Hi,

Since Valve's last up date I'm having an in game issue - I don't know how to fix it - It may also be part of the reason that some people have said they have seen some purple patches on my map.

Has anyone else seen this?

Also I can't remember how I dot the fps this on the bottom right - what's the command to get rid of it?

ok the net_graph 0 worked - thanks.

Tried the verify cache - didn't work - am trying a defrag and then will try the verify cash again.

the defrag, verify and complete restart of steam fixed the problem.

Can someone delete that other post - I updated the comments but somehow a separate post got mad on the same subject.

Sorry for the bump but this issue seems to keep repeating.

I verify the cache and restart steam - it's ok - 2 maps later the issue returns - any idea why this is happening?

When I run the verify cache it goes to 100% then stays there - I don't get any messages in the box, just the 100% at the top - does it do an auto close or has it completed when I see the 100% at the top?

here's the screen shot again since the one up top is broken

No - hard drive is ok.

I think the issue is that the verify cache theing never did the auto close as per valve's site (just looked it up too).

I have gone with their 2nd option of renaming my tf2 folder and redownloading all the file again :mellow:

Will see if that fixes it this time.
