    Do you have beta3? If you do, then the server you are trying to connect to is still running beta 1 or 2.

    easy way to find out what server you're playing on:-

    in the server list/browser, under "game type", extend the bar so you can see all of the name. it'll say what beta version it's running.

    more fun things <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    You want beta 3, nuff said (there are like 4 beta 2 servers left)

    check: steam\steamApps\yourEmail\Half-Life\nsp (if this folder dosn't exist you need to reinstall starting at beta 1) If there is not a file in there called xfire_installer.exe, then you don't have beta 3, go, download, install (point the installer at (steam\steamApps\yourEmail\Half-Life DON'T ADD THE \nsp)

    Ah, but one last question the beta 3 file name should be

    :ns_v30_b3_patch

  • ThansalThansal The New Scum Join Date: 2002-08-22 Member: 1215Members, Constellation
    ns_v30_b3_patch.exe

    I am guessing you either jsut left off the .exe or your computer dosn't display them

    this is a BAD thing, to fix it do this:
    1) Open Up explorer (your file browser, aka my computer)
    2) go to tools and "folder Options"
    3) go to the View Tab
    4) Uncheck the 'hide file extensions for known file types'

    well it should be close <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    And as for WHY you should...

    well it is basicaly a good idea to be able to see file extensions, it can protect against certain virii (if you see a file names yadayada.jpg.exe it was some one trying to hide an exectuable as a jpeg)
