just for the record, this also happens when you run the installer and choose NOT to install CS:S, it's a known bug and there's a topic on steampowered about it
everyone who gets stuck in watar hazard does so cos they get off the damn airboat. you still need it. look for ramps and stuff. can't help you without a screenshot
look in options under keyboard to find the screenshot button (i can't remember the default), your screenshots show up in c:\program files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\[yourname]\half-life 2\hl2\screenshots
to post it here make sure you are in advanced mode not quickreply and scroll down to find the...
don't add stuff to config.cfg, make a file called userconfig.cfg instead and put them in there. you might have to start the game twice for your changes to take effect properly
there's too many indices for the index buffer, stupid, get rid of some!
kidding. try setting everything back to default in you cfg (i.e. revert r_rainradius etc.) then make the changes one by one till you find exactly which command is causing it, then post back. i'd hazard a guess that one...
did you go inside the hut and look at the map and stuff? the guy fits the gun (it's not a grav gun ;)) while you're inside talking to the vortigaunt, then when you come out and get in the boat they open the gate for you
cool, i guess you still have to mail your box to them tho'; i hope they send you it back. personally i'm only gonna buy steam games retail so i have this option, especially since this move indicates that there have been a lot of cases of game keys getting lost
you're about to get flamed for not searching, which i find a bit irritating since 99% of this forum is full of useless posts so it just took me 20 minutes to actually find an answer, which i'm gonna give you for nothing...
yeah, i only heard maxtor were good, never owned one, but that was a few years ago i guess.
you have an IBM deskstar and it still works? i'm amazed! i had 2 fail like i said, but 2 of my friends had them fail as well, all within a couple of months. i beg you to do a full backup! if you...
defrag! the fragmentation after installing and then updating is severe, and the soundcache files get fragged quite badly during play and cause a noticable increase in loading times.
most people hate defragging (actually most people don't even know they need to) because of the time it...
where's the romance in this thread? i'm all for marriage, if you love 'er go for it! just make sure and put a top of the line gfx card on the wedding present list! of course you'll have to bring the date forward, but i'm sure the lady won't mind that.
in the meantime, i think you're just...
i know the minimum spec says a dx7 card should work, but i seriously doubt your gf2 is up to the job. sorry. i play ok on a dx8 gf4 ti4600 which you can pick up quite cheap i think. do you really need to get engaged?
right click on my computer and choose manage. in the management console choose system information->components->storage->drives. on the right-hand panel look for drive model and put it into google, you should be able to find the manufacturer and specs
DISCLAIMER: this is only my opinion...
That's quite correct, it won't let you register the game to a new Steam account, otherwise Steam wouldn't provide any copy protection at all. But mouthing off on a forum about lawsuits isn't going to get you any help. How about asking for help nicely and actually providing enough information...
it's a big game. doesn't matter that you've got 1Mb, the server probably can't send that fast. use the Steam monitor and netstat live to see exactly what speed you're getting and if it's really slow change server by shutting down steam and deleting ClientRegistry.blob, hopefully you'll be...
