    ok, heres the deal:

    NS was not designed to be installed on DoD retail (it didn't exist at the time <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    Dod retail SHOULD simply act JUST like CS retail or HL, however there is a check written into the installer that makes sure you are up to date on your patches.

    If it says 'you muist have xxx version of HL or xxx version of CS' then your solution is stikied at the top of this forum.

    <!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->1. Download the dummy half-life executable file from <a href='http://www.natural-selection.org/downloads/hl.exe' target='_blank'>here</a>.
    2. Copy file into your counterstrike retail directory (in the same spot as your cs.exe or cstrike.exe).
    3. Run the Natural-Selection Installation.
    4. The NS installation will think the dummy HL.exe is patched correctly, and complete your installation. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    that is from MonsE's thread, I believe that we found that this works for DoD retail (it was originaly for non english versions of HL/CS)

    so, GL mate and hit us back with any more probs <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And it is on my list of code changes to make to the installer so that we can support DoD players as well. So this workaround will not be necessary for 1.1.
