I understand that the questions i am about to ask have been answered time and time again but to be perfectly honest, i think the answers to the users questions are too breif and do not go into great depth to help even the youngest of kids.

I would like to ask the following:

1) When i downloaded esf 1.2.3 i read everything there was about installation help. Whilst going through all of these i noticed that you need either; HL1, CS or DoD.. In the account i want ESF to be playable in i do not have HL1 but i have CS...

I followed all of the instructions and installed it to my folder...

D:\Games\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\accountname\counter-strike\esf

After the installation i restarted my computer and found that steam was not picking up any 3rd party games. Does anyone know why?

2) I tried installing ESF the old way using won, although i know its dead it worked but it said there was no client.dll... i downloaded the fmod tool thing and even checked if the client.dll file was there. sure enough it was....

If my first question can be resolved do not worry about the second as i need to get it working on my steam...

Thanks,

Savior

A Condition-Zero key is not the same as a Counter-Strike key. CZ will not allow you to install ESF.

Well if you're going to download DoD why not get Half-Life too?

Afterall, if you've got Half-Life you can install all the free mods, that includes DoD the last time I checked.

In response to your question, I'm not sure if DoD works.

I am certain that it will. You may have to purchase it though.

You will need half-life to run esf. Do you have a legal hl cd-key ? Have you registered it in steam ? or are you using cs retail on won ?

An alternate dimension, because it isn't going to happen in this one. o_O

If you have a legit CD key, what's the problem? You shouldn't have to buy another copy unless you don't.

nah those cd-keys have been used on different accounts of mine....

But would it be possible for someone to re-make ESF in HL2?
