Fortress Forever is a "Mod" for Halflife 2 or any other Source games like CSS. Do you have a Source SDK game installed? It would show up in Steam in the Tools tab as Source SDK Base.

SourceMods is a folder you have to put most mods in, or they won't show up on Steam. Dun' know how to describe it, just works that way.

well then how to i delete it it doesnt show up in my remove programs thing

TheWetMule · 01-13-2008, 12:33 AM

Have you even installed it?

01-13-2008, 01:16 AM

well yeah if its sitting on my desk top i have installed it right
??? although it isnt in my start menu but when i deleted the desktop shortcut it said to go to the add / remove programs .. but it wasnt there..

If you have a desktop icon, you must have used the .exe installer. If so, did you restart STEAM after the installation?

Plus, like the guys said... check for the SDK.

01-13-2008, 05:15 AM

im trying to delete it now..

TheWetMule · 01-13-2008, 02:50 PM

Why exactly?

We've tried to help you, if you've gave up trying to install the game (Fault of your own btw, I've seen the whole "Is the SDK base installed?" Question, 3 times now, You still haven't answered it.)

Maybe someone should make a detailed tutorial on how to install the game X.x

BinaryLife · 01-13-2008, 03:40 PM

A small readme file wouldn't be a bad idea. Maybe link the wiki in there?

1. Verify system requirements/SDK requirement.
2. Install the .exe I created

Seeeee how easy that was?

I think he said in the other thread that he only has Steam...NO games.

*facepalm*

you need at least EP1, it has the SDK Base. you cant get the source engine for free...

own3r · 01-16-2008, 07:33 PM

I have hl2 original package... works fine, its true sdkbase is based upon ep1 codebase though.
