Workshop Content Update Failed

*Captain_Russia* · 10-09-2016, 05:50 PM

I've been getting this recently, it's prevented me from downloading/updating in my game.

How do I fix it that DOESN'T revolve around reinstalling the whole game?

I really want to uninstall NKiber's Mod so I can play the game normally from now on.

Also try using the editor to sync to the workshop when installing things.

Usually caused by having too many subscribed mods at the same time.

At least for me, after I switched to using more non workshop versions of mods (especially the billion enemy addition mods), I've seen it drastically less.

Except most mods arn't non-workshop

I'll try the editor sync and see if that works

Ok I got a lead:

Error obtaining data for workshop package 000000002d2652c0!

Anyone know what package that is?

Most if not all workshop gros start with Zz So I'm not sure what the number is for.

*Captain_Russia* · 10-10-2016, 05:59 PM

this is what the editor log told when it hit an error and stopped.

I converted the number to a decimal (from a hexadecimal), which I presumed was the workshop package's id; it didn't exist.

I'm wondering why this haven't been suggested yet.

By the way, does "Workshop Content Update Failed" prevents you from entering package management menu?

If it does and you are having problems with removing that error, and by "NKiber's Mod" you mean my campaign, you can disable it manually:
Go to "\steamapps\common\Serious Sam 3\Temp\Workshop\41070\Subscribed\".
Files for my campaign have names "zz03b5602326c543b8.gro" and "zz03b5602326c50f8a.gro". In the same directory create empty text files and rename them as "<gro file name>.disabled", to disable my mod you should create files "zz03b5602326c50f8a.disabled" and "zz03b5602326c50f8a.disabled", and make sure you got rid of .txt extension. Works, just checked.

Alright, I figured it out.

Turns out I still had CJDude's stolen maps subbed, and after he removed them it was affecting my game's ability to emulate packages.

So, after I unsubbed those, it worked fine.

Sorry I forgot to mention this, yeah it does.
After it fails, even trying to enter that menu will hard-lock the game
