I think what he's trying to say is. He's getting connection problems everytime he joins a server, and his controls are not ESF's, they're Half-Life's controls. Which sounds like the mod wasn't installed correctly. If you're installing 1.1 for Steam, you need to download the Steam Pack, it was on the main page, until they redid it. ESF 1.2 should work for steam the moment it's installed, but you have to make sure Half-Life's data is downloaded before installing ESF.
