Half Life 2 coop Starting Problem

[Falke88]

Hey guys!

I'm new to this and wanna show a friend the HL² story but in coop tho!

I just created a server and stood in the lobby - then went to Half Life ² Hallway and through Door #1

There just appears the Gman staying around - some credits appear on the bottom left corner - but nothing happens...

Do I have to do anything so it works or what?

Edit: I started HL² before and played the first level tho

[MaestraFénix]

Hmm, i don´t know why don´t work. Try verificate cache of HL2.

[Falke88]

Sounds like the mapadds didn't load, you sure you installed 1.35 properly? check if you have a maps/cfg folder and if there's files inside like d1_trainstation_01_modify.txt

[Falke88]

Hey Worfox - - there is a map like "d1_trainstation_01_modify.txt"

Btw I get this model error while installing Obsidian - but I read that I shouldnt bother bout that cause it happens to everyone?

[Neico]

it's in fact not an error just an implemented feature that gets the custom playermodel installer (which never has been released thus the warning) and then allows you to install the custom player models

I have the exact same problem and I can't figure out why. I verified HL2's cache, and it was fine. So, I join Ch. 1 of HL2 from oc_lobby, and when it loads, I get a glimpse of the actual level, and then G-man appears and everything goes black (like in the real game) but Gman just stands there and I am stuck in a pitch black room with him. I can run around and use my medpack, but that's it. I have a fresh install of OC 1.35 as of today, and have already fixed my ATI card issues, but can't get around this one. Just a note, I have tried it on Static and non-stack mounting, same result. Here's the console error:

When I turn on static mounting, the combine_intmonitor001_disp_alert error goes away, but the others remain.

Everything else seems to work fine.. all the other maps I've tried have no issues. Any ideas on this one?

EDIT: I have only tried testing with one player so far, so that could be the whole problem. Pretty sure it is... waiting for a friend to finish downloading it to test with him.

Same thing happened to me. Quick glimpse of the train station and then just Gman (named Cycle_actor) standing in an abyss.

EDIT: All other levels work correctly besides the first level D:

EDITEDIT: I can no clip to the map, temporary fix but you miss the cool little introduction by the g-man
