    I dont really understand what your talking about.

    Go to the steam settings, you log out from that window.

    Open steam again and sign on.

    Well.. try right clicking any of the games you've installed click properties, and look at the status. Even though its greyed out it still might say ready to play.

    Just try launching a game anyway if you havent tried.

    Edit: 2 more posts and your at 1,000 gj <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Mmm...I realize that this is neither the time or place but....

    I recently downloaded Steam with the CS cache. Now if I install it, will I still be able to play NS (I'm assuming that I could just use the All-Seeing eye for this since it isn't steam-compliant yet...or is it?).

    Just tell me bottom line - if I install this mother right now will I still be able to play on WON NS servers?

    Yes, steam doesnt affect the old half-life or connectiing to WON.

    And when u get the cs cache u can still download all the other mods avaible through steam.

    Ns does work with steam, as a third party game. copy your ns folder to X:/program files/steam/steam Apps/your@email/half-life/ (and all other mods not officialy steam in there)

    Ns has a couple of compatiblity issues running on steam (like the hud menu is messed up) but they are making NS compatible in a patch in the near future.

    Thanks for the information, Cobra <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> Since there are the aforementioned compatability issues, I'm not gonna boher installing it until this patch is released.

    Again - thanks for clearing that up.
