Whenever i enter the workshop (y'know, where gherman is) if i leave, the game doesn't load the area and only displays a black screen, with no audio and no controls, with no other option but to alt+f4 the game and reboot.
BUT i am playing in quite the old piece-o'-crap pc  so im kinda used to shit behaving weirdly. just wanted to atleast share this just in case.
