I've got a CTD problem, while hosting a game, loading next map it gives me random CTD

On Procmon it shows me the following:



Any ideas?

I want to start and END a campaign with my friends

Thanks for the tutorial! It really helped me out, since the game crashed before even entering the main menu when I updated it to the last version.

Just to correct you for one mistake: "HKCR --> HKEY_CURRENT_ROOT" - it should be "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT" (it is OK on the picture, but incorrect in the explanation).

Yeap you're right....thanks for the info.

Well done...

L4D2 won't start after the first time i startet the system.
So when i reboot, it runs again for one time by starting the *.bat from stryder loader.
Windows failure-message told me that "steam_api.dll" is missing!
After applying this Message the Intro's startet, and after them (when the Menu starts)
i get a CTD...
I tryed re-install's, CFT Checks... etc. Searched these and other Forum's for help.
Only this Tutorial helps with a Regfix!

The strange on it is, that these failure comes with Audio-/Videodriver update!
And when I startet the "left4dead2.exe" direct, there was no missed "steam_api.dll".

However, these Tutorial helps if someone else get this crash!

Thanks for this Tutorial!!!

Another question is... Is it right that the "left4dead2.exe" try (only) to start "steam.dll" ?
I found very much entry's by Monitoring, where "steam.dll" "cannot found".
Keep in Mind i've got the Razor Release with Non-Steam (by Stryder) Version 2.0.0.3!

The problem with crashes is that there are so many different releases and so many different updates and some files may be missing or causing problems. I used CF Toolbox to have a clear release, the cracked client.dll from razor and the Stryder's loader and it works perfectly. I uploaded this release on ThePirateBay. If you want it see my Left4Dead guide for the link.
I also get the error message with steam_api.dll but when I click ok the game runs normally. Make sure Steam is not open when you play. I think it's loader bug. It will be fixed.

I played a few days with mates, with the same release and updates... till this crash!
The only thing i changed, was Audio-/Videodrivers.

I've Steam Installed, but never running while playing L4D2.

My question is, should a non-steam application run a "steam.dll"?

I could regfix to my steam folder, BUT should i do that???

There are no error messages or CTDs, i just spectate these errors in Procmon.

Creating the Files wont help alone, you need to have the right Informations on the Folders/Files



Which is like



So remember kids this will not fix anything unless those and many more values match exactly

So where do I edit these Information?
The Regfix solution wont work anytime.

Here we got my CTD-log from Procmon....

What could be wrong? My CTD´s was fixed when Steam released an update, but when they released a new update after that, it fucked it up again.. The only diffrence is that it CTD when someone shoot the Witch before. Now it is just when the map starts, when you "fly" in to the character i.e Ellis.

Peace!
