OC not showing up in my Steam games

Post by JuiceandChocolate »

I still have the files installed (as seen below) but it doesn't show up on my list. Help, por favor?

Where is your gameinfo.txt? Without it, Steam doesn't know the folder is a mod.

That's the thing, I have absolutely NO idea where it went. No one went on the computer when I played this morning so it couldn't have been deleted by my family. Is my computer haunted?

The client hotfix provides a replacement gameinfo.txt file, did you install it properly?
Apparently, Valve can't make games beyond the number 2.
I think the only time we'll get a Source SDK code update is when it starts having purchasable hats integrated, i.e. hatconomy.

Please do not make assumptions you are not knowledgeable enough to make - that just backfires on yourself.
Tick me off, and I'll be sure to give you the golden treatment. Haven't you heard? Silence is golden.

I did install the hotfix, and it changed the name of OC 1.35 to 0.1.35 (I think that's how it was, all I remember was that there was a 0 in front of it). Then I turned off my pc, turned it back on later, and poof. I'm just gonna back up my custom files and reinstall and copy over everything, is that recommended?

why don't you try to apply the hotfix first again, if there is a gameinfo.txt in it like tesla said then this should fix your issue already
