If users already have CS and Half Life installed you can reference the models without having to copy them. Ex for Half-Life use: ../../valve/sounds/weapon/mine_activate.wav
For CS use: ../../cstrike/sound/weapon/awp1.wav The CS variant I have not tried. I use the Half-Life variant all the time with out issue so I know it will at least work for the data you use from Half-Life. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tan Theodore Sent: Saturday, August 07, 2004 2:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Steam and Mods Is it legal? :S Thanks for the solution guys, but I know how to exract them already. It's just that some other players who haven't play this mod yet or wouldn't like to extract all the models, sounds and sprites from the .gcf file to the mod folder. Not forgetting the HL maps too. It going to take them a long while to extract each and every HL SP map. And another long while to transfer the CS models/sounds/sprites. So, I would like to cut short the installation time by maybe finding a way to 'auto extract' the neccesary files. Unless of course, there is no other way and players will have to extract them on their own. Means they might have to buy an original copy of HL to get the maps + CD key for Steam. >From: zmeko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Steam and Mods >Date: Sat, 07 Aug 2004 09:02:01 -0400 > >Tan Theodore wrote: > >>Hi Eric, >> >>I was wondering about my mod being on Steam because of a few issues. >> >>1) It uses Half-Life SP maps. >>2) It uses Counter-Strike weapons. >> >>Back in the old days, when HL is still in a box, players just needed to >>download the installer and let the installer copy the models from CS >>to the >>mod folder.
