You don't have Half Life installed.

HL2 and HL:S will not cut it.

hl deathmatch

day of defeat

it aint that i don't got the engine or files
i got evrything that i need to get it to work
according to this page and steam

Half Life is what you need (none of the rest of it matters a whit)

The error you are getting is due to Windows not knowing of your HL install (or it not existing).

1) Have you actually loaded up HL and played it in Steam (launch it and play through the hazard course)?

2) Have you reinstalled your OS with out reinstalling Steam/HL?

3) Have you copied your Steam/HL installs from another location (either on your computer, or from a different computer)?

Worst case, try uninstalling HL via steam (right click on it) and then reinstalling it via steam.

I am guessing this will be the fix.

i moved from disk once


but all other mods that i installed lateron do work
and do reconise it as steam
and a hl2 mod

so i don't know why it should be any different with this mod

Thansal

were these HL2 mods, or HL mods?

Basically, I gave you the answer. Windows/Steam doesn't see a valid HL install. The solution is what I said: Uninstall/reinstall HL via steam and then play the hazard course. It should do it.
