I noticed the amount of people that can't get this mod to work because they do not own Half-Life.

This is a HALF-LIFE mod. Not a Half-Life 2 mod, not a half-life: source mod, not a counter-strike: source mod. A HALF-LIFE mod. It doesn't work with anyother game but HALF-LIFE. That will have solved most of the problems with people not being able to play this mod. You need a CD-Key, Steam and Half-Life for this to work. (You also need the mod but that's obvious.) Other problems can be solved by checking that the mod is installed into a directory like this
CODE
C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\Half-Life
not anything like C:\Program Files\Valve\Half-Life. Then the mod will not work.
Thanks and hope that that clears up most of you problems.

No, you can't.

Steam's cleverer than that.

Stickied.

Cool, thanks Civvy.

I was pondering whether I should stikkay or not, when Civillian made it all so much easier tongue.gif
BTW I fixed a small error, steamm <- extra m. Just so you won't wonderwhy I edited your post.
Second edit: Moon Bride, such actions can earn you a premanent ban from Steam, along with the 1337 h4x0rz' ...

ouch, its a bit of an eyesore tongue.gif

I think we should shorten the title to "Where to install Brainbread" or "Half-Life required to play" or something along those lines.

Also, we should clean up some of the old and useless stickies, such as:
-How to deal with other forummates -> should be deleted (useless)
-the last man standing mode -> renamed to "No ZP flaming tolerated"
-Fiat Iustitia Pereat Mundus -> moved to offtopic, or deleted
-New Moderator -> not so new any more, delete
-BrainBread Nicknames -> redundant as most likely your forum name is your game name.

Hopefully, with these changes, general won't be so "top heavy".

ok. I have got half life and a cd-key (an original cd key) I play cs and dod all the time. I installed the game but when i click on the Icon it loads cs. The load command is as follows.

"C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\karl_hunt@ntlworld.com\counter-strike\hl.exe" -game brainbread +maxplayers 12

try

"C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\karl_hunt@ntlworld.com\half-life\hl.exe" -game brainbread

assuming you have a half-life folder. also brainbread should be in this folder...

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\karl_hunt@ntlworld.com\half-life\

Make sure you install and update half-life (by double clicking on the grayed out HL icon on your steam's Games List). Once installed, open Half-life and start one game (creates necessary files), quit half-life, reinstall BB, then it ishould work.

everytime i try to run the mod, i keep getting a message that says that it cant load the file client.dll

Posted by: DarknessGlams April 26, 2005 04:43 pm
It's a problem with the client server. Either try re-installing Brainbread or re-download it.

what is steam anyway? Is it installed with Opposing Forces oder Blue Shift?? Ive never heard about steam! Thanks!

Posted by: JesusFoo April 27, 2005 09:18 pm
it's valve's file delivery system, keeps all your crap in a nice easy to use unit and constantly feeds you updated files as they are released automatically.

http://www.steampowered.com/.

Orr what an ace description. Wasnt steam like one big bug at one time cos it crashed like nearly everytime you used it?

Posted by: Kajin119 April 29, 2005 12:52 am
This mod only works for half-life, not half-life 2? wat the heck?!? if it only works for half-life, and not half-life 2, why the heck did they even consider putting it on the half-life2 mod section? commen sense people!

Posted by: Shoot_me April 29, 2005 04:35 am
Actually, shouldn't the shortcut look something like the following?

CODE
"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 70 -game "brainbread"


If you try to launch the HL.exe program on it's own, you'll probably get an error unless STEAM automatically kicks in.

ok, who ever helps me with this gets a IMAGINARY COOKIE. When i am installing BrainBread and when i check "Launch BrainBread", i get this:

"Unable to Execute File:
c:\program files\valve\ steam\steamapps\tay_5000\half-life\hi.exe

CreateProcess failed; code 2
The system cannot find the file specified"

then i pressed "ok" and TRY to start up BrainBread, i get this message:

MISSING SHORTCUT
"Windows is searching for hl.exe. To locate the file yourself, click browse."

REMEMBER:
Whoever helps me gets a imaginary cookie
and i DO have Half-Life (both)

So... If we do NOT have a copy of the original Half-Life we are pretty much screwed from playing Brainbread, eh?..

I have it on my Steam for some reason. I do not have the original disc anymore (stupid, stupid me) but my steam has the Single player game on it. I wonder if that'll work... Probably not though...
