Oh, and that email is sending....I have no clue how long this is going to take (even though supposedly I have a fast upload speed).

It would probably be faster to send over AIM, actually...

PH, not talking bout HLDM folder, tallking about the folder i mentioned above
"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\shawnmramsey\half-life 2"


yes there are saves in that folder. just look at how big the SAVE folder is and deduct that from the total amount.

yes, i understand, but what im saying is that it really doesnt matter eather way, seems to be some other issue, who know as of now, heh.


I was just wondering, because I can't play HL2 either, and there was an update for that as well. So for the guys that have both working, I was wondering if there was a difference in file size for them.

Oh yea I know, im not talking crap, just saying still not working, and i know it cost me $60 to pley this and ill be damned if i cant play it!

one thing I noticed, even after deleting the local game (deathmatch) content, and also manually deleting the folder, it still says there's 98% already aquired. then when downloading it goes from 98% to 100%, which takes abot 30 seconds. from there I have just one mdmp file. but if I click launch again, it adds another...
