I have half life 2 and steam installed. I downloaded NS installer v32,I ran it and it said setup has not detected a valid steam install,do you wish to continue?I swear i had steam installed properly and I clicked yes. I installed the program to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\hkwh\half-life 2 , I restarted steam. I checked my game list , NS is not appear on the list. I go to check C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\hkwh\half-life 2\ns , there is no *.EXE files inside.
what should I do?Please give me a solution, thanks. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/nerd-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::nerdy::" border="0" alt="nerd-fix.gif" />

    you mean half life 2 is not allow to play this mod?
    I have counterstrike , conditional zero , day of defeat , half-life 2 , half life 2 deathmatch , counter-strike source , can I play NATURAL SELECTION? I must have half life 1 installed instead of half life 2???

    You must have HL1 installed and activated before installing Natural Selection, yes.

    Since you do have Condition Zero, you might be able to get it working. (and side note: Who cares how outdated the HL engine is, it's the gameplay that is important!)

    See this topic (scroll down a lot) to see how to get it working with CS:CZ: <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=90801" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index....showtopic=90801</a>

    <!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->6. NS Without Half-Life (CS:CZ REQUIRED)
    -------------------------------------------------
    Assuming you are reading this section, You do not own the origional Half-Life. But this does not mean you have to live without Natural-Selection... That is, if you do own Counter-Strike: Condition Zero. This mini-tutorial will show you what to do to trick steam into playing Natural-Selection for you.

    1. Broswe to your account directory. (i.e. C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\email@site.com)

    2. Find the folder called Condition Zero. Copy it. So, now your account directory has "Condition Zero" and "Copy of Condition Zero."

    3. Rename "Copy of Condition Zero" to "half-life" exactly as I have it written.

    4. Double click your new half-life folder, and delet the "cstrike" and the "czero" folders.

    5. Install NS here, like you would normally (Section 5 covers that.)

    6. Open up your Play Games menu. Right-click on Condition Zero, and click "Creae desktop shortcut." Press OK when it notifies you that it made a shortcut to CS:CZ on your desktop.

    7. Right-Click the new shortcut on your desktop, and click properties. Now, replace the text in the "Target" text box with this text:
    CODE
    "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 70 -game "ns"

    Make sure that it will target your Steam.exe (it differs for computers.) When you are done, click OK.

    From now on, whenever you want to play Natural-Selection, click on the icon on your desktop, and it should work.

    <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    I followed every steps of that instructions , but when I click the shortcut on desktop, it didnt activate the ns , but the shop and advertisment of Half-life 1 appeared , $9.95 dollars... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />
