ok, also i think ms NS IS **** ! whenever i create a lan game or something it just loads a halflife map
like i went hazard coruse, and it came up saying.. you are in the ready room, and some lady goes "welcome to the black.." and im like nooo hl again! whats wrong ? all my lans games dont work either, and ns seems to have no maps :S i got the 1.0 off the site and installed it like everyone else!
ok i just checked the ns dir and there seem to be about 4 maybe 6 maps, but when i go lan game they dont show up.. i think ns is just linking to HL but with the NS skin ? hellppp <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd.gif'><!--endemo-->
are you loading from the NS shortcut the installation creates for you? If so i had the same problem. Try loading the main half-life shortcut and activating NS as the custom game.
+ game ns you can aslo load it fromt eh custom game tab in teh hl menu system itself. also teh one in the start menu should work fine i also suggest - console as well

As for server I recomend getting <a href='http://www.hlla.net/' target='_blank'>hlla.</a> and finding a server which has a good ping.

NS version is 1.0 for clients, 1.04 for servers, though I would get 1.04 for the sake of completeness, it's small.
NS 1.1 is in the works, so keep an eye on the forums.
