Missing Background Help

Having a problem on startup of the game

By DialgaRules24 9 months ago

I got the game yesterday and it worked fine, but today I tried to (unsuccessfully) put a skin on my deagle, and now I can't get the game to run. I start it via Steam and it goes to a black screen with an error box saying:

"Could not find background image. materials/console/background01_widescreen.vtf"

I don't think I messed with anything but the folders and .vpk file I was told to in the tutorial on how to install skins, but anything could have happened. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin Hasemann

    Just delete the .vpk and it should redownload.
