Note.pngNote: Feel free to edit below, now, but if you can, try not to touch the Archive, as its all old now, and I didn't want to get this page real long.

Nope

There should be 2 yes i know, but i only see one btw, for the command thing i put ""C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe-beta srcsdk0122" and "C:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -beta srcsdk0122 - and yes, i have steam downloaded into the C drive.

Did you trying adding the beta if you did, give me what you put ( even if you added some other stuff, and with the other drive and ill see) (ill edit it also)

This is what I have: "E:\Program Files\Steam\steam.exe" -beta srcsdk0122 , and thats how it looks Also on a side note, sig your comments yeah, so I know who I'm talking to, lol.--Gear 23:22, 24 Jan 2008 (PST)

It wont let me edit the other one so i made a new one it still doesn't work so can you give me a pic of how yours looks like? -- Cooldude -TIMESTAMP DUDE!

I can get a picture yes, but I'm not sure why its not working. You sure you did everything right, and that maybe nothing else is out under Source SDk command options and sort? Maybe you left -ep1engine in there by accident.--Gear 02:38, 26 Jan 2008 (PST)
Just revert everything you did so far and add -ep1 as Source SDK launch option. --Baliame (talk) 04:17, 26 Jan 2008 (PST)
Yeah that works too.--Gear 04:32, 26 Jan 2008 (PST)

At the moment you have two choices:

  1. To use the most recent stable (i.e. non-beta) release of the SDK you must add "-engine ep1" to the SDK Launch Options (which is accessible from the Source SDK properties window) in order to work with the episode 1 engine. You will then see a list of games similar to this one. To go back to using the Episode 2 engine games, you simply have to delete the "-engine ep1" flag. After that you will see a list of games similar to this other one.
  2. Alternatively, you can use the latest release of the SDK (which is a beta version, and might have some bugs), which makes it unnecessary to use the engine -ep1 flag to launch the tools (in this case you should remove the -engine ep1 flag) because it already lists all the games available in the drop-down menu (games from both engines, ep1 and ep2). To use this, you must add "-beta srcsdk0122" to the steam shortcut "target" field, like so (in that picture where you see "-beta sdk" it should be "-beta srcsdk0122").

Note to Gear: perhaps you should join these conversations together, since they are all about the same thing, and would give Cooldude the example. Note to Cooldude: Don't click the "+" button, next to the edit button, just click on the edit button itself so you can edit the whole page. That way it will "let you edit the other" posts you've already made. --Etset 08:53, 26 Jan 2008 (PST)
