Im pretty sure i installed ns right but everytime i go to join a game i get this message...

couldnt not connect to game server
Reason: Your .dll[cl.dlls\client.dll] differs from the server's

Ive tried a few different servers and get this everytime although every server was playin the same map. I dont know if this has somethin to do with maps or whatever but can you help?

    usually this is caused by having
    a differnt version of hl that the server.

    make sure you have most recent hl update

    First thing first is your HL client updated to the latest version 1110 i think. Also did you look in this <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=18&t=8223' target='_blank'>thread</a> for directions for installing with CS retail.

    *EDIT* Also all the NS updates are server-side only make sure you dont install those since they wont do you any good.

    If you are using CS Retail, Then I suggest you go buy Regular Half-Life.

    It's even cheap here in the UK £12.99. So for you lucky people who dont have to pay tax to burp in public it chould be realllly nice and cheap.

    There is nothing but problem after problem with CS-Retail

    As tempting as that is.... Id rather just find a way to fix this and save myself the money... Is there any way to fix this? Does anyone know???

    Ok, Lets give it a go :


    1. Uninstall CS AND NS

    2. Restart

    3. Install CS

    4. Download Updates (<a href='http://www.counter-strike.net' target='_blank'>Counter-Strike</a>)
    Note : Make sure you download CS - Retail Update

    5. Install Update

    6. Make sure you have the Latest Version of NS (<a href='http://www.natural-selection.org' target='_blank'>Natural Selection</a>)
    Note: As far as I am aware, there is only 1 version publicy released for everyone

    7. Play

    Hope it helps.
