I wonder...
What is if you just install the old way from cd and then the mod.
Just for offline gaming, dont this work ?

How would you download the mod then if you're offline and it would be stupid to play by yourself...

Buy the game, its worth it.

Due to updates to the HL engine over the years which are only available on steam, many of todays mods will never work right on WON HL
And that is why you need steam.

The first version of Natural Selection was released in 2002 if I remember correctly - the same year Steam was (or maybe it was 2003, I can't recall exactly). So, I'm assuming you'll still need Steam even to play the older versions of Natural Selection.

Have you downloaded Half-Life 1 through steam? If so, then install NS in to "Steam\steamapps\username\half-life"

That's not gonna work. Since you are already using steam, activate a and or your half-life key with it and download Half-Life through it. There is simple no other way.
