I don’t really know if this would be the right place to post this but my portal gun crosshair just shows the default half life 2 one. Like this:[http://i.imgur.com/eiBOY8t.jpg?1](http://i.imgur.com/eiBOY8t.jpg?1) This happens on source unpack and the steam version. Any help on how to return it to normal would be great. Thanks. EDIT: YES! I figured it out. hud\_quickinfo was set to 0 so anyone who ever has this problem just do hud\_quickinfo 1. ---

I have never seen this. I’ll go ask yalter if he’s got any idea. he’d be the man to know. ---

Try delete the text files in portal/resources then verify the cache, once they’ve been replaced, go into the unpack and replace the ones that are already in the unpack portal/resources folder with the same ones from the Steam Version you just downloaded. Might work. ---
