If you have installed Half-life 1 (NOT Half-Life Source) and run it once, and if the NS installer has run without error, then you should see Natural-Selection listed in your Steam games list.

Also, there isn't an NS.exe so to speak, it launches via Steam:

"...\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 70 -game ns -console

What he said.

Possibly you have not restarted steam since installing NS?


(the add non-steam game is really just a way of being able to launch other programs from steam, like if you want to be able to launch WoW from steam for some reason)
