You have to actually play the game first, so it makes a config file.

Ya. I had this too.

Play portal less then ten seconds and should work.

English, mother[censored verb]. Do you speak it!?

Darn, that's MALCom's censoring system interfering again.

By the way, many problems of the Source SDK can be solved by clicking 'Refresh SDK Content' in the SDK menu. The current issue is one of the few that have another cause.
