Right, I do know how to fix this but it involves Steam with Half-Life.
Unfortunatly it says my code has already been used (I have a legal copy).


I want to increase it's sound cache so that I don't keep getting the error:

S_Findname: Out of sfx_t

It's annoying when a Sven coop game dies with that.
I don't care how hard it is to fix it, as long as it DOES NOT involve Steam.

Both of your codes have been used?

Do you mean Blue-Shift?

Yeah, that code works too

The Blue-Shift code works for Half-Life?

It does, I think.

Yes it does, as I had to use a blue-shift code to get HL on steam

Ah, I will try this then.

It's registered, but how do I install it without downloading it?

You hit download files or whatever and it copies all it needs from your already existant HL installation.

Then updates.

OK.

And you do realise that we have both been rather dum.

There is no Blue-Shift code. There is an Opposing Force code and a Half-Life code. No more.

I have two copies of Half-Life (or rather two codes, one is a replacement due to the fact that one of the discs broke due to evil cd holders >nashes teeth<).

I used the second code and HEY PRESTO!!! It worked.

Unfortunately, I cannot connect my upstairs computer to Steam, and thus Sven co-op (on the upstairs network) will not be steamed.

This means that my problem will not be fixed.

Damn.

AND IT TRIES TO DOWNLOAD HL THROUGH MY DIAL-UP CONNECTION!!!


GAAAAAGGGGHHHH!!!!!

thats what its supposed to do
sorry cant help with your cache prob then

Never mind, you tried.

Anyway, the Opposing Force code WILL NOT WORK WITH STEAM (so says the support page).

So what everyone posted above was a load of crud. Mostly.
