Game Crashing

[Carmine]

Hey guys, I want to get on the server but I have a problem... Whenever I join a server and pick a team, I pick my class and immediantly after I pick my class the game crashes. Any solutions? (This has not happened before this newest version)

Anyone know how to fix this?

I don't know if this fixes it. But, when it happened to me I did something. I wait a bit when i first enter the server, until after the steam friends panel pops up, and i haven't had that problem since. See if that help.

The only problem i have now is that hl2 engine crashes every once in a while when i start the game up rightaway.

The only way to keep mine from crashing is to not change any of the graphical settings.

Yes, I had the same problem and it is well known. Thank Mostly Harmless for the fix;

To fix it, do not have full in game music enabled, it interferres with steam servers and crashes it somehow.
