Before you play

Why does WebXash not find my game files?

Select the root folder containing valve. In a ZIP, valve must be at the archive root rather than inside another folder.

Why is the Internet server list empty?

Automatic Internet discovery is unavailable. Multiplayer needs the address of a compatible Half-Life web server.
