Eng: I need help... When I start hlds.exe, I get error: Entry Point Not Found... The procedure entry point Q_UnicodeToUTF8 could not be located in the dynamic link library steamclient_orig.dll. What to do???

Esp: Necesito ayuda... Cuando intento abrir mi server con hlds.exe, obtengo el siguiente error: "No se encuentra el punto de entrada del procedimiento Q_UnicodeToUTF8 en la biblioteca de vínculos dinámicos C:\Games\Counter-Strike WARZONE NEW\WinNuke99\Counter-Strike 1.6\Counter-Strike 1.6\steamclient_orig.dll." ¿Qué hacer?

Eng: Thanks!

This is a standard exception when a program, or program 'signature' can not be found in the dll that the executable (exe) is relying upon.

It points to a version incompatibility between your hlds.exe and steamclient_orig.dll

The first thing to note is that files installed to MS windows systems do not normally have their date changed. Speaking to a friend that also has CS 1.6, and comparing dates you may be able to determine which of your files is out of date or an older version.

Alternatively, in Windows Explorer, you can right click on a file and the see 'Product Version' in the Details tab of the Properties window.

Using either of these methods you should be able to determine which software version is out of date.

If you provide date and version for each of these files someone may be able to confirm this for you.
