Well, I didn't actually pirate HL, but my CD key is from a key gen due to the fact I lost my original case for the CDs.

I don't really care, since I only wanted to play LAN anyways. Oh, but guess what! MSC makes my CD key invalid. The funny part is, HL/TFG/DMC all work, only MSC gives me a CD key error.

Am I ever going to be able to play this neato mod with my brother? ;_;

NOTE: I do not use steam.

ATM, MSC requires Steam.

What do you use instead of Steam? Maybe if I can get a link to their web page, I can contact them, and ask what we may have to change for compatibility.

Meanwhile, HL1 goes for about $10.

I can't just have half life installed!?
And yes, just half life can play online, that's how it all started! Steam just wanted in on the profits >.>

This shouldn't even matter if I'm just trying to connect with LAN!

steam is owned by valve...valve made half life...

but it does matter because the half life engine is patched through steam, MSC is made to work with those patches, through steam.

Okay, whatever, I had leftover paypal money anyways. Got steam and HL.

Maybe I'll see someone online sometime, since I should be able to web play now.

My information.
But really Dontino, the WON system died sometime ago... against the general playing community's wishes :(

Too bad you weren't along for the ride, this whole issue could've been avoided :p

And Steam actually makes the games cheaper ---> You save gas money by not having to move.

Pimp that's just it, you need a legit CD-Key... Dontino was using a CD-Key he got from a random key-generator :)

i've tried many times to run MSC on 1.1.1.2 WON but it just does not work... with the newest patch, but i remember it working on original MSC 1.0 but everytime a weather effect came or it was night, the screen became a solid color.. eg Orange, Blue, Black.

so yeah, too bad
