i bought the silver package a bit ago.

good value i think.

half life 2 is downloading.

half life source is also download.

can't wait to get going.

using a geforce fx 5600 amd hoping for the best.

if half life 2 plays pretty crappy i'll have fun with half life source until i get a new card.

I can play it on a Geforce440 go laptop card (only DirectX 7). It looks like crap but runs fine.

Good god. Ive been playing for 2 hours now.. Im amazed. Really. This game is incredible. The physics, the mood, Im ****ing losing my mind. Though this one part Im stuck in. Its this room you go into, its FILLED with explosive barrels. A whole bunch, then the little metal things start flying at you.. dont know where to go then. Anyone have a clue? Everywhere I go is a dead end... :huh:

I'm stuck in this room too. I figure you have to climb the ladder,. walk along the pipe,. go into the next room and turn the wheel. Then everything floods. I don't know where to go from here :no:

Anyone past this?

go up the ladder across the pipe to the other side, go through the tunnel up the ladder across the pipes to the other side of room, if you look down youll see a valve, turn it, go across into barrel room, down to sup lvl then through the pipe that was inacessable. from there get air(youll need it) swim to bottom free the Wire pylons to where they float, then jump on them to other side, congrats your through that maze

was it just me, or immediatly afte ryou left the train, you foudn out how to throw things, then immediatly started throwing baggage at teh combine and have them chase you around teh baggage cart all ticked, then continued to find everythign along they way and throw them at everything (even took the TV in the room witht he couple, yanked it from the wall and threw it at them)

its your system.. your overclocking and thats affecting the windows and game itself.. i've seen this happen on many other games.. it may work fine on some-but others it will just crap out.. :/

reduce the clock core by a few mhz.. see if that improves..

if its the pipe in teh barrel room, follow the pipe, dont try to go through that area where the buzzbirds came from

I dont get it though. I walk along that pipe and I cant jump that high. Theres a beam in the way. What the hell.. :cry:

    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
    • I can answer about the Linux bit. I only used AMD GPUs. I currently have a 9060XT (8GB) that fits my needs, I'm not a gamer, so I don't need that much GDDR. But lately, NVIDIA has grown a lot in the recent years. Oh, the horrors of NVIDIA drivers not working. But they have been getting better. I know a lot of members onm here that are running cachyOS and other distros, and are fine with a 4090/5090 variants. Really, though, I would stick with AMD variants.
    • Everything they say you can already do yourself on the registry by changing some things.
    • Artist's renderings are so much nicer to view than the real thing, don't you think?
