Hi, I bought TF2 last night, installed it , loaded it up and then played for a few hours. Great game. Today, I try to load it up and nothing happens, all I get is this error message:
Steam.exe (main exception): CMultiFieldBlob(pSerialized): Bad field - extends past end of blob
So, can anyone help me with this?
