Re: Counterstrike 1.6 problems

Tres,
 
While he did link me a Source bug, it did resolve part of the issue.  For that, I am thankful!
 
However, the problem listed in the links you've provided unfortunately doesn't cover my situation.  I'm not even getting to the point where the 1.6 graphics engine even fires up.  Now, it's dying at the loading screen (the one with the two counter-terrorists in the picture and the counterstrike logo in the lower left corner.).  I'm not getting the initial menu or anything.  Have you seen anything like that before?  If so, how is it resolved?

Steve,

Rest assured, it's most likely a video driver issue.  He linked you the "source" bug, however, you are not running the source engine.

  • Half-Life2 and CounterStrike source use the "Source" engine.
  • Half-Life1 and CounterStrike 1.6 use the modified "quake2" engine, re-branded as "GoldenSource".

There are known issues with NVIDIA drivers 169.04 - 169.09 (and possibly others) with GoldenSource games.

Here's a few links:

I had no luck on this mailing list either, (Steam and Wine don't debug well together, so I couldn't provide enough information).

I kept searching until I found the issue.  It is caused by the NVIDIA driver, but only affects this game from what I've found (Quake2, Quake3, native and in wine work flawlessly).

Hope this helps you in your struggles!

James,

I see that now.  Unfortunately, your prior message wasn't clear as to whether you wanted me to post a bug or search for a bug.  Anything past that, I'm just going to let it lay where it landed.  Right now I just want to figure out what I'm doing wrong with this game.  It's a bit frustrating, as I've managed to get WoW, EVE Online, Starcraft, Warcraft II and III working, but I can't get this bleeding game working.

What I was trying to suggest is that this problem did not have an easy
fix and was in the bugzilla already.
