    Hey turtle, good morning I'll try to help you, first of all when did this happen? just now?, and did you just install a new GUI? A GUI is a thing that changes the whole interface of CSS. One more thing when you uninstall CSS steam does not get rid of the custom content so when I uninstall a game to re install I delete the rest of the stuff that was left behind. (like custom skins, maps, sounds, ect, ect)

    I was playing zombie escape on a map with colour correction, i was gonna turn it off but i wrote the wrong command, i did matcolourprojection 0 then made it 1 again (i think) thats when it went all purple/black.. and it was yesterday. Ive tried installing a new gui, and deleting all the files when i uninstall it but nothing seems to work..

    Also, when i start it, the loading screen is just fine, and if i manage to join a server i can see the loading screen also..

    alright yea to turn off the correction it is "0" in the binary system 0=off and 1=on but that's computer stuff I don't want to confuse you in :P so make sure its on "macolourprojection=0" like I said "0" is off in the binary system, just check that real quick and make sure its set to "0" and tell me what happens also, if that does not work tell me what server it is and I'll try to recreate you situation on my computer. :)

    the problem is that maybe you excluided a file that is the "texture" ,because when is checkered purple/black is because that is texture error,so maybe the problem is that when you was installing another GUI and removed the default one,you excluided a important file that was the "texture",but i have another suggestion,try putting matcolourprojection 2,because i think that is like rdrawothermodels,the default is rdrawothermodels 1,but if you set to 2 (rdrawothermodels 2) you can saw trough walls and if you set to 0 (rdrawothermodels 0) you cant saw your hand/gun/player/props (anything),just the map,so try setting to 2...,maybe it works

    yea, I did not know what that command does, I thought it was an "off,on" command, so I was suggesting to turn in to "=0".

    I dont think you get it, i cant do anything.. i cant see the menus, or anything else like the console..

    edit, i got some help from a friend, and i launched css with -console and i managed to write matcolorprojection 0 in the console and it fixed it !
