Can you try to verify the integrity of your steam game files? Sounds like there might be a corruption. Let me know if this resolves your problem.

Sometimes during a new patch a file gets damaged or “corrupted” when steam is importing it. To fix the corruption steam recreates the file in its “default” state, which is unfortunately an empty file. This can cause all sorts of issues when information is missing that the game is looking for in certain cases. The best thing to do when something seems really broken when a new patch is released is to verify game files and see if that resolves the problems you are seeing.

That being said, there does seem to be an increase in files not importing correctly, we did a small investigation into it and I believe we found there isn’t much we can do because it has to do with steam validating files/recreating files.
