    Steam Unpowered

    Yeah I got this yesterday (as well as the incredible dissapearing game cache) both problems were solved by shutting Steam down and restarting it 10 minutes later. We shouldn't have to do that but until the Steam servers respond in a more timely and complete manner (bandwith is still the...

    Steam = Spawn of Satan

    Also even if you installed the precached package Half Life will take some time to start up because it is being unpacked and set up for use. Which doesn't happen at installation. This can take a while depending on what kit you have.

    New Steam Installers Avaliable

    No NS installer BUT you shouldn't really need it. If you have HL working ok under steam simply install (or copy your current existing installation) under the SteamApps/<yourEmailhere>/Half Life directory and in theory, bob's your uncle. NS should now appear under third party games.

    why new installers?

    ^^ The voice of reason. Other people don't seem to be so lucky though. ;) I'm going to download the full installer just in case *something happens* but I don't really expect to have to use it.

    Steam is Great!

    Yeah when it's working it's great. Definitely two thumbs up! :) My only real concern is the release of Halflife 2 bringing it all back down to earth with a bump.. Although polls suggest people are more likely to get the boxed version so maybe that won't be such an issue. I really hope...

    Official steam announcement on news page!

    I think I'm right in assuming the resource verification dealie is thanks to not having the stuff downloaded fast enough. Granted this wasn't an issue under the Beta but I guess it's because there was a lot more bandwith floating around then.

    Normal Maps

    There shouldn't be much problem.. I mean if you're looking flush down the side of the surface it may look a little hinky but otherwise it should look great.. Normal mapping really is particularly groovy.

    Two good reasons to assume HL2 is delayed

    True true. On another subject entirely your twitching banana is terrifying.

    Nope.. But I filled it out anyway. :D (Using my spam mailbox of course just in case it's an excuse to send me more crap.) ;)

    ati have begun plugging half life

    Lol. Looks cool.. [stupid nitpicking] Although I'd expect boats and things to be a bit more on their sides than sunk into the ground if the water dissapeared. ;) [/stupid nitpicking]

    The key to successfully run Steam!

    Lol! Well uh, yeah.. I guess that works. I've just killed off all previous installs.. Deleted the reg keys the directories et al and rebooted/installed again with the CS/HL steam package. Which is working Ok so far. *touch wood* As long as the steam servers see fit to sign me in (about...

    moving over to steam

    I guess. I couldn't get steam to convert over my HL stuff anyway. It just froze halfway through the process. :( So I've kind of pretended that never happened and I'm soldiering onwards with the CS/HL only install of Steam..
