the texture files are that big I'm afraid. Can I please ask you, where did you get that big file? I've been trying to find it so I can use the editor but no one is helping me. From Steam? Impulse? here?

It should be a kind of mistake. The editor is not that big, smth like 30 mb.

The editor itself is not that big, it's the texture files that are that big.

GOTY edition with editor is 5.61 GB.

Steams download of the texture files are 10+ gig (thats what everyone who has downloaded from them are saying.) They said they are uncompressed files and that is why they are so big. This is what the Steam client is saying to peeps who want to download the files from the Tools section. If this is wrong, then Steam has really screwed the pooch somewhere. But if GOTY is 5 gig, then it's possible the 5 gig is compressed and the 10+ files are the same files, only uncompressed.

I'm just trying to get 1 person who knows for sure, where I can download the game with the texture files so the editor will work. There is no place here to download the texture files, or on Impulse that I've seen. Can you tell me where to get the game so I can actually use the editor? Please?

Official Word!
The situation is the following: Steam is distributing non compressed textures (almost 10 gb), all other online shops contains the compessed Textures pack (around 2 Gb). All versions are working.

Thank you SOOOO much for your help I really appreciate the information. Now I can buy the game from Direct2Drive. Thank you again!

But where et how can we download this texture pack ? I haven't DL them with impulse, i have checked in the directory and there no option to dl them.

Thx for the answers, but i see 11gb too huge for textures, even if it are un compressed. Maybe the textures has extreme resolution?? thats the only explanation i could find.. if the textures are more than 1024 resolution, there is a possibilty that 11 gb its really the correct size.. but still.. omg..
