    hm, i'd say redownloading the install files and reinstall...

    Yeah, the error is most likely caused by an error while updating (happens to everyone once ina while <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

    I suggest desintalling and reinstall Beta 1, Beta 4 and beta 4A

    you have not updated your NS properly

    Please follow Thansals thorough installation guide.

    remember you need to install the beta 4 etc patchs too

    to make things even simpler

    READ AND OBEY!

    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.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    <b> Slightly More Advanced Steps</b>

    <!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->1) Search your Hard drive for ns and nsp.

    2) Deleate all folders named that.

    3) Start from step 3 in my guide.

    4) Make sure you are using the properly named files for each step, the file name is listed with the step.

    5) Make sure you point each file at the place listed with the step
    5a) The first one should auto install with no choice of destination
    5b) The second one goes to: Steam\SteamApps\your@email\Half-Life
    5c) The 3rd should probably go to Steam\SteamApps\your@email\

    6) After each install step in my guide (steps 4, 5 and 6) search your hard drive for nsp
    6a) If you find only one folder, and it is located at Steam\SteamApps\your@email\half-life\nsp then you are good to go.
    6b) If you have only one nsp but it is some where else, move it to that location.
    6c) If you have 2 nsp folders, then move the one that is not in that location, over writing all files when prompted.
    6d) Each time you move an nsp folder search your hard drive again for nsp to double check.

    Here ends my Slightly more advanced Guide on how to friken install NSv3.0B4a

    why would he want to delete the updatesd from his other games i.e.CS, DOD, etc.

    Ns is third party and only fixable buy following the guides.

    Or maybe I interperted the BLOB wrong?

    I would suggest trying to delete that map that it sais it can't load and than DL it from the server and if it still keeps on saying that than I think you need to uninstall NS and install it again
