    all i had done was move my NS folder from the normal folder to the H-L folder in steam.

    well, I use the ns2.0 steam beta installer in flayra's thread in the beta forum here.

    Go download it, only problem is you'll have to reapply all of your stuff <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Just save your config files and models/sounds folders to seperate spot. Then when you're done installing, then move them back.

    Also, make sure that the server doesn't enforce file consistency.

    i'm using Drakes Custom Shotgun IN 3.0e... working fine...

    <b>You may be doing one of these:</b>

    <b>Have Cheating Death Running</b> -=- Just turn it off
    <b>Have Cheats Running</b> -=- just uhh, no
    <b>Have Modified a Required File</b> -=- after installing, select the NS folder, and check the "read-only" box in the folder properties screen (alt+enter is the keyboard shortcut) If you have Custom Models... make them read-only, and it won't read them as "Modified"... odd trick, but it works.
