Upon checking the beta branch, I noticed that the the 32x and 64x bit exe are not getting installed, only installing the hl2.exe. Trying to launch the game by entering into the command prompt hl2.exe -game "tf" ended up with the game crashing after loading for a bit.

The crash is Steam-related and was present prior to the 18 April 64-bit update, it's nothing new. It can be worked around by "going offline" in Steam.

this issue is present even on offline mode

As a temporary fix use ficool2/custom_items_games

Remember to launch game in insecure mode with -insecure
