So I’m having issues installing the old engine. First off, when I try to extract it, EVERYTHING is missing. A prompt appears telling me that a file is missing from the folder and asks me to skip or cancel. The next issue being that it does not appear in my Steam library even though I installed it to /sourcemods. ---

Use winrar or 7zip instead of Window’s default extractor. ---

I have man. I never use Window’s extractor. ---

Can you show me what the folder looks like for you, once extracted? ---

Oy… If you don’t mind waiting a day or so, I can rezip OE once and for all. I don’t know how BitRain compressed 4044, but you’re not the first person to have this problem. My upload speed is really slow, so I can’t promise it immediately. ---

I can wait, and I’ll be grateful if you do. ---

In the meantime, maybe try redownloading this ([https://mega.nz/#!Sp1VUIhL!4SMOMV0WOaWwcK8HuT4evSXFverrw-ROuzf0bCpFnEs](https://mega.nz/#!Sp1VUIhL!4SMOMV0WOaWwcK8HuT4evSXFverrw-ROuzf0bCpFnEs)) and using 7zip specifically. edit: actually fuck it, don’t download that, it doesn’t contain an autoexec ---

yeah, but actually, you should probably wait until I upload my copy, since that version doesn’t contain necessary config files ---

That seemed to do the trick. Now, do speed running tools come with the engine or do I need to install those? ---
