    Hey i just downloaded NS (5th time) and started the training level. I was about to step into the suit and the game closed and this message appered: SV startbound=127 is that supposed to happen?

    ...? Do you mean ns_training or the training course for HL?

    ns_training is not natural-selection, and the training course for HL only has tio be opened and loaded succesfully (You don't have to play the game, but it is a good game =] )

    Are you sure you don't have steam in offline mode?

    Look at your steam icon in your system tray. If it is red, or in any way different than the normal black and white steam icon, it's offline.

    What can you do if it only list Half Life Source listed? I have the original Half Life, can I install that and make it work? <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Turboearl, the only way to get Half-Life: Source is to buy Half-Life 2 Silver (like me) or Gold as far as I know - and these include Half-Life. Which package did you buy? Does Steam list the other "old engine-games" (Condition Zero, CZ Deleted Scenes, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress Classic, Day of Defeat, Deathmatch Classic, Opposing Force and Ricochet)?

    When some of them are listed but others not, maybe the *.gcf-files in your SteamApps-folder are missing/damaged.

    Hokay. I've installed HL1, installed NS, Steam works, everything is hunky dory...

    But there are no servers listed by Steam as Natural Selection servers.

    So I go into Spectate, and lo and behold, there are some. Got a map error right off the bat, then another times out...and then the third finally works, but it's just a fixed view. All boring anyway, since none of these spectate-able servers had greater than zero people on them anyway.

    But there are no listings in the Find Servers box, either within the Natural Selection mod or in the Steam client itself, for NS servers. Is there something wrong with my connection? Or is this specific to Natural Selection? ('Cause there's <i>hordes</i> of Counter-Strike servers.)

    Check your fillters. More then likly that's the case. If not add the ip in my Sig and go around looking for other ips here and add them to your fav. list.

    Hey there! I recently decided to play Natural Selection again after uninstalling Half-ife/Steam a year or two ago. Even after following these instructions to the map, NS still doesn't show up on the Play Games list on Steam. Both Half-life and Counterstrike work fine, but NS won't even show up on the list. Can anyone help me out? I'm really anxious to start playing again.

    Thanks for your time!

    AHA!!! It's the anti-cheat security!!!

    Setting that filter to All fixed it! Thanks!

    See, sometimes it's just that easy. Now if everyone else posting problems in here would take the time and listen, they'd be playing too.

    You're Welcome.

    Is it possible to possible to play NaSe without steam??? Maybe with a mod or sth.
  • KassingerKassinger Shades of grey Join Date: 2002-02-20 Member: 229Members, Constellation
    It certainly is easier to play with Steam. How come you don't want to use Steam?

    You can, just you will have no one to play with.

    The Steam client is also what connects you to servers.

    Won2 might still be up, but f it is, I doubt there are many (if any) NS servers.

    So stop using a pirated copy of HL and pay for it (as there is no other reason to not use steam).

    To play without steam:

    Install Half-Life from a retail CD. Update to the latest non-steam version.

    Then you need one of the old NS versions, that worked on won. 2.1 Should work (not sure), but for the sake of sheer awsomesauce you better get the original 1.04 client <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink-fix.gif" />
