Client.dll init () in library client failed

I’m aware that this has been happening for the last 6 hours, since Valve updated the engine. I’m going to head into the office right now to look into it and see if I can get a patch to fix it.

This is the cost of being on the newest version of the Source engine. It’s going to happen sometimes. But I’d rather have a days downtime every 6 months than be on a 2 year old version of the Source engine. I hope you agree. I’ll edit this post with updates as I get them.

09:18 – Got into the office. Looking into the issue.
09:24 – Apparently mdlcache is NULL. Uh-oh. Merging code with Valve’s latest.
09:56 – Merging code. It’s slow shoving code about on SVN.
10:07 – Chatting in the steam chat while I’m waiting – join it here
10:18 – 200 people in chat, it’s unchattable. Merging code now, going well so far.
10:37 – Merge was successful, committing, then I’ll try to compile it, then fix any errors. Then hopefully we should be ready.
10:38 – PC is compiling fine – mac is complaining: “ld: library not found for -l-liconv”
11:21 – After much head scratching – I think I have fixed the OSX build. Testing now.
11:41 – SVN version should work properly now
11:52 – Waiting for OSX build to complete
12:09 – .. and I’m done! I’ve done everything I can. It’s in Valve’s hands now. I’ve emailed everyone I know there to tell them there’s an update that needs to go out but I don’t know whether they work on a Saturday. Wish they’d let us push our own updates out! Oh well, fingers crossed that it fixes everything!
