<div class="IPBDescription">I hate CS - Need gaming badly!</div> I already scanned this forum for an answer to my problem but nothing seems to work.
So when I go to play NS via Steam, any server I try to join gives me the either the message "Your .dll[cl_dlls\client.dll] differs from the servers." or that my map.dll differs.
Now before you freak out and link me to the same thing. I already updated to 3.0 4a and have started up HL through Steam and used the training room.
So what options do I have?
If it matters I did update from an older version to 3.0 to 3.0 4 to 3.0 4a in that order.

2) Play HL atleast Once via Steam (just booting up the
training mission will do).
3) Download these 3 files:
ns_install_v3_b1.exe
ns_v30_b4_patch.exe
ns_v30_b4a_patch.exe
4) Install NS V3.0 Beta 1 (ns_install_v3_b1.exe) (This
should auto install to
steam\steamApps\your@email\half-life\nsp, if it does not,
move the NSP folder there).
5) Install NS V3.0 Beta 4 (ns_v30_b4_patch.exe) (point this
at steam\steamApps\your@email\Half-Life\ do NOT include the
NSP).
6) Install NS V3.0 Beta 4a (ns_v30_b4a_patch.exe) (See * at
bottom).
7) Search your Hard drive(s) for folders named nsp.
8) If you have more than one you messed up. Goto Step 3.
If you folow these steps properly you will not get
client.dll or map.bsp errors.
If you are positive you have folowed them corectly then
redownload the installer form a different location.
*There aslo seems to be a bug with, atleast some of, the 4a
installers. Try pointing it at steamApps\your@email\
instead of steamApps\your@email\half-life

Slightly More Advanced Steps
<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->1) Search your Hard drive for ns and nsp.
2) Deleate all folders named that.
3) Start from step 3 in my guide.
4) Make sure you are using the properly named files for
each step, the file name is listed with the step.
5) Make sure you point each file at the place listed with
the step
5a) The first one should auto install with no choice of
destination
5b) The second one goes to:
Steam\SteamApps\your@email\Half-Life
5c) The 3rd should probably go to
Steam\SteamApps\your@email\
6) After each install step in my guide (steps 4, 5 and 6)
search your hard drive for nsp
6a) If you find only one folder, and it is located at
Steam\SteamApps\your@email\half-life\nsp then you are good
to go.
6b) If you have only one nsp but it is some where else,
move it to that location.
6c) If you have 2 nsp folders, then move the one that is
not in that location, over writing all files when prompted.
6d) Each time you move an nsp folder search your hard drive
again for nsp to double check.
