Valve, correct me if I am wrong, but this is how I understand it:
OK nwburton, blueshift is alot like cs retail(I am pladgerizing from a description bryan socha gave me). It has the hl engine bundled with it, but IT IS NOT half-life. The HL patch should not work because you do not have hl. Just like installing the hl patch on cs-retail does not work. You can't even install the cs-mod patch onto cs-retail. Now, I have not seen a patch issued for blueshift. It sounds like the shipped version of blueshift came with the 1107 engine of HL? from what you are saying. I would suggest that you download and install the blueshift and opfor patches. Try this and see what happens. If this does not work, send an email to those addresses I sent you last week. If you find a solution or new information on this subject, please forward to the group. Even though this is client related and kind of OT it is new and would be nice to know. Also, many of us actually play the game too right? and it would be helpful to find out about updating blueshift rather than go through the same headaches you have been through. Let us know what happens. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, October 04, 2001 11:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: RE: 1.1.0.8 Sensitivity: Confidential The autoupdate doesn't find the hl patch, only patches for opfor and blueshift (which I have).
