That's because you're not using Steam.

Steam's looks different.

It's a problem if the person you got the game from already registered that HL1 on Steam, because then you can't register it, obviously, and you won't be able to play it online.

Today I'm buying a HL1 by Steam! When I buy it, I have to download it (from where?) When I download it... What's next where do I enter CD-Key?? How do I play online?? And in my situation I already have installed Steam and HL. When I d-load HL by Steam, do I have to uninstall the current one, and if I do have, is it gonna delete my ESF-ECX installed in HL folder? PLZ answer these questions and explain me all the procedure. And sry 4 this much.

OK when you buy it through STEAM. Youll have it bound to your account. All youll need to do is go to the Games list in STEAM rightclick Half Life and select install. Then the game will be downloaded automatically from STEAMs servers and installed. You wont even have to put the CD-key in anywhere. Since STEAM will do that for you as soon as you buy it using STEAM.

Just remember that you have to be loged into STEAM while buying it.

You have to register your CD key code on Steam, then you can download it through Steam. That's the easiest way.

if you buy it by steam, its automatically registered to your account.


If you buy a Cd in a shop and then get a Cd key with that CD, then you have to register that urself.

If you purchase it on steam, it registers automatically, just go to my games and download it. Then install esf to the half-life folder

You can try to copy the CD. But HL should be installed. WON and STEAM have there difrences. It may not work if you just copy it into STEAM.

You can copy the ESF folder to the half-life folder in steam. If you're asking if you can copy the half-life folder to the steam folder, I'm not sure.

No, you can't. Steam won't be able to launch it since it isn't registered.

I copied esf in steam/halflife but it is not working. Tomorow, Vejta, or my other buddy will bring me esf CD. So, now, when I d-loaded HL, bought it, everything I got to do is installing esf into steam/halflife! IS IT?
