I can't seem to figure out my error

FATAL ERROR
"MountFileSystem( 427 ) failed: SteamMountFileSystem(2604,427,0x1324fc74=,0x1324fd74) failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are available"

The only thing i could find out was that it is related to needing CS:S?? I don't know how i can get around this error.

Try restarting Steam, I have heard that fixes that error (though I have never run into it myself).

Restarting steam had no effect, still does the error, with a slightly different memory position (duh), so now i'm reinstalling the SDK to see if that will fix it. But so far nothing seems to be working.

If it has a different memory location, try restarting your computer.

By memory location, i meant the

SteamMountFileSystem(2604,427,0x1324fc74=,0x1324fd74)

(the numbers are different each time, i'm assuming it is referring to a location in memory, and it would be natural to assume that each time you try to run it, it is in a different place, not really sure, but every time the error comes up, the only same number is 427)

This is what the GameConfig file looks like, just in case

&quot;Configs&quot;

&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;}
&nbsp; &nbsp;}
&nbsp; &nbsp;&quot;SDKVersion&quot;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&quot;2&quot;
}

I reinstalled, restarted, tried again, and still no luck. The only thing that i can think of, if it is related to CS:S or HL2, maybe I'm missing a configuration somewhere.

I have set up Hammer and the files for portal as described in this howto:

http://kenjara.wordpress.com/2007/10/13 ... in-portal/

Hammer displays no textures from portal. Filtering and keywords don't bring up anything, however I see every texture from HL2.
How do I set up the textures correctly?

edit: thanks, my problem was the material folder export, it was moved as materials under materials. It works now!

***Edit the first run to set up the configs worked, but after trying again, i get the same error. Guess it was just a false hope.
