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

<< < (2/3) > >>

Fair enough. When I looked up how to download and install GE Source, most places just say to download it, extract it, and install it. In my opinion these should be very easy steps, but I found no executable file within the GE Source Zip that I downloaded.

I've attached a screenshot of the contents of the zip, as well as the directory to which I extracted it. If the location is incorrect or if there is something missing, please let me know. As I said, I didn't find anything to initialize the actual installation of GE, which is obviously the problem (ignore the bit I said about the 1.1 patch; it was outdated).

Thanks again, I appreciate your help and patience.

 

Proxie:
Doesn't look like the folders have files in them, try downloading the .exe version Here after deleting the entire gesource folder.

Mangley:
The article you followed seems to be part of a defunct and old wiki that isn't used. Unfortunately that is the first result that comes up if you search for 'installing goldeneye source' in Google.

major:
Really don't know what to say. Like proxie said, if you have the bandwidth I'd delete the old gesource folder and redownload using my or proxies link. Then reinstall.

Just as an update:

I removed the RAR folders completely and installed using the EXE file. The install was successful!

I shutdown/restarted Steam, and my system as well. I reopened Steam and GE Source still isn't showing up (FML, btw). I tried 'Adding a non-Steam' game manually by selecting its location, and that didn't work either.

The GE Source game file appears in my start menu (see attached), but whenever I click it, I'm brought to the Store tab in Steam.

Yes, I am just as confused as you are (add to that, frustrated).

Unless anyone's got any insight as to what the problem might be, and why Steam isn't recognizing my installed GE Source (there is a link between the two, as I said, clicking the game does bring me to Steam's Store), I may have to uninstall and reinstall again.

Cheers.
