Installed, Steam Restarted...GE Source STILL not appearing

<< < (3/3)

Proxie:
Do you have Source SDK Base 2007 installed?

Mangley:
Just to clarify, is the mod installed to your steam/steamapps/sourcemods/gesource directory? It must be installed there for Steam to recognise it.

For instance, if you specified a different location when you installed that would explain why it isn't showing up in your Steam games list.

If it's taking you to the store page on launch it means you don't own a game using the Source SDK Base and need to purchase one in order to run the mod. That's Steam's default behaviour when you try to launch a game you don't have all the resources for at least, it takes you to the page where you can get what you need.

Thanks again for the replies. After going through all the posts and checking against my most recent course of action, I'm still a bit confused, as I'm certain the version of Half Life 2 I own uses Source SDK base. Jonathan, your explanation makes sense, but again, Half Life 2 runs on my machine just fine.

I'll try uninstalling/reinstalling once more, but if that doesn't work, there isn't much else I can do. It's just a shame since the GoldenEye mod looks so well done and fun to play.

Thanks for all the feedback and responses, folks. Unless anyone else wants to chime in or PM me for assistance, I'd say this topic is done.

Go to the "tools" page in the Library menu and make sure you have "Source SDK Base 2007" on your list, installed, and have opened it at least once. Having just HL2 or any other Source game installed isn't enough, also if you somehow got HL2 through a free deal then you don't get the SDK base.
