· editedFor me it downloaded perfectly fine, i launched the game and when i decided to change games it didnt work, for some reason the expansions ( blueshift and opposingforce ) dont work, i even tried using -game gearbox ( or bshift ) in a shortcut of hl.exe but it didnt work, maybe you can fix it? and btw half life and uplink work perfectly fine, just the expansions, i guessed you put an old legacy version of the expansions with the latest build of half life? and the .dll's just didnt work?
