<div class="IPBDescription">and can we blame Jazz? :)</div>I started this same thread in the <a href="http://www.tacticalgamer.com/natural-selection-general-discussion/78442-steam-update-broke-natural-selection.html" target="_blank">Tactical Gamer NS forums</a>, but maybe this will do better for gathering information.

I can't launch NS after today's Steam update.

Anyone have any details?

    The update broke all HL1 mods. Chances are if you're reading this a fix is already out <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    I'll go ahead and quite the official reply from the STEAM-Powered forums, just for fun.

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->Are your CS 1.6 and HL Games crashing after the Aug 30th update? I sent a message to Valve, and got a reply. <b>They are working on the problem.</b>

    Do not reinstall Steam.
    Do not reinstall CS or HL games.
    Do not reinstall video card drivers, etc.
    Do not tweak your firewall.
    ... and so on. Doing the above won't fix the problem.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Looks like Valve's on it now. Hopefully this will be resolved quickly.

    We are aware of the issue, and are working on a resolution.

    Gold Source games should be back up and working within the hour. Please be patient.

    An update has just been released which should address the Gold Source crash problem. Please exit out of Steam and re launch to install the update.

    Eek! I wonder how this could've slipped through? Is it fixed for everyone now?
