Local game content files missing...?

[SargeFIN]

Hello from Finland!

First of all I tried to find this topic with search but came up nothing solid. I hope you can solve this problem.

One of my friend has problems with Steam. When he starts up Steam, in my games tab there are lot's of games on the list but in Red Orchestra it says "downloading 0%". When he tries to start up the game it says local game content files are missing. Is there a way to fix this problem or does he have to un-install Steam and RO and then install them back? Game had worked fine since few days back. We tried to delete that .blog file -> didn't help. This is a boxed version of the game and it has been installed from the cd's. We also tried to defrag the files with Steam's own defrag option -> didn't help either.

Have him try this.

From the Steam games listing > Right click on Red Orchestra > Select properties > Select the "Local Files" tab in the new window > Select "verify integrity of game cache"

See if that helps him.

and if his internet is fast enough you can try just deleting the cd content and downloading it all from steam.

My guess is that this is the best option too. You mean he should delete that directory of red orchestra which is under a "common" folder?

P.S Delft is a very nice city. I was there few years back and it was a cousy little town

jup c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\Red Orchestra
just delete that entire RO folder. and try to download stuff through steam.

If it then still doesn't work first do the delete clientregistry.blob thing again and if that is to no avail and it keeps hanging at 0% you probably have a firewall or something blocking steam.

I personally find delft a bit boring tbh, if you want to go somewhere for a drink or watch some music you always need to go away its simply too small. Then again i only live here for about a year now (for my studies) used to live in Amsterdam :X
