The downloads of the maps are really slow. Is there anyway for me to
download a map pack with the most used ones?

In Steam, go into the game properties, select delete local game
content. Then right click on the game in Steam and select Install.

Well, open the Play Games menu in Steam, select Properties on the
Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, select "Delete Local Content" (or something
similarly titled), then select the game again in the menu to start
downloading it again.

Thanks. Can't believe I missed it b4. The game does not show "decals"
properly. You shoot something, and a white box appears where a bullethole
graphic should appear. I'm hoping this will fix it. BTW, SP is fine.

That's cool. If your problem is about decals not showing correctly
though, it would be a LOT simpler to delete the half-life 2 deathmatch
folder in your SteamApps folder. That would recreate a lot of files in
their default state, effectively starting clean again.

Of course, if you can affort the bandwidth/time to redownload the
40-so-megs it takes, then you can proceed.
