<div class="IPBDescription">tech question</div>Does anyone know if NS will or won't install onto Blue Shift? Meaning Blue Shift is installed on the PC, but original HL is not.
Actually, BS is standalone, and it does (theoretically) support mods.
Improv - we have never tested this game. You will be able to install NS successfully by selecting your BS directory (the installer will complain a lot about not finding a copy of HL/CS/DOD, but it will still let you install). When that's all done, you will have a lot of shortcuts that aren't going to work - you will need to manually edit them to point to your BS exe.
Then, you are going to have to just hope that it works. We didn't test against BS due to a lack of users that actually own it (very few). If you have problems, post in tech support forums and we'll see what we can do. I ask that you do not get your hopes up though...
