Installation Problem

<div class="IPBDescription">Installation Problem</div> I have the Counter-Strike retail version of Counter-strike. When I downloaded Natural Selection and tried to install it, I kept getting the message "You must be running at least version 1.1.1.0 of Half-Life or 1.3 of Counter-Strike retail in order to install the NSPT. Please upgrade, then re-run this installation."

But I downloaded the latest patch for Counter-Strike and I still cant play it.

I was looking at the webbed topics above and I tried downloading the dummy hl.exe but I got the same error.

Did I do something wrong, or is it a different problem altogether? <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Do I need Half-Life to play this mod or can I install it if all I bought was Counter-Strike?

    You did read the stickys right? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I read the stickys. I said so above. I don't see a solution to the problem.

    I downloaded the hl.exe dummy. When i tried to open it, it said "DLL File not found in path. Either incorrect compile option used, or system/file setup incorrect" "FATAL ERROR DLL(s) not found or created."

    And I still get the same error when I try to install.

    If I read your last post correctly, you tried to open the dummy file? If you did, I think you should read that sticky thread again.

    ok, I think there is some bad comunication here

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->When i tried to open it, it said <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Open WHAT?

    you should not be oppening anything (well you should be running the installer <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    you don't have to open or run anything

    just click the link, tell it to DL into your CS dir (If I ussed CS it would look like: C:\games\sierra\CS\)

    when the DL is done just run the installer as per ussual, when you tell it your CS dir it will look through for a properly patched exe (either cs or hl), it will find the hl.exe (wich simply LOOKS like a patched exe and is infact nothing). Once the game is installed simply open UP CS (or your fav server browser) nd point at a NS server.

    *chomp*


    so, yah when do you get this error?
