ghehehehe

Did you know that the autoinstaller of the mappack couldn't detect my cstrike folder.
my username is for ex. aejapfpaf@hotmail.com
and he made .com into .pts

and he made .com into .pts

Not too sure what you mean. If you mean it changed, aejapfpaf@hotmail.com to aejapfpaf@hotmail.pts then I would say you prob a have a directory called aejapfpaf@hotmail.pts at the same level as aejapfpaf@hotmail.com. In the case of users with multiple accounts they have to choose which account to install the map pack into.

lol, is it really that hard to manually point it to c:/program files/valve/steam apps/"account name"/counter strike/cstrike

Well, I'm not lying, not this time

I'll make a screenshot of it this afternoon (I have to download it again that's why somewhat later).

My real account name is: maksnaksbotel@hotmail.com
My cstrike folder is: C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\maksnaksbotel@hotmail.com\counter-strike\cstrike

And your automated installer found:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\maksnaksbotel@hotmail.pts\counter-strike\cstrike

When I pressed install, it gave the error that the directory didn't excist.

And I did manually change it of course, I don't see it as a big deal or anything, but I just wanted to mention it.

Also include a screen shot of the directory:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\

As I was making the screenshot I saw all those other weird things and I seem to have find what may have been causing it.
there's a file, as you can see in the screenshot, called "maksnaksbotel@hotmail.pts".
What it does or what purpose it has, I have no clue.

and the screenshot of the installer

Ok now THAT might make some scense. Why do you have all those different files named after your account with different extensions? What does the .pts extension mean?

Website · by **Maks** » Mon Oct 03, 2005 3:51 pm

Well, that is something I also don't know.
I think it could be the half-life2 demo that I installed when it was released, but I know for a certain fact that I myself didn't mean to make those files. And what that .pts mean... No idea.
I asked shabby what he had in his recently re-installed SteamApps folders and he had all the normal/standard files.. so I deleted all the unnecesairy files after I checked it.

by **FluffyKitty.deadm** » Mon Oct 03, 2005 5:25 pm

Yeah a directory structure like that would cause some issues. I have made a change to the install program to better handle that type of directory structure.

Maks is not an insane liar after all.
