When I try playing it I get Engine Error: MountFilesystem( 381 ) failed: SteamMountFilesystem(1064,381,0x11d4fd28=,0x11d4fc18) failed with error5: No Steam Content Servers are available what do i do? I have HL2 and TF2

[Twitwi]

Do you have other mods (indies doesn't count) that work?

Have you played half life 2 once (you will need to have played once before being able to play mods)?
else do you have source sdk base (installed)?

bonus info: the polls are optional, you don't got to have them.

i have the same problem, but the funny thing is my Cuz can use it on his Vista without having Half life 2, he had team fortress and source SDK, he used my steam account and it still worked o.o

i still have XP cause i cba upgrading atm, so maybe its something to do with out computers being XP, if ur one is XP then it would make sence.... yet be more confusing lol

You don't need to have Half-Life 2 and you don't need to run it.

All you need is Source SDK Base 2007. You can try running that from the Tools menu, or even validating its file through Steam.

The error "No Steam Content Servers are available" usually happens when Steam can't communicate with Valve servers to verify files or download missing ones.

Also, p0wer pwn, your problem isn't the same. I've already replied to your problem: Issue 47

We tested it on XP and it worked fine, so unless you have some weird setup, it should work.

You say your cousin played Overwatch with your account on another computer?
I would do one or both of the following to attempt to solve (close Steam first)-

-navigate to your Steam folder (C:\Steam) and delete ClientRegistry.blob (this wont harm your Steam Account, it will simply force the program to create a new one thus refreshing the registry.) Run Steam and it will auto-update. Once complete re-run Overwatch to see if the problem is resolved. I have fixed various errors using this method, however your problem may not have anything to do with the registry and it may not work. However rest assured it will not cause any harm.

-Simply uninstall/delete Overwatch and reinstall using the installer. Easy!

Hopefully you get it fixed, however I doubt it is XP since I am using XP.

Hey,

Report ID #53: Engine Error at startup

Try to see if you have enough free disk space (at least 2 GB).

Yeah, for the time being make sure you have enough free space as Steam seems to want to create large empty GCF files for various Half-Life 2 related games (if you own them). It's going to require some research for us to determine why Steam feels the need to do this when Overwatch has no dependencies other than Source SDK Base 2007.

I've installed the 2010_08-20-Overwatch_110.exe file, and have read the message that says that I need to restart Steam to see it in my library. Well, I've done so, but nothing ever does appear in the list! I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and I've tried deleting the .blob file to see if that has any effect. I have 3 games in the list (CoD: MW2, Multiplayer, and Half Life) and due to the way Steam works, I can't reinstall my Orange Box because I've already used the key code previously.

As a long shot, I've also tried to look for the "Source SDK Base 2007," which wasn't in the Tools list (I did find one called Source Dedicated Server, and the Team Fortress II one as well, and downloaded those to see if that is what I'm supposed to get), and still no avail.

Could it be that I need the Orange Box installed to get anywhere with the mod? (I've read that I don't necessarily need Half Life 2...)

I hope this was detailed enough (if not too detailed )

Hi OkamiOtaku,

For starters, our installer is named Overwatch_110.exe and not 2010_08-20-Overwatch_110.exe -- Could you PM me the URL of where you downloaded the file?

Also, when you were going through the installation process, what folder did you select as a Destination Folder?



What Operating System are you running? (Version, any Service Packs?, 32/64bit?)

Thanks.

Sorry for the delayed answer...I'm a busy man ...

How much free space do you have exactly, on the drive where Steam is installed?

Aside from that, if you've tried all other suggestions in this thread, I'm really not sure. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Overwatch?

Hi tomafisher,

Can you post the error you're getting?

I don't remember that was a long time ago since I had FoW installed at that time and I got that uninstalled for the squeal. I think I might have tried windows compatibility on the .EXE for Overwatch
