    Hi there!

    I think this Walkthroug is very good but i have a big problem. I only have CS:CZ an i have tried to follow the Walkthrough but i have the German version of the Game and the Walkthrough does not work on my machine. The path where CS:CZ is installed is
    C:/Valve/Condition Zero. I have copied this Folder and renamed the new Folder "half-life" i have deleted all "cstrike" and "czero" folders. And installed NS into this folder. Then i made a desktop shortcut and used the Target Steam.exe at my machine.
    C:/Programme/Valve/Steam/Steam.exe -applaunch 70 -game "ns" but when i start the exe the "Search Games window appears. I have tried everything but it wont work. I love playing NS and i have played it much on the old WON Server but now i have no idea to play it. Do you have any Ideas? Please write it here or email me at steff87@onlinehome.de

    PS: Sorry for my poor English

    Very good tutorial. Unquestionably deserves a sticky.

    @Erazer try naming the Folder 'half-life' and not "half-live"

    Thanks. I don't think it will be stickied, but as long as the regulars use it buy linking, the same effect will be achieved.

    Yes, you can. If you go out to your local PC games shop and buy a copy of HL1.

    This doesn't work anymore.

    I done everything you said but when it came to the properties of the Counter Strike: Condition Zero shortcut I couldn't find a Target text box so I couldn't put c://program files/steam etc..

    more specifically, NS without HL hasn't been possible for some time now.

    Which file?
  • GelflingGelfling Encinitas, CA Join Date: 2007-07-05 Member: 61499Members
    The download is now impossible to actually download from your site.
    I've been a long time player of NS but in the past few years the link has failed typically only in one browser. Now it fails in all of them. I mentioned this problem years ago and now its simply not possible.
    Your site:
    https://unknownworlds.com/ns/download-files/
    has a link to the download file:
    http://www.unknownworlds.com/files/ns/ns_install_v32.exe
    (this redirects to http://67.18.238.10/files/ns/ns_install_v32.exe which is apparently a dead page)
    I just keep getting a timeout no matter what browser I use. Is the file actually still there? Did someone set the file permissions incorrectly? (or file owner,etc)
    I miss this game so much.

    Yes I think some registry key changed? It was a little while ago now.
