Title: need help running rival species!
Post by: karim on April 22, 2008, 06:20:07 PM
hello. i just downloaded and installed this mod.
i also then downloaded steam.
i installed the mod in the folder in which half life 1 was installed,
the thing is... i just cant run the game. after the installation was finished i opened steam but there is no PLAY GAME option on steam and rival species isnt anywhere on steam.
and neither is there an exe file in the folder for rival species.
id like to play this game but how?!?!?!?
also before the game was installed an alert popped up about how the installer for steam couldnt be found

that is really weird... i cant really help with it right now, but maybe our installer is broken by the new version of steam. I'd recommend to use a zipped package instead. while that usually is a bit more complicated it usually also just works ;-).
