s_SteamAPIContext.Init() exception - HELP

[Rexal]

Hi All,

I've just created a new single player episodic mod but can't run it.
Using the latest (to date) SDK I keep getting this.

Unhandled exception at 0x61657453 in hl2.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation executing location 0x61657453.

And it doesnt want to run past line 581 of gameinterface.cpp

s_SteamAPIContext.Init()

I have tried commenting out this but to no effect.

/*
m_pSteamMusicRemote = SteamClient()->GetISteamMusicRemote( hSteamUser, hSteamPipe, STEAMMUSICREMOTE_INTERFACE_VERSION );
if ( !m_pSteamMusicRemote )
{
  return false;
}

m_pSteamHTMLSurface = SteamClient()->GetISteamHTMLSurface( hSteamUser, hSteamPipe, STEAMHTMLSURFACE_INTERFACE_VERSION );
if ( !m_pSteamHTMLSurface )
{
  return false;
}
*/

If anyone know of a fix for this as i have been trying to solve it for the last 2 hours would be great.

Yes and if you hadn't noticed there is a comment in that thread regarding the actual source of the problem, which may be useful information given that you copy/pasting someone else's solution into your code didn't work out properly.

If your mod is based on the latest code from Github, you need to run SDK Base 2013 using the beta branch because Valve.
