ok, I jumped the gun, ignore everything below the line
you say you were playing ok before the map change? _____________________________________________________ 1) Install Steam.
2) Play HL atleast Once via Steam (just booting up the training mission will do).
3) Download these 3 files: ns_install_v3_b1.exe ns_v30_b4_patch.exe ns_v30_b4a_patch.exe
4) Install NS V3.0 Beta 1 (ns_install_v3_b1.exe) (This should auto install to steam\steamApps\your@email\half-life\nsp, if it does not, move the NSP folder there).
5) Install NS V3.0 Beta 4 (ns_v30_b4_patch.exe) (point this at steam\steamApps\your@email\Half-Life\ do NOT include the NSP).
6) Install NS V3.0 Beta 4a (ns_v30_b4a_patch.exe) (See * at bottom).
7) Search your Hard drive(s) for folders named nsp.
8) If you have more than one you messed up. Goto Step 3.
If you folow these steps properly you will not get client.dll or map.bsp errors.
If you are positive you have folowed them corectly then redownload the installer form a different location.
*There aslo seems to be a bug with, atleast some of, the 4a installers. Try pointing it at steamApps\your@email\ instead of steamApps\your@email\half-life
Note: This is a file stored on my desktop because I have to use it so many times.
im still geting the error i even checked for the nsp folders i only got one i removed the half life line on the installed for 4a and its still doing it

umm....
does this hapen on any other maps? one posible idea is to rename your ns_metal.bsp (try ns_metal.bsp.bak) and then joining a server with it. some servers have it set so that you will download the map from them......
its wierd that you were playing til lthe map change....
I ge this alot. You can play that map then when it next comes on it dosen't like it. I just reinstall 4 then 4a to get the bsp's back, i have no idea what the problem is.
I get this randomly too with all HL mods/games, just restarting your computer seems to fix it. I think this may be caused by a cached file in memory becoming slightly corrupt and HL tries to load the one from memory instead of the file on the harddrive to shorten loading times.
