help for esf 1.3 open beta

[Grega]

Steam is free. And it sucks for changing $ to € in Europe (yes, I live in Europe).

Not my point. He said he using STEAM to play. Yet he does not own a half life. Meaning He CANT be using STEAM to play ESF.

ok ok! what is this i cant play beta version, this is the Fatal Error i get "could not load library c:\program files\steam\steamapps\MySteamUserName\half-life\esf_openbeta\cl_openbeta\cl_dlls\client.dll" could anyone help me? Is it just me getting this error or some other people! If anyone could help me ill be checking this post!

 

[Grega]

Something about that just looks horribly wrong.

The "cl_openbeta" part

Its not supposed to be there. Could be a faulty instalation. Can you doublecheck the directories in the esf_openbeta foulder. And if you have a cl_openbeta directory and a cl_dlls directory inside then move the cl_dlls directory into the esf_openbeta directory.

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

Uhh what? lol can u give instruction so monkey can understand it (me) or what, i reinstalled it already and redownloaded so yeah

 

[Grega]

go to your esf_openbeta directory and see if there is a foulder named cl_openbeta.

If there is then go into that foulder and see if there is one called cl_dlls

If thats how it is then cut the cl_dlls foulder and paste it into esf_openbeta directly. Meaning move it out of the cl_openbeta foulder.

Then again there is not supposed to be a cl_openbeta foulder in the first place. Hence why i said your error is weird.

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

Ok i dont have cl_openbeta but i have a folder names cl_dlls, should i make cl_openbeta folder and put all stuff in it same that are in cl_dlls, and For ESF i cant join some servers says reliable channel overflow or something like that

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

ok i played around with it! and it works!!! thanks for all the help! u rock! hopefully this thread helps someone else, but this is what i did, sence i dint have a cl_openbeta folder i made a new one in c:\program files\steam\steamapps\MySteamUserName\half-life\esf_openbeta, then i put cl_dlls in cl_openbeta foulder! (cl_dlls is a regular folder with things in it)

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

and the beta dont work for me...

 

[Dokutayuu]

and the beta dont work for me...

Crash? Freeze? Any error messages?

Remember, the open beta isn't the most stable thing in the world.

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

no no the game works fine it just that i cant find any servers and i tryed to creat one and i couldnt join and for like Goku Picclo hero choses there were sniped smg stuff like that wich is for half-life 1 i think its from there but thats the problem.

There are literally no servers for the open beta due to its instability.

What resolution are you running at? I think I recall the character select screen not working properly at lower resolutions.

 

[Darth Revan]

the open beta is less stable than a nuke

It only works for resolutions of 1024x768 and abbove while using OpenGL mode to be exact.

Youd be surprised at how stable nukes really are.

 

[hleV]

Youd be surprised at how stable nukes really are.

Yeah, compared to Open Beta: Final.

 

[Grega]

Yeah, compared to Open Beta: Final.

No i really mean it. Weapons like that are made to only detonate when wanted. No accidents allowed. If a warhead would fall someplace, but it didnt have the detonation command issued to it. It wouldnt blow up.

 

[DaisukeJP]

try not using bots..

bots make u quit the game..

it's an bug..


bots aren't being fixed in open beta..


bots will work @ final version..

you have to play the server without bots..

 

[Greg2k5]

How can you use STEAM if you dont own a half life O.O

You can use steam with out any games at all.

 

[Grega]

You can use steam with out any games at all.

Not to play a game you cant.

You either play a game though STEAM or not. Thus you either use STEAM or not.

 

[Mike_Fo_SHo]

resolution i use is 1280 x 1024 its open GL and dont work

 

[bobmundo123]

ok.. well is your sceen 4;3 or 16:9.. widescreen.. or normall.. cuz if you widescreen you should not be using tha at all and open GL should work fine.. if your monitor goes unresponsive... i think your monitor can't support the res size.. or worse case scenario.. u needs a new graphics card.. or just reboot your compueter.. open it up again and see what happens
