yes...i did downloaded CS from a site. i dont' know if it was a warez page or ftp page...? :confused:
what is the significance of the hl.dll file? what does it do to the program? is it the main program to make the game work? :rolleyes:
well in any case..hl is missing and the game doesn't even start.
