cannot load localization.txt

Darkghost313 · 12-11-2011, 11:54 AM

What the hell is going on with this? This is the second time in a week that I have gotten this message after playing the night before. I verified files and all that, but for some reason steam wants to update the game when there is no up date then I get the cannot load localization.txt pop up telling me to make sure the game is run from the correct file. Is there a solution to this or do I just have to keep reinstalling and deleting the game every other time I want to play it.

Thanks

-Exit Steam

-Navigate to your Steam installation directory. (C:|Program Files|Steam| by default.)

-Delete everything in that directory EXCEPT the following :

steam.exe

steamapps directory ( Because ALL Steam's Game files are kept in here !!! )

-now if you have a copy of the game files, just past them on steamapps > Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 folder.

-Restart Steam & verify integrity of game cache.
Do this,exactly like i said

tried it, it did not work, tried to reinstall the game, did not work. Is there anything steam can do without totally ♥♥♥♥ing it up? I mean how ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is this?
