Installed, Steam Restarted...GE Source STILL not appearing
basshead22:
I've followed the instructions to the 't,' and I'm still not seeing the game.
0. I've got a steam account.
1. I've got myself Half-Life 2 and it's working fine on my machine (Source SDK Base is contained within it).
2. I extracted the gesource files from the zip I downloaded to the SteamApps\SourceMods folder.
3. I downloaded and installed the beta 1.1 patch (after moving them to the appropriate folder and witnessing the arduous install process)
4. I restarted steam (made sure it was completely closed), and reopened it.
After all that, GE Source still hasn't appeared in my games list in Steam.
Did I miss or botch a step? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Enzo.Matrix:
I only have a question about step 3.
Beta 1.1?
basshead22:
It refers to a patch, not the version of the actual GE Source Beta (which is 4).
Here was my reference link:

Thanks again for taking a look. Just did a system reboot and still nothing. Just as a side note:
I downloaded the gesource zip and put in the correct file directory as I listed above, but I don't recall seeing or taking steps to actually installing it as a separate game (i.e. install wizard, etc.). I assumed that since it was just a source mod of Half-Life 2 (or whatever), I would just need the gesource files (all ~800MB) in the sourcemods path.
Hope that clarifies things as well, and thanks again.

Hm...after rereading the steps on that link, it seems pretty obvious now that it's an outdated page.
Either way, if anyone can set me rightside-up I'd appreciate the assistance.
major:
Well it seems you did it correctly... Just to verify:
-Have steam
-OWN a legal version of a source game(and have SourceSDK installed).
-Download GE:S Beta4 (Here)
-Install download
-Restart Steam
-Play Game
If you follow those steps, and still nothing... then there is something wrong that odds are we can't fix/help.
