Help Getting Started

NeurotiqMime

I already ran the Training Course and all. I installed the game but there isnt an option on my Steam menu to play NS. It didn't create a 3rd party section. What did I do wrong? thanks in advance.

Sure you installed it into the right directory?

C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\Email Your Using\Half-Life\ns

Would be in the Third Party Games.

Did it finish updating the original HL?

Actually, just installing it too /halflife would make it work I think, it creates the NS folder on its own.

Make sure it's not in:

C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\Email Your Using\Half-Life\ns\ns

Have you run through the proper setup steps?

Did you right-click on Steam, and then click on "Exit Steam", then run the installer?

If you did, then you will find Natural Selection under the "Third Party Games" list, just underneath the "My Games" list.

BTW, welcome to NS (when you finally figure out where the starter is)

Would you be being rather downtrodden about your old clan's skill, comparing them to someone who can't find out how to run NS, or are you being genuine. If so, then seek help now.

Alcapwn

Being Genuine.

Yeah it did make a new folder, like Half-life/NS/ns/ But the contents in HL/NS folder is uninstaller and the ns folder

That maybe the problem, you shouldnt have HL/NS/NS, it should just be HL/NS.

Uninstall/reinstall, this time set the directory to install too email/Halflife .
