When I double clicked on ns_install_v32 it told me that steam had to be closed to carry on so I did, then it said that there wasnt a valid steam install found and asked me where to install the game....so I typed:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\**my steam account name**
Is that the right place for the game, im used to the game knowing where its meant to be installed instead of me guessing..... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/marine.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::marine::" border="0" alt="marine.gif" />
It says its installed but its not showing in steam.... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />
I have Half Life:Source, Half Life Deathmatch: Source and also halflife 2 source and deathmatch source and lost coast along with counter strike source ad they came together with Half life 2 game of the year edition.
Half Life source works fine and so does death match so I dont understand why its giving me issues.

However, to save you looking, every thread has the following in it.
"I can't install NS on my Steam. I've got (Insert one of the following) Half-Life Source/HL2/CS/CS:CZ/CS:S/DOD/DOD:S installed, so why can't I install this?!"
"You need Half-Life 1 in your account, bound, installed, and played at least once."
"OMG WHY NOT WHAT I'VE ALREADY GOT"
"Please, read the installation guide"
They're the general giste of how the threads go. Natural Selection was designed with the GoldSrc engine in mind, specifically the one that comes with Half-Life, mainly because it uses some of the same files as Half-Life does. There <b>is</b> a way of getting it to run on CS:CZ, but it's unsupported as of about 3.0. No-one in the community (to my knowledge) uses anything later than 3.0 on a CS:CZ install, without Half-Life. So that method is pretty much dead as they come.
Congrats on finding the forums though <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
