program Files Valve Steam SteamApps counter-strike cstrike maps' Sound right?

Sounds good to me. Archived from groups: alt.games.half-life.counterstrike Just to close this thread, here's what wound up working for me, in case anyone else runs into this: I copied the.wad and.bsp files as I described below in steps 1 and 2. At that point,.no. map would load (error message: 'server's map differs from your map').

I then moved the.wad files that I had just copied to my steamapps branch into a folder called 'backup', effectively hiding the files. I did the same for the.bsp files in the steamapps branch. Now at this point, the only maps that CS and Steam 'know' about are the ones that aren't hidden.the ones under my Sierra branch.the original maps that came with the retail game and additional maps installed by a map pack.

After hiding the maps in the steamapps branch, I was able to load maps again, plus steam was able to download devegas.wad when I connected to an fyiceworld server. Pretty weird, since the net result of all of the above was merely copying all my maps and texture files into backup folders under the steamapps branch.

Now instead of 'failed to load devegas.wad', Steam does what it should (i.e. Downloads the servers version of devegas.wad). I also find it weird that I had to download that file even though I had a copy of it in both branches at one point. It would be nice if Valve had a utility to clean up the mess left on the hard drive, where files are split/shared across two branches - Sierra and Steamapps.Bob 'I like toys and cake' wrote in message news.22795.0@nnrp-t71-02.news.clara.net.
