WTF!!! STEAM

Paddyjack · Posted: Sun Sep 14, 2003 9:10 pm Post subject: WTF!!! STEAM

I can't believe it. I finally succeed to install everything, then I choose a server.... and nothing happen...

"preparing to play TFC/DoD".............................................................................................. 5minutes later still nothing.

THAT IS BS

My days with Halflife are nearly over I think. Medal of Honors beckon

What the problem is is you are still trying to update TFC. You have probably gotten enough dled to be able to "play" it but you don't have enough to get in because for TFC you need the full thing to get into a server.

I don't know about any tweaking, but as far as getting the games to run, I'm just fine now. I had to follow some advice from SHAFT and blown65 on some things, like moving my DoD files to their steam counterparts. I've been able to play any mod I've installed (all but NS so far), and my framerates are great. I've also noticed that some of the options are way better than they were before, like the console. Before if I tried to change a bound button, but couldn't remember the command, and I had to go to the keyboard menu, I'd get booted. Now it's pretty easy to get there and still stay in game. I also noticed the chat thing also works in game, so that's pretty sweet too.

I don't know, the thing as a whole was a huge pain to get going, but now that it is working, I kind of like it better than before.

I love that they say best thing for anti-cheat. I had one guy running a speed cheat, and another I'm pretty sure was running a wallhack. On top of that a guy was testing to see if it would kick him for running interp and it didnt. GJ.
