    1) Most people should have Adobe Acrobat Reader, if they don't, they should get it... It's free at www.adobe.com
    2) Adobe format doesn't allow easy copy/pasting... Some people might want that ability...
    3) The real question is, where can we find an updated manual? The current manual doesn't show Alien structures costs or HP, and the marine structure costs are not right... Somebody should update it and include more accurate information (does Spike Shooter hit directly or where the sprite shows?)...

    We're hoping for an updated manual after 1.1. Before 1.1, it'd be futile.

    Adobe's .pdf reader is free. The whole point is that it's a <b>P</b>ortable <b>D</b>ocument <b>F</b>ormat.

    Yeah, very very small <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Anyway, adobe aren't the only ones who make pdf viewing software.

    The manual is kept online, perhaps thats why they chose html <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
    But I wouldn't mind a PDF of the manual, sure. But it would require a lot of reformatting to make it look good.

    yea!

    pdf is a great format and most modern computers come with it already installed. plus if u want to print just go download it for free (even though i have the version that costs money its not pirated either)

    Adobe Acrobat Reader = free, only for reading PDFs
    Adobe Acrobat = commercial, for making PDFs

    They shouldn't remove the HTML ver anyway...
    If anyone feels like making a pdf it's fine though

    where c:\SIERRA\Half-life\ is the directory you installed half-life in

    it may be (for me) d:\games\SIERRA\Half-life\
