Unpack the release with WinRAR or equivalent 2. *WARNING* It is STRONGLY recommended to run this patch from the same HDD or partition as where you installed the game. And we STRONGLY recommend closing all other applications before running this patch. Run patch.exe and follow the steps until asked for the destination directory use: "\SteamApps\" being where you installed the game. *** EXAMPLE ************************************************** If "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\" is where you installed the game then the following would be the destination directory for the patch: "C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\" ************************************************************** Then once you have chosen the correct directory, continue following the on-screen instructions and START the patch. Your GCF's MUST be the exact ones from HL2: Update v3. If for any reason YOU have modified these files, this patch WILL NOT work for you. DO NOT interrupt this process and the patch WILL be succesful after some minutes, depending on your processor speed. BE PATIENT. 3. BACKUP your "steamemu.ini" files from the following folders if you have previously enabled online play for legit servers: \SteamApps\User\Half-Life 2 Deathmatch\steamemu.ini If you do not perform this backup, you will have to edit the .ini files again after the update (as explained in step 5 and 6). 4. Once the patch has been installed succesfully, go to the HL2DMInstaller folder and double click "hl2dminstaller.exe". This will update the needed HL2: DM files for you. 5. Replace your "steamemu.ini" backups to their respective folders to re-enable the games' online features for legit servers. If you fucked up your backups and you can't play on legit servers follow this step again. *OPTIONAL STEP TO ENABLE ONLINE PLAY ON -ANY- SERVERS* *CRACKED SERVERS STILL FUNCTIONAL WITHOUT THIS STEP* For those people who wish to play online on ANY servers, legit or cracked, you must first run STEAM from your start menu: Start -> Programs -> Valve -> Steam -> Steam Click "Create a new account..." and follow the on-screen steps to do so. You MUST create a NEW account which does NOT have any games subscribed. Once you have created your account, minimize STEAM to the system tray, while REMAINING LOGGED IN. Then, go to "\SteamApps\User\Half-Life 2 Deathmatch", in explorer, open the file "steamemu.ini". Here you will see a section for enabling online play: ; Enable online Steam play ; This enables the ability to play Half-Life 2: Deathmatch and Counter-Strike: Source on any server. ; Log in to the Valve Steam client with a valid steam account (no subscriptions to games needed) ; And enter the Steam information here ; For example: ; SteamOnline=1 ; SteamUser=MySteamUser ; SteamPassword=MySteamPassword SteamOnline=0 SteamUser= SteamPassword= First, change "SteamOnline=0" to "SteamOnline=1". Second, since you have a new account now, use your new Username and Password and write them into the steamemu.ini file and SAVE. *** EXAMPLE ************************************************** Your new username is "BOB" and your password is "dolomite". Your .ini file should look like the following to play online: ; SteamOnline=1 ; SteamUser=MySteamUser ; SteamPassword=MySteamPassword SteamOnline=1 SteamUser=BOB SteamPassword=dolomite ************************************************************** *** REMINDER ************************************************* Each time you want to play online on LEGIT SERVERS, you MUST have STEAM running and you MUST be logged into the same account as found in the steamemu.ini file! Mind you, this is the same thing as running steamengine.exe from the EMPORiO release and the same information is exchanged. Otherwise, if you ONLY want to play on cracked servers, you DO NOT need STEAM running at all. ************************************************************** 6. --- Half-Life 2: Deathmatch --- To play Half-Life 2 double click the "Half-Life 2 Deathmatch" shortcut found on your desktop. (HL2: DM is ONLY functional if you are in ONLINE mode) (Legit server play only if step 5 is completed) (Cracked servers functional with or without step 5) *** SHORTCUT NOTICE ******************************************* Our installers will make shortcuts ONLY to the REAL location where windows believes the desktop is. If you have played around with the desktop using TweakUI or other programs, you may not see the shortcuts on your "desktop" which is NOT where windows thinks the desktop actually is. So, follow these instructions to make your own shortcut: For Half-Life 2: "\SteamApps\User\Half-Life 2\hl2.exe" -steamlocal For Counter-Strike Source: "\SteamApps\User\Counter-Strike Source\hl2.exe" -steam -game cstrike For Half-Life 2 Deathmatch: "\SteamApps\User\Half-Life 2 Deathmatch\hl2.exe" -steam -game hl2mp being wherever you installed the game obviously. *** OFFLINE / ONLINE MODE ************************************* --- ONLINE --- Double click the file "Steam Online.reg" to put the game in ONLINE mode. Make sure your internet connection is active and the needed ports to play CS: Source are open (or turn firewalls off). Same for HL2:DM. --- OFFLINE --- Double click the file "Steam Offline.reg" to put the game in OFFLINE mode. --------------------------------------------------------------- The game MUST be in ONLINE mode to play Counter-Strike Source on cracked servers, or to host a cracked server, and you obviously must be connected to the internet. Same for, legit servers and HL2:DM. OFFLINE mode is for those who do not have a constant internet connection or for those who do not want any contact with VALVE servers and want to play Half-Life 2. Remember that OFFLINE mode will disable Counter-Strike Source online capabilities. So if you want to play online, follow the instructions above to enable ONLINE mode. Same for HL2:DM. Remember, STEAM only must be logged in and running if you wish to play CS: Source on legit servers. Otherwise, you do not need STEAM to be on at all. Same for HL2:DM. *************************************************************** ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ Contacting Vengeance: We are always looking for talented people to help fill our ranks.
