I have reinstalled steam, but this not working for me.

I guess we have to wait until it gets steam support...

I think that's the reason why HL2CTF is now dead

this could be such a great game if we had some servers and people could get on. i saw one
player on one of the two servers tonight and tried once again to get in and play. i got frustrated
and sent steam a toruble ticket, probably won't get a response or some automated response.

It is not dead!!! They are making now the official steam version. There will be more servers too. Here is a new solution for the problem:

"Menthish Hughmon That is a Steampipe issue. If you installed the Source SDK Base 2006 after Steampipe was implemented -OR- you allowed Steam to update the Source SDK Base 2006 to the new format, this issue appears. So far the requirement to reverse this is to uninstall the 2006 SDK Base and acquire the GCF files for materials, models, sounds and the base unaltered. Then launch Steam and set the Source SDK Base 2006 to "never update" ... we're just hoping that Valve has a fix for this."

And the psot about the new version:

"Details of all things that have been agreed on as far as updates to the HL2CTF 3.0 release will be coming very soon now... Wake up the kids. "

I might have a fix that doesn't require client changes. I have a test server running at 198.27.79.53:27023 that is Steampipe - could I get some players to join in and see if it works with their post Steampipe updated installs (ie: no GCF's)?

Does someone know hot to acquire the GCF files?

The latest Steampipe server installation (Windows only) works. Currently there is only one server but it seems to work, so no need to acquire the GCF files. We will launch a few servers to get games going again.

Everything has been tested using the new SteamCMD to setup a Windows-based HL2CTF 2.1 server without a problem. The instructions have been posted and we're trying to get the word out to get more servers up and running this week.

New Server Installation Instructions are now available on HL2CTF.com:
