    Ok, preferable to using that work around (if you are able to) is to install straight into the Counter-Strike directory. So when it asks for the HL dir (c:\sierra\half-life\) point it to your CS dir (c:\sierra\counter-strike\). This has worked fine for me for many mods (ns, s&i, dod to name 3) the only thing you occassionally need to do is alter some of the created shortcuts so they point to cstrike.exe instead of hl.exe

    Then Robert's your mother's brother.

    It is funny to install NS mod on the game that the NS community hates so much <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I wouldn't call it hate. I'd call it a preference for better games.

    NS was designed to be compatible with CS, and 1.1 should be compatible with DOD Retail as well. You should have no problems installing directly to your CS directory (to my knowledge).

    I'll stand forward and admit that I have CS retail. Why? Because it is FRIKKIN' IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AN ORIGINAL VERSION OF HL IN GERMANY NOW! Localize my ****. The CS retail version I found was english however, and I didn't want green blood, so that was my only choice. Otherwise it looked like people were vomiting all over the place. Bit of a shame I never completed hl singleplayer though. I thank MonsE for the installer, it worked flawlessly for me (and as I always delete desktop shortcuts and use the start menu, I never suffered from his little mistake either <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->).

    I WOULD say "You didn't miss much" because I didn't like the bits on Xen, BUT when I killed the final boss character I felt such elation I couldn't describe it. AND I hate boss battles in games, so wahey!

    HLSP remains one of the best single-player games I have ever played. I have beaten it more times than any other game, period.

    Haven't played SS2 (need to, I know), but I did love DX. My only complaints were (1) lackluster final level and (2) starting a new game was PAINFUL because your skills were so low. Hence I have only played through once (though I did get all 3 endings), and haven't had time to go back and replay it. HLSP, though, I have probably beaten somewhere between 6 and 10 times.

    God I loved HL single player - no other game or mod has come close for me, especially with all the hours I put into finishing it on hard difficulty (which is very difficult btw). Absolutely great game.

    I still don't understad why people buy CS when they can buy HL and download CS plus a bunch of other mods.

    He means people in the US, its one of 3 things: fanaticism (CS FOR LIEF!!111 IM GONNA GIVE G00S3M4N ALL MY MONEY!!!11), stupidity (HL SUCKS! I WANT TEH CS INSTEAD!!!111), or ignorance (All my friends have been telling me about this game called Counter-Strike, I think I'll check it out... Gee, I wonder what this Half-Life game is like, ah, who cares...).

    Ah, so. Didn't think of the U.S., mind you. There must be other reasons too though.
