I know its been said lots and lots, and I have checked all the old topics about it, and done what they say. It still doesnt work for me though. I think I have probably just done one stupid little thing wrong, heres what I have done:-downloaded hl2v7b2455backup.rar- extracted it into a folder of its own.-changed the basedir thingy to the folder which has all my gcfs.I then double click the hl2.exe and it says "Can’t load filesystem\_steam.dll"Can any1 help me? I want to watch the demos in HalfLife 2 done tricked by the way.
