Guh! Steam Problems.

Sudzz

Alright, I did all the steps in that steam support thread. NS is installed on steam. But there are a few problems


1). I cant talk (type) in games after about 5 seconds upon joining. So I cant ask for help in-game.

2). I cannot switch weapons. I can scroll to next weapon, click it, but it stays on primary.

3). The menus look f'ugly. Some of the words are blurred to the max.

4). When I try to create game, it says half-life launcher failed.

i think, you play on bad ns file..

i see you have several game of NS...

How much file NS did you copy? If just one your steam is buged... erase all steam data and reinstall

"my steam is buged on friend game but that obstructs me of nothing"

Ill try reinstalling. I will edit this post with details.

Delete all NS games under your steam install. Then create a new Half-life/NS folder with a fresh install to there.

I don't think anyone has gotten the GUI working correctly yet. Sometimes It looks better than others....The rest of your problems might be due in part to your 3 or 4 installs of NS.

One is the right one.

One is 1.04
One is 1.04 backup file
One is rcbotns o_O

I hate steam man it did the same thing to me. I ended up uninstalling steam to try to restore my hl folder to its old glory only to find out it left it in shambles. I had to reinstall everything. I wont use steam. If they force me to use it I will complain. Im not impressed thus far. And its slow as crap.

Ok, got only one natural-selection on my list now. But still problems with changing the weapons, cant talk. and starting a new game.

well after many reinstalls and hitting steam with a marine i finaly got it to work, i have sucessfully played ns online with no problems at all the only problem i had was i was downloading and playing ns heheeh

was still fun

uninstall ns delete the info from the registry then reinstall

load up half-life so it creates the email folder with halflife inside copy ns reload up steam then go kick some **** <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

So delete ns files from steam, then reinstall into the steam file after?

I tried installing it, but it didnt work. It worked a while, then stopped.
