Half-Life
This is necessary to play the modification, so you need this first!
You can pick this up at your local game store for around £7 ($10) or buy the bundled "Half-Life: Generations" for around £15 ($18).
You can also buy online at Amazon or GAME and find it cheaper!
Installing Half-Life
Ok, so now you've got your discs, but how the heck do you install it??
Insert the CD into your appropriate CD-Drive and if you dont have Auto-run, enter "My Computer" and double click the HL Icon which has covered the CD-Drives Icon.
A window will pop up after the disc has been read, click INSTALL.
Follow the prompts and you've just installed HALF-LIFE!
Updating Half-Life
Current Version: 1.1.1.0
Now, you will need to UPDATE your half-life in order to play online. You can do so by downloading the current version (displayed above) from Fileplanet or any reliable source. Fileplanet offers free downloading, but you need to register to use the service. If you cannot download the update (due to bad connection) you can pay a small price for a CD.
The current update is around 100MB.
Getting Earth's Special Forces
To download the Earths Special Forces modification for HL, visit www.esforces.com/files.php and choose a mirror. The file is around 60-80MB I think :] and make sure to get ESF 1.1 BETA!
Installing ESF
Now that you have downloaded ESF, go to the folder you downloaded it to and double click the .exe file to execute the installing procedure. Follow the prompts and it will start installing.
Playing ESF
Double click your HALF-LIFE shortcut and when it has loaded select "CUSTOM GAME".
In the list which appears find "Earths Special Forces", select it and click ACTIVATE.*
Now you may play ESF Online! We hope you will enjoy this fine modification brought to you by the ESF Team.
Seph
* Alternatively, you can add -game esf to the half-life shortcut to instantly go to ESF
EG - C: \SIERRA\Half-Life\hl.exe -game esf -console
This will activate the game upon clicking the HL exe, and also activate the console aswell!
