I have been playing CS for quite a while, until this new beta came out. I was having difficulties with logging on to servers with the client/server.dll file and other graphic stuff. So, before I dl'd 6.6, I decided to uninstall CS and halflife and try a fresh reinstall. Herein lies the problem:
After install of halflife(+patches) and CS6.5-
The shortcut to CS brings me to the CS console just fine. When I go to internet games, it says there is an updated version....which is bull because I played the game fine on servers 10 minutes b4! When it auto updates it, it says it found an update and starts to download this increadibly HUGE file that says it will be finished in like 345,000 minutes!!! Not right...So, I exit out, reboot, and try going thru the halflife console and activating CS...BUT OMG, the install is marked "yes", but file size is 0! TFC, however, is at ~32MB or so...but CS is 0?!?!?WTF!
Calmed down-
Uninstalled everything again, tried it again=nothing. I dl'd 6.6...4 hrs later=nothing.
Same problem. Tried opting to not look for updates and tried a server...thn another, and it said different/unmatching protocols.
I believe this has something to do with the big "0" in file size under the custom game activation list....but I am really stumped!!!!!
WTF is going on?
PS-
All files were placed in the dir c:\sierra\halflife(or whatever the default was) And please don't tell me CS is dead...I know it is old, but I'm waiting for Tribes 2.....
This is upsetting me sooooo much!
