No you need STEAM ^^

And that isnt 1.3 its the open beta of the 1.3

Its the same unfinished version that the beta testers play.

You do realize the news of the Open Beta on ESForces is rather old, right?
http://halflife2.filefront.com/file/;77016 <-- Latest release.

Do you run Half-Life / Earth's Special Forces through Steam? If not, use your valid key with your Steam account. Then Download Half-Life, and Install Earth's Special Forces. But in this case, extract the OpenBeta folder in your steam/steamapps/username/half-life directory.

The error you got is kinda typical for WON if trying to run 1.3

So i figured that may be the case.

you need to have half-life installed on steam with a legal cd key
when you open steam on the games tab do you half-life icon there?

no thats not how you install it (that wont work).
anyway from what you said i understand you dont have a legal copy of half-life .
if you wanna play esf open beta you need to buy half life(abaut 10$)
and register the half-life cd key on steam then you can download half-life through steam.
thats the only way to play open beta.

after you finished downloading half-life open the game once and then exit if you dont esf will not work .
after you do that put the openbeta folder in your steamapps half-life folder
then restart steam and you should have esf open beta in your steam games list :)

well thats means that your cd key is registered on someone else's account.
there is two things you can do. buy another half-life(i reccomend you that if you do. buy it through steam network that way there is no chance that your cdkey will be already used).
or you can email steam support asking for them to reset your cd key
but for that you need to either send them a picture of your recipe or a picture of your game box showing your cdkey.
just know that if you email them it takes ages for there support to responde
