Yeah I just figured that when it missed all of my break points. Well i can not be the only one with this problem. If i add -steam, then i get about 234983 errors starting with Can not find gfx.wad and ending with the last file in the valve pak0 file. then after those errors, I get a number of illegal operations followed by some other shit.
this is what did steam.dll into ...email/half-life/ created steamapp.cfg and placed it into ...email/half-life/ here is my config SteamAppId=70 SteamAppVersionId=0 SteamInstallPath=c:\steam SteamAppUser=my_steam_name then i set up VS6.0 to copy the dll into the correct folder(this is irrelavate for debugging), then i linked to the correct dll under in the debug tab as well as set up all the correct paths for debugging It will execute my mod fine WITHOUT the -steam but as soon as i put it in there, well yeah... you know the rest. I have looked over his instructions at least 6 times and I have checked them all off. I can assure anyone they are done correctly.
